#OTD in Weather History, 48 years ago, on November 10, 1975, the ore freighter SS EDMUND FITZGERALD was lost with all hands in a severe storm on Lake Superior.
She is perhaps the best known shipwreck on the Great Lakes, and today we remember her loss. 1/

Love that both Atlas and Bachmann #6 turnouts diverge at a 10-degree angle and that both Atlas and Bachmann only make a 10-degree section of curve in 18” radius, thus defeating the whole point of using a #6 turnout.

Actually we all got hit with the fatigue bat so I may not even make it that far
Cindy has to work tonight so I offered to take my in laws over to my model railroad club.
We decided against it because of the hour drive each way (fair) but might do the next best thing instead:
Put up model trains around the Christmas tree.

we may not all be witches but it is important that we all watch out for signs of cackling, in ourselves and each other
these are hard times and things can wear you down more than you think, until the kettle on your head doesn’t seem like such a bad idea after all

a few candidates have talked about this but any Dem planning to run in 2028 should make it explicit: the next DOJ will, in fact, go after you if you’re funding this awful ballroom, or any other pay to play deals you make with this administration
Dimon on why JPMorgan Chase is not funding WH Ballroom:
We have an issue, which is anything we do, since we do a lot of contracts with governments here and around the world, we have to be very careful how anything is perceived, and also how the next DOJ is going to deal with it.

everyone will agree to my national housing program if we make the housing all art deco and mid century modern
My zoning code would only have two rules: glass tower skyscrapers should be adjacent from stonework ornamented ones to maximize cool reflections and there should be a Jamba Juice in every airport terminal. Otherwise, build whatever you want.

And World of Tanks and World of Warships almost certainly but they don’t have hour counts.
