Excerpts:

                                   For friendship
                                   make a chain that holds,
                                   to be bound to
                                   others, two by two,
                                   a walk, a garland
                                   handed by hands
                                   that cannot move
                                   unless they hold.

                                   ---Robert Creeley (b. 1926)

1789 -- Bourbon Whiskey, first distilled from corn,
by Elijah Craig, Bourbon, Kentucky.

Taken sanely & in moderation whisky is beneficial, aids
digestion, helps throw off colds, megrims & influenzas.
Used improperly the effect is just as bad as stuffing on
too many starchy foods, taking no exercise, or disliking
our neighbor.

 --- Charles H. Baker, Jr., The Gentleman’s
Companion, 1939

1897 -- Dorothy Day, pacifist anarchist, Catholic
Worker founder, lives.

1974 -- (or '75?) In a federal court, charges are dropped
against eight Ohio National Guardsmen for their role in
the deaths of four antiwar protestors at Kent State
University.

         "Even conceding all the mitigating or extenuating
         circumstances, the Guardsmen literally appear
         to have gotten away with murder."

1974 -- Beloved & Respected Comrade Leader Lt.
William Calley is paroled after serving about three
years in "prison" (under house arrest in his apartment)
for overseeing the murder of Vietnamese civilians
(possibly   as high as 500 or more) at My Lai.

 60 or 70 U.S. infantrymen had entered My Lai early
one morning & destroyed its houses, its livestock &
all the inhabitants that they could find in a brutal
operation that took less than 20 minutes. When it was
over, the Vietnamese dead totaled at least 100 men,
women & children, & perhaps many more.

                Only 25 or so escaped, because they lay
                hidden under the fallen bodies of relatives
                & neighbors.

2000 -- US: In election day aftermath only Martin Sheen,
in the West Wing,  seems to be the only sure president the
country has...as the electoral college is poised to prove
nobody's vote counts.

                                         “One thing you can’t hide,
                               Is when you’re crippled inside.”

                                                         --- John Lennon
