At random: In 1921, a United States submarine, the R-14, having run out of fuel at sea while looking for the missing tug USS Conestoga, rigged sails from blankets and hammocks sewn together. Bunk frames were used for yardarms and booms. The torpedo loading king post for a fore mast, the torpedo loading boom for a mizzen mast and the telescoping radio mast, for the main mast. The R-14 sailed 100 miles in five days to the port of Hilo, T.H. at a speed of two knots. It has been reported in March 2016 that the Conestoga has been located 3 miles off Southeast Farallon Island, probably sinking with-in a day of leaving port. All hands lost.

I visit someone in a nursing home and they like these old game shows.

I came across this one.

Polly Bergen died recently and I remember growing up and seeing how pretty she was.  I felt sorry for her when in her later years she played the mistress of Tony Soprano's dead father in the HBO series.  She was in her 80's then and Soprano aficionados treated her not very kindly.  

I saw that with Kim Novak also.  She used Botox before she reappeared for a Hollywood function and she's made fun of.  She was one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen.
