9/23/2007 - Ken Burns new documentary: The War

<p>Shogun! I’m having the hardest time watching it. Hubby has threatened to disconnect the Dish if I don’t stop with the blubbering. My Grandmother called me crying after watching just one episode. I begged her not to watch any more. Too many memories for her & things she was never aware of. It almost feels like watching a train wreck & I’m rubber-necking right into it. I’d never heard of Market Garden. What a complete disaster it was… I think the most amazing thing (& I can’t seem to comprehend one tenth of it) is what the human spirit can endure. Talk about feeling small… :frowning: I will continue to watch but think I better not post about it anymore for fear of making a complete mushy gooshy idiot of myself. :rolleyes:</p>
