Black and white photo of a white man in white sailor's cap lying down on his stomach on a lawn, propped up on his elbows and looking down at three tabby and white kittens sheltered in his arms. A fourth kitten that is a black or grey tuxedo stands on his left shoulder.

“A sailor attached to utility squadron VJ-4 plays with kittens that were discovered in an equipment room at U.S. Naval Air Station Squantum in Massachusetts, 1942.” Original source is the National Archives but I found it in the book Cats in the Navy. www.usni.org/press/books/...

LA's wildfires sparked by rare collision of climate factors Extremely dry conditions and an hurricane force winds are overlapping unusually late in the year.

Los Angeles received just 0.16 inches of rain since May 2024, the second-driest period on record.

What planet are they living on?

Thank you, Mr. President
