Random object today is picked because of the unrest present around the country in conjunction with the Floyd trial.
It's over an entrance to my high school, New Utrecht HS in Brooklyn NY. At one time, it's 11,000 pupil student body was thought to be the largest in the world, but probably better known as the home of the "Sweathogs" of TV's Welcome Back Kotter.

Photos from a long time ago and one fairly recent. The first photo is of me at Peace Park. It was a Saturday and I had a weekend pass. I went to Hiroshima to take pictures. A group of students saw me and rushed over. I didn't know what to expect. They wanted to practice their English circa 1967.
The next picture is a child taking a break. She has to be about 54 years old now.
The third picture is our latest little girl when she was about nine weeks old. You've got to smell the flowers along the way. Her name is Sugar Bear.

Today is the Holocaust Remembrance Day in the USA.
One of the places of Nazi horror I'll always remember visiting was Mauthausen. The staff at the camp had numerous ways to torture and kill inmates, including being worked to death in the granite quarry.
The rock quarry in Mauthausen concentration camp was at the base of the "Stairs of Death". Starving prisoners were forced to carry roughly-hewn blocks of stone – often weighing as much as 110 pounds up the 186 stairs.
Sorry, I cannot like this post.
Lunch today.
1965 blackout. NYC Subway riders walking the underground rails.
Some looked cheerful being escorted out.

It was a police vehicle.
This guy came up, looking for a handout.
This old girl had 8 more teeth pulled. Only has the two bottom fangs left, rest is all gums. She still catches mice.

These are print blocks, of what appears to be Hi-Standard Sentinels. They would be used in print/newspaper ads for the guns, adjacent to the copy.
