@HavePurple@goddek@Delta The firearm wasn't stolen. The case was just pried open and the locking mechanism broken. TSA said it wasn't them when they looked on the cameras, and there were no cameras in the baggage area I was told.
@HavePurple@goddek@Delta My husband declared a firearm, labeled so also labeled unloaded. American Airlines. On arrival at our destination, locked firearm case had been pried open and the case broken beyond repair. Had to replace the case to return home. All AA said was sorry.
In 1996, English TV presenter Alain de Cadenet asked legendary New Zealand born fighter pilot Ray Hana, who was 70-years-old, to do a low pass in this Spitfire fighter plane as de Cadenet spoke to the camera
@MichaelJecks I don't think it ever ends. My late husband is still getting junk email and letters in the post nearly seven years on. He doesn't need, double glazing, Medicare advantage plans, or an extended car warranty.
@shelleyscribble@stan_sdcollins Thank you Shelly for the sad news. I loved reading about her, and her sweet little quirks and antics, the conversations between Jersey and her Dad. I hope your Mum will be ok; it's very sad when you lose a dear companion. 🥹
@barnsleysime So I didn't have to clear it out. It was a very peculiar sensation, standing over the road from where I used to live, and seeing absolutely nothing left. I am not at all sure which experience would be worse, having had to do it, or having no chance at all.
@barnsleysime I found out that the place needed a new roof, which they couldn't afford. The house was sold to the fire department next door and was burned to the ground as a training exercise. The firehall built over it and extended their building.
@barnsleysime In later years, my uncle and his family took over the house, and my grandmother went into care. By that time, I was living on the other side of the world.
I went back in 2000 to have a look at the hamlet, now a bedroom community for the nearest city.
@Julia_Morgan3 When the rumbling stopped, Jules Naudet turned on the spotlight on his camera to help locate the men. Father Judge was found on the floor. He had been struck on the head by falling debris. INSIDE the tower. That video is available on YouTube.
@Julia_Morgan3 In the video filmed by the Naudet brothers, Father Judge was captured pacing back and forth in the lobby of Tower 1, praying. When tower 2 fell, he went with the fire fighters following Battalion Chief Pfeifer, running for cover. with them.
