I always feel better after a full night’s sleep. Plus, Christmas toast! Woo hoo!
What did you find under your tree?
Merry Christmas

Glad you had a good nights sleep, and were able to taste the toast. Sometimes simple things are the best.
Me?
I got a really good-looking sweater (much needed), and a very nice book on demolished and never-built Philly architecture.
I hope that everyone here is having a good holiday, even the occasional trolls.
Iz, if you want to read something interesting: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philadelphia_general_strike_(1910). I’m fascinated by the fact the strikers moved the granite blocks that were being used to build a school as a barricade. Lots of the most active strikers were in Port Richmond, near me.
Thanks for this very interesting link. I have a 96-page history of transportation in Philly between 1902 and 1940, written by a transportation engineer in 1976, that doesn’t make the slightest mention of the strikes. I guess the 1% has never lacked for enablers.
