The cruelest month...

[pat]

April 15, Lincoln's death. April 17, Bay of Pigs. April 18, bombing of U.S. Embassy in Beirut. April 19, Waco. April 19, Oklahoma City. April 20, Columbine. Oh, and April 20 is also Hitler's birthday. Pretty dismal week.

Thank God for Earth Day (April 22).

What distinguished company I'm in. Or something.

Well, you're not alone -- I was born the same *day* as the Bay of Pigs. While my mom was in labor, U.S. backed insurgents were attempting to overthrow Castro.
