Good night, gents.  Just a little weather update:  Wind has kicked up quite a bit here.  But it should all be gone by the time I wake up in the a.m.  Couldn't have planned it any better.

Highlight in History

On August 28, 1955, Emmett Till, a black teen-ager from Chicago, was abducted from his uncle's home in Money, Mississippi, by two white men after he had supposedly whistled at a white woman; he was found brutally slain three days later.
