Sure, billy. It's way more than a day old. Apparently 2014. There are several variations that can be found on Google. But, here is one. https://motleynews.net/2012/08/23/pi...t-71-obituary/ -
Heard on the NYC marathon broadcast today that last month New York governor Andrew Cuomo, who is presumably of Italian extraction, last month signed legislation to add a second Z to the spelling of the name of the Verrazzano bridge, named after Giovanni da Verrazzano, also presumably of Italian extraction, who indeed had two Zs in his name, thereby correcting an error that has existed since the bridge was built in the 1960s.Comment

from Wikipedia
the Geminid meteor shower
The Geminids are a meteor shower caused by the object 3200 Phaethon which is thought to be a Palladian asteroid with a "rock comet" orbit.This would make the Geminids, together with the Quadrantids, the only major meteor showers not originating from a comet. The meteors from this shower are slow moving, can be seen in December and usually peak around December 13–14, with the date of highest intensity being the morning of December 14. The shower is thought to be intensifying every year and recent showers have seen 120–160 meteors per hour under optimal conditions, generally around 02:00 to 03:00 local time. Geminids were first observed in 1862, much more recently than other showers such as the Perseids (36 AD) and Leonids (902 AD).Tim - Retired Problem SolverComment

How cold is it? It is so cold that Republicans and Democrats are reaching across the aisle in Washington so they can huddle together for warmth. Just kidding.Comment

I went swimming this morning then had to dodge the Orion Spacecraft to get out of town. There were numerous roadblocks, detours, and cranes removing traffic lights along the route to NASA.https://www.norwalkreflector.com/gal...tream&lp=4&p=1
