While out running errands with my family yesterday we stopped in to visit my 101 year old grandmother. Her mind obviously isn't what it once was but even she remembered December 7th.

Her brother was killed in WWII and her husband, my grandfather, was wounded on Guadalcanal and walked with a limp for the remainder of his life. So she has no great love for the Japanese. It was just funny yesterday in this "politically correct" world we live in to hear my grandmother still referring to them as those goddamn dirty Japs.
