Appropriate Thought

A few minutes ago, out of the blue and unplanned, I came across this photo portrait of Amelia Earhart. I thought, oh this is cool, I want to post this next. But I thought, I should wait and use it when some particular date is appropriate. Then I thought (I'm always thinking) no, I want to post it next. I scanned it and just now before uploading I thought (there I go again thinking), I thought I'll just quick check any appropriate dates today. TA-DAA, this is her birthday, today, right now. She was born July 24, 1897. How much more appropriate could it get? I love synchronicity.

  1. Great picture. Gosh, what look! She must have been a hell of a woman.

  2. I'll say. Adventure was her middle name (Actually Mary, but you know what I mean). It's a fascinating read about her on Wikipedia.

    I still am amazed that I chose to post her picture on her birthday without knowing it.
