I remember where I wss and what i was doing when I heard the hews of Elvis' death. It was no less devastating than when I heard that President Kennedy had been shot. I harbor three (mortal) iconic figures in my memory, FDR, JFK and Elvis.

I have been to La Grange to run a local race when I was in graduate school at FSU last year. It was a great visit. I have a friend who went to college there.

I studied Agent Orange in graduate school for environmental health. I found the "Virtual Wall" with the profiles serving as memorials to deceased soldiers. I found one from La Grange, GA who died in 1969. May he rest in peace. He apparently died from burn wounds near An Khe, which had a latitude of about 16.9 and longitude of 107. The war was hell.

The Vietnam War was very tragic. Agent Orange was found to be a cancer-causing, toxic chemical agent. It was a defoliant that had been thought to be harmless. Veterans now get disability benefits for exposure if they have the illnesses recognized by the VA for Agent Orange.

Daily Horoscope for December 24

Aquarius

Keep calm and all will be well. You're feeling slightly fraught because there are so many demands on your time, and it won't help if you're trying to juggle some last-minute chores with some fun-filled social events. Get others to lend you a hand, or tell yourself that perfection is not an option right now and that you'll have to scale down your preparations accordingly.
