Today is Saturday, Sept. 2, the 245th day of 2023.
There are 120 days left in the year.



Today’s Highlight in History:

On Sept. 2, 1945, Japan formally surrendered in ceremonies aboard the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay, ending World War II.

On this date:

In 1789, the United States Treasury Department was established.

In 1864, during the Civil War, Union Gen. William T. Sherman’s forces occupied Atlanta.

In 1935, a Labor Day hurricane slammed into the Florida Keys, claiming more than 400 lives.

In 1958, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed the National Defense Education Act, which provided aid to public and private education to promote learning in such fields as math and science.

In 1963, Alabama Gov. George C. Wallace prevented the integration of Tuskegee High School by encircling the building with state troopers.

In 1964, one of America’s most decorated military heroes of World War I, Medal of Honor recipient Alvin C. York, died in Nashville at age 76.

In 1969, in what some regard as the birth of the Internet, two connected computers at the University of California, Los Angeles, passed test data through a 15-foot cable.

In 1998, a Swissair MD-11 jetliner crashed off Nova Scotia, killing all 229 people aboard.

In 2005, a National Guard convoy packed with food, water and medicine rolled into New Orleans four days after Hurricane Katrina.

In 2008, Republicans assailed Barack Obama as the most liberal, least experienced White House nominee in history at their convention in St. Paul, Minnesota, and enthusiastically extolled their own man, John McCain, as ready to lead the nation.

In 2019, a fire swept a boat carrying recreational scuba divers that was anchored near an island off the Southern California coast; the captain and four other crew members were able to escape the flames, but 34 people who were trapped below died.

Ten years ago: France released an intelligence report alleging chemical weapons use by Syria that dovetailed with similar U.S. claims, as President Bashar Assad warned that any military strike against his country would spark an uncontrollable regional war. On her fifth try, U.S. endurance swimmer Diana Nyad became the first person to swim from Cuba to Florida without the help of a shark cage.


Five years ago: Sen. John McCain was laid to rest on a grassy hill at the U.S. Naval Academy, after a horse-drawn caisson carrying the senator’s casket led a procession of mourners from the academy’s chapel to its cemetery. A huge fire engulfed Brazil’s 200-year-old National Museum in Rio de Janeiro, as firefighters and museum workers raced to save historical relics.


One year ago: Actor Jane Fonda revealed that at age 84 she had been diagnosed with cancer. Fonda said she was undergoing chemotherapy for non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Barbara Ehrenreich, the author, activist and self-described “myth buster” who in such notable works as “Nickel and Dimed” and “Bait and Switch” challenged conventional thinking about class, religion and the very idea of an American dream, died at age 81.

Rose Gold or something like that.

Shot decent enough, 10-over 80. But got home before I realized I left my putter cover and pullover in the cart. Not sure when I'll be able to get them, wasn't playing at our usual course, and this one is like 35 minutes south. Fuggin sheesh.

Regardless of whether you think his music is fluff, he was a premier entertainer.  His band was a collection of premier musicians.

Anyone who calls Buffett's music "fluff" lacks a sense of humor. "Come Monday" and "Margaritaville" are great songs.

"Headin' up to San Francisco
For the Labor Day weekend show
I got my Hush Puppies on
I guess I never was meant
For glitter rock 'n roll
And honey I didn't know
That I'd be missing you so
Come Monday it'll be all right
Come Monday I'll be holding you tight
I spent four lonely days
In a brown LA haze
And I just want you back by my side."

I'd sell my soul to write something that clean.
