***** and I went to the WW2 museum in New Orleans. Brand new, big, still expanding, expensive and boring.
The Germans and Japanese were bad; Roosevelt was good; it was all very sad.
Nothing about the Hitler Stalin pact. Nothing about the role the CP played to keep us neutral, until Uncle Joe got attacked.
And Roosevelt’s concentration camps? The American people did it, not Roosevelt’s executive order (funny how that works).
It was shallow, not much to look at (the captions and film shorts looked like they were written for Sesame Street), and relentlessly politically correct.
I usually think I will spend an hour or two in a museum, and end up spending the whole day; this time, we payed parking for the whole day, and left after two hours.
Not recommended.
But, we had dinner in the Neon Pig restaurant in Tupelo. Best hamburger in the world!
…should be classified as a disease. It’s a public-health tragedy that hasn’t long been. To think that we shouldn’t fight it because it’s “natural” is the naturalistic fallacy. Nature is not our friend.
