For some reason - mostly because I'm listening to a Josh Groban song with those lyrics . . .
First off: I would just like everyone to know, that my shortest sister has answered the trivia question correctly: Lancaster was Red, York was white; however the internet would not allow her to comment. So I have been instructed to say that she not only answered it correctly, she answered it first (this is straight from her email) "so that every one that enjoys your blog will know for sure that intelligence DOES run in the family" . GO Karen!!!!!
Other than that - lots of homework, lots of regular work, some serious freakout sessions, a not so good night in the cafe, and an early bedtime tonight.
Love you all - please keep praying.

The Black Hole of Calcutta was a small dungeon where Indian troops held British prisoners of war after the capture of Fort William on June 20, 1756. According to a disputed account by a survivor, 123 of 146 prisoners died of heat exhaustion in the confined conditions, though historians now believe the number to be at most 43. So there.
