    Default A U.S/U.K. Nautical Father's Day

    It is Father's Day here in the U.S. My daughter (who is a graduate student in the UK) and I celebrated the holiday by doing a Zoom screen share viewing of one of our favorite films; "Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World." When she was still at home she would take me for Father's Day to the Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome to see the WWI dogfight airshow. I really enjoyed seeing the film once again, but I most enjoyed seeing my daughter for a prolonged time....

    What a nice way to spend your day Bill.
    I must watch my copy of Master and Commander to celebrate the Summer Solstice tomorrow, with a G&t of course!

    The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.
