Serendipity in History

I wrote this post more than 2.5 months ago, but it is no less true for me now. I said then:
I just read that 7/6 is GWB’s birthday. Far be it from me to wish him ill, because I wish no man ill. But I would’ve preferred that his candidature for POTUS go down in the flames it deserved. I guess it’s not fair game to lament his birth but his actions, policies and mean spirited hypocrisy as President are to be much lamented. Many will say “Why bother?” My dear wife is one of the many! So I’ll leave it as it lays. His presidency is a mess and he deserves it but not the American people nor those outside the US who are affected by this disastrous rule!
It’s odd to note that this is also the Dalai Lama’s birth anniversary.
Finally, on ‘42/7/6 the Frank family took refuge in an attic apartment to try to save themselves from the Nazi monsters on the prowl in Amsterdam. That attempt didn’t work well for some of the family, since they were found by the Nazi thugs in 1944.
