My cellphone picture of the dog & pony show sans pony yesterday was so bad I was not going to say anything about it. Since it hit tonight's news, I'll let the local ABC affliate tell the story. I was sitting in the chair behind where the Ecstasy was hidden and am just out of the picture in the video. Did K9 presentation at courthouse influence jurors? | abc13.com

May 3, 1945

.......By 2200 the men had been to GQ twice. All indications point that this could be a night of harassment. Failing to penetrate the screen in early attacks, a number of enemy were downed some miles out. Today the Japanese concentrated on picket station 10, bearing 260T, and some 72 miles from Bolo. All ships at this station became victims of a vicious attack. Aaron Ward (DM 34) was hit; Little (DD 803) was blasted by 24 planes and sunk by 1855. LSM(R) 195 was hit at 1910 and abandoned. LCS 25 was damaged while trying to help out. At station 9, bearing 245T and 52 miles from Bolo, Macomb was hit. Casualties for all were 90 dead and 158 wounded.

From article "Wreck of USS Little (DD 803)"

Emerging from her first duty on the picket line unscathed, USS Little and her crew were given a brief reprieve at Kerama Retto to rearm and reprovision before they were back out on picket duty, this time at station #10 to the West of Kerama Retto alongside the USS Aaron Ward (APD-34) and four smaller fire support ships. After nine days of repeated air attack the Little and her crew were quick to take their stations when general quarters alarms sounded in the evening of May 3rd, 1945 as radar operators aboard the Aaron Ward began reporting up to 24 enemy aircraft inbound. Sending up a pall of anti-aircraft fire at 1815hrs, the Little's crew drove off several attempts by Kamikaze pilots to hit their ship, however several coordinated attacks were able to overwhelm her gunners and the first Kamikaze to strike the Little in the action did so at 1843hrs, slamming into the Destroyer's Port side between the after fire room and the forward engine room. A second plane following the first was successfully shot down but a third coming from the same angle managed to weave through the AA fire and hit the ship in the exact same spot as a fourth streaked down from the cloud cover and slammed into the Little's aft torpedo mount at 1845. Reeling from three Kamikaze impacts in two minutes, gunners and crew aboard the Little were unable to stop a fourth Kamikaze from swooping in and slamming into the ship at her #2 funnel on the Port side, causing further damage and casualties among the ships already dazed crew.

Severely damaged, aflame and slowing to a halt, the Little and her crew began their fight for survival. With three of her four midship machinery spaces blown out and compromised, the Little began to settle amidships as all power onboard cut out, robbing Little's gunners of their ability to fight off their attackers. With fires in her aft torpedo mount threatening to detonate the torpedo warheads at any moment, the ship dead in the water and without power to defend herself, the Little's Captain passed the order to abandon ship shortly before the accumulating stress of battle damage and inrushing water snapped the Destroyer's keel and the ship began to break up on the surface. With her surviving crew scrambling over the side, the Little snapped in half and quickly sank, suffering a large order detonation as she went down which further injured and killed many of the men in the water. Survivors, including the ships dog, were pulled from the water shortly after the Little went down, however 30 men were listed as lost with the ship as a result of the Kamikaze attack on May 3rd, 1945.

I utilize a Crave Case of White Castles to throw off sniffer canines.

Just pretend this is hwitty.
 
I generally don't believe in new age hippy miracle cures but...
A few years ago a friend of ours gave us a thing called a "Magic Massage Ultra."

We haven't used it until now.
When my wife was in therapy for her knee they used a similar device as part of her therapy.
Her knee still gives her problems occasionally and we decided to try it out.
I checked it out by sticking the electrodes on my right forearm. Because of my neuropathy it's always sore. After a few minutes of zapping, it really seems to have helped.
I stuck the electrodes on my wife's knee and she says it stopped hurting.
We may just havta use this thing more often.

Looks like a version of a Tens unit. Chiropractors use them a lot. I have a small battery operated one I use on my sore back.
 
I had a bad experience with one of those units. I went to a chiropractor years ago after a bad bike wreck, and he put one of those puppies on my back. I believe that he failed to secure the electrodes properly, & after a while it started burning me pretty bad. He came back in the room & I could see his eyes get big, then he took it off me. I never went back...
