Three Degrees of Separation
Click #1- The Bugs Bunny cartoon link;
Click #2- Bugs Bunny in Dixie;
Click #3- The film footage of the 1914 reunion of Confederate veterans in Florida, featuring FM Ironmonger, my Mother's-in-law grandfather (and the youngest veteran present). I pasted the link into an email, and this morning I got a tearful phone call from her telling me how happy she was to see her grandfather again.
Strange to think that next year it will be 150 years since the opening shots of the Civil War, and yet we can not only see film of survivors embracing at reunions, for many of us these shadowy images moving across the screen are our grandparents or great-grandparents and in some way they are still alive, still a part of us.
