Ann, try this... ...an American folksong in which a father is singing to a child who tries to put off bedtime by asking many questions? The tune resembles the old song "Who's Gonna Shoe Your Pretty Little Foot", and the only verse recalled (out of several) is: "Why can't a mouse swallow a stre

OT - 1917 Halifax Explosion

An interesting bit of trivia I did not know. From Todays "Writer's Almanac". And it was on this day in 1917 that an accidental explosion destroyed a quarter of the city of Halifax, Nova Scotia. It was the height of World War I, and Halifax was serving as an important port city for many of the

Re: OT: Steam Powered

It's interesting since most Diesel-Electric locomotives are developed here. GMD and GE are driving the development of high-horsepower D-E motive power. GMD makes a fair number of locomotives for the UK and European market, many of which are nothing more than SD40-2's in new carbodies (Which is

Re: OT: Photoshop elements 5.0 and 3.0 - prices
