Econoblog

Americans remain gloomy about economy
It's so bad here, it may be a good time for some of them to leave.

In 1914, transcontinental telephone service began with the first test phone conversation between New York and San Francisco.

In 1967, an accidental rocket launch aboard the supercarrier USS Forrestal in the Gulf of Tonkin resulted in a fire and explosions that killed 134 servicemen. and was survived by John McCain, who later returned to active duty & continued to fly missions until he was captured by the North Vietnamese and subsequently tortured for 5 years until his release. Due to his multiple arm injuries he cannot comb his own hair, nor make a wicked free-throw shot like Obama, but I guess that's just the cost of character.
