My brain keeps certain anniversaries whether I intend to or not.

Today is one of the happy ones. Dad came back from Vietnam 35 years ago today. I greeted him at the airport with the words "We just heard on the radio, Da Nang fell."

By the end of April, there were emergency evacuations and people hanging from helicopters to get out. His secretary, Lonnie, was one of the few adults killed when the orphan plane was destroyed. It was a rough several months for him, for all of us.

But the important thing is, he made it home.

For once this isn't about Virginia.

[livejournal.com profile] sparkymonster has a post about an idiot named Amanda Palmer and her remarks about "giving money to the KKK."

I can't even write about this one.
