Yes, Google, the big, mean corporation that recognizes Michael Jackson and Sesame Street also puts effort into honoring our nation's veterans.
Done in the way of Norman Rockwell, today's Google doodle is tender and sweet. Even before fully reading our own veterans stories in today's Southeast Missourian - one about the Stars and Stripes Museum and another about a decorated veteran living in Millersville - I heard about and looked up this story about four muggers in Milwaukee who took a man's wallet, keys, cash, cell phone and a power bar wrapper, only to return the man's things upon finding his military ID in his wallet. Not as heartwarming as a Norman Rockwell, but still appreciative I guess. Happy Veterans Day to all of you who have helped us out. |
Chris Harris manages the feature sections in the Southeast Missourian. Those colorful, fun pages toward the end of the A section? That's her and her team. She works on Health, Home and Garden, SE Live, neXt, Religion, the Sunday Good Times section and the daily comics pages. She deals with everything from the flu and fitness topics to house projects and kitchen tips to the latest plays and art exhibits in town. You know: conversation topics. She uses this space to talk about what's coming up, what you're interested in and what she found yesterday. You can sum it and her up in one word: Random.
