Or worse yet, here comes the storm before the rain. On June 9, 1953 nearly 94 Worcester, Massachusetts people lost their lives to a series of tornadoes that still today live on in the memories of the survivors. The outbreak actually began it's wrath on June 8, and in Flint, Michigan when an F5 hit and killed many just after they finished their dinners and were settling down in their Eva Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07588637190174238493noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319264922469720353.post-67674920778230723872011-06-05T10:09:00.000-07:002011-06-05T10:09:09.791-07:00On this day....tragedy and scandalI find it interesting that while I do my research for posts on this blog, that any given date I can see patterns in the events that happened on the same day, in the same month, however a different year. Sometimes it can be amusing - then sometimes it can be ironic- then, however, there are days like to day when it is tragic. Today my research uncovered an ominous atmosphere- an aura, I Eva Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07588637190174238493noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319264922469720353.post-7134165328223603742011-06-03T00:02:00.000-07:002011-06-03T00:05:44.920-07:00On this day...can you hear me now? Thank you QUEEN!Can't imagine life without those bluetooth ear buds? Or how about those fond memories of a rotary dial? Some of us may even still be carrying around memories of telephone numbers that actually started with two letter...UN4-something or other comes to mind as I remember my grandmother's phone number when I was a child.

Many women today are outspoken and considered independent - while there may be some in today's society who still frown on that, it is no longer considered a mark of the devil to the vast majority of the population. Many credit this somewhat newly found freedom known as equal rights with the dedication of those before through the suffrage movement However a deeper look into history Eva Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07588637190174238493noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319264922469720353.post-77109031289612638072011-06-01T08:34:00.000-07:002011-06-01T10:45:17.462-07:00On this day....tragic irony
Louis Dembitz Brandeis made history as being the first Jewish American to be confirmed to the United State Supreme Court. The nomination came from then President Wilson who wrote:
I cannot speak too highly of his impartial, impersonal, orderly, and constructive mind, his rare analytical powers, his deep human sympathy, his profound acquaintance with the historical roots of our institutions Eva Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07588637190174238493noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319264922469720353.post-25709064583301763862011-05-30T11:08:00.000-07:002011-05-30T11:42:57.742-07:00On this day....two women made history
Two women- both of whom put aside their feminine physical appearance to don the clothing of power - mens, and both of whom have come to make history by doing so. One heard the calling of the Lord, and the other answered to the screams of her own inner poverty.
Joan of Arc, on this day in 1431, was burned at the stake for heresy.

Yes, perhaps it was a premonition of the tragedy that would mark it's year anniversary - If you listen closely it is almost as if you can hear a foggy darkness coming to life after what first sounds like the whispers of hope - a desperation chimes in of Eva Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07588637190174238493noreply@blogger.com0
