Stuff I didnt know Lindbergh Edition

#1 Post by themanintheseersuckersuit » Sun Jun 11, 2017 8:20 am

It seems I am the last person to hear that beginning in 1958, Charles A Lindbergh fathered 7 children with 3 European women. And now we know why he was obsessed with intercontinental air travel
Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

All of whom are related to Bob Juch.

Ironically, I know less about my Juch ancestors than any other branch of my family. If I'm closely related to Brigitte and Marietta Hesshaimer I don't know it. His secretary, Valeska's last name hasn't been revealed.

When I was in Maui and saw the Charles Lindbergh gravesite, I remember someone in the tour group wondered where his wife was buried (turns out she was cremated and the ashes scattered); I figured she had been buried elsewhere because they had a rather tenuous relationship in later years.

I just re-read about Anne Morrow Lindbergh, and she wasn't exactly true to her vows either (no "outside" children, though.)
