    34 years ago today, on November 10, 1975, the SS Edmund Fitzgerald - aka "Mighty Fritz," - foundered and sank during a storm on Lake Superior.

    Launched on June 8, 1958, the Edmund Fitzgerald was the largest ship on the Great Lakes for the next 13 years (hence its nickname). The ship went down with all hands - 29 crew - just 17 miles from the entrance to Whitefish Bay. The Edmund Fitzgerald had a capacity of 24,100 tons and was 729 feet long.

    No communication was received from the ship. It's assumed that a rogue wave overcame her in that early November gale.

    The maples leaves are gone, been bagged up and taken away last week, but now the yard is covered in oak leaves - it's like they waited to take their "turn!"

    In Ohio women are forbidden from wearing patent leather shoes, lest men see reflections of their underwear

    Tomatoes and pumpkins are fruits - not vegetables.
