I'm slipping.
I used to have more in my head. Gotten lazy since internet searches were invented.
Like, I, and seemingly everyone, knew how many miles wide the United States was. Thirty years ago. 2,000? 3,000? Lemme check. 2,680 mile. Huh. I thought I remembered a rounder number.
I used to know the circumference of the earth. 11,000? Nope, that's just halfway. Ish.

I love that he named his P-51 "Old Crow", after his favorite whiskey.
Rest in peace and rise in Glory, General.
