Good morning, WorkingStiffDave.

Pope Francis, dead at 88.
Yeah, just heard that on the radio while I was taking my son to the bus stop. RIP. He was a good one.

Played all the puzzles very late in the day, but never posted them yesterday. I could have gotten us to Page 3.

Last day of my long weekend. Got the sandwiches made and am waiting for my other son to be ready so that I can take him to the bus stop also.

I've got a pile of dishes this morning, too. My wife's family didn't leave until 1:am.

I avoid news these days, but oddly enough, I saw it on a FB post from ESPN FC about La Liga postponing their matches because of his death.

I'd say Easter was a success though. It was my first time making short rib and it was delectable. (If I can say so myself). I served it over a bed of mashed potatoes. Things were so hectic at the time that I wasn't able to get a photo.

I'm sure it was delightful.
We went to both of our parents' houses, so we ate like kings all day long. I think I woke up this morning still full.

Today is Monday, April 21, the 111th day of 2025
with 254 to follow.
The moon is waning. Morning stars are Mars, Mercury, Saturn and Venus. Evening stars are Jupiter, Mars and Uranus.
On this date in history:
In 1509, Henry VIII became king of England after his father, Henry VII, died.
In 1836, with the battle cry "Remember the Alamo!" Texas forces under Sam Houston defeated the army of Mexican Gen. Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna at San Jacinto, Texas, opening the path to Texas independence.
In 1913, California state Sen. Ernest S. Birdsall of Placer County stated in an interview with United Press that the citizens of California demanded the prohibition of "aliens ineligible for citizenship" from owning farm land. The California Alien Land Law of 1913 was aimed at discouraging immigration to the state.
In 1918, Manfred von Richthofen, German World War I flying ace known as "The Red Baron," was killed by Allied fire over Vaux-sur-Somme, France.
In 1954, U.S. Air Force planes began flying French troops to Indochina to reinforce Dien Bien Phu. The city later fell to communist Viet Minh forces.
In 1960, Brasilia was inaugurated as Brazil's capital, moving the seat of government from Rio de Janeiro.
In 1967, a Greek army coup in Athens sent King Constantine II into exile in Italy.
In 1975, Nguyen Van Thieu resigned as president of South Vietnam after denouncing the United States as untrustworthy. His replacement, Tran Van Huong, prepared for peace talks with North Vietnam as communist forces advanced on Saigon.
In 1987, the bombing of a bus terminal in Colombo, Sri Lanka, killed 127 people and injured 288.
In 1992, gas explosions ripped through the historic center of Guadalajara, Mexico, killing more than 200 people and injuring hundreds of others.
In 2005, the U.S. Senate approved the nomination of John Negroponte to be the nation's first national intelligence director.
In 2008, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced a link had been found between contaminated drug thinners from China and 81 deaths in the United States.
In 2011, John Ensign, R-Nev., resigned his U.S. Senate seat amid a budding ethics scandal. Ensign admitted an affair with his former campaign treasurer earlier and had been under Republican pressure to step down.
In 2017, a Taliban attack on Camp Shaheen near Mazar-i-Sharif, Afghanistan, left more than 100 Afghan soldiers dead and dozens injured.
In 2023, the U.S. Supreme Court left in place the Food and Drug Administration's approval of mifepristone, allowing access to the abortion drug while legal challenges continue.
