It was frequently used, as you see, in older documents. Sometimes, if there were many entries, there would be the original word, then two or three entries of "do." and then after that the ditto marks we are more familiar with today. Or, a mix of the word "ditto" and "do." I think I first encountered it in 4th grade and just assumed that it was something everyone over the age of about 40 knows.

Trucks carrying P-47 fighter aircraft through the streets of Liverpool, 1943 (one of the comments pointed out that this model of P-47 didn't come out until later, so 1944 or 1945). The eight-mile route from Speke to the docks was challenging. The path, narrowly cleared by removing trees and relocating light poles, couldn't accommodate the wingspan of a P-47 Thunderbolt. That's why the aircraft were loaded sideways.

In the context given did you really not know? Ir are you just jerking my chain?

Be sure to go to YouTube and read the full description.

OK, it wasn't a dazzling white like freshly bleached sheets but, in general, people looking at unbleached cotton canvas and asked the color will say "White." Yeah, it's maybe an off-white, "Barely, almost-tan White" or something. (Pointing at bolt of fabric) What color is that? Uh...it's white. The organizers of that event should be subjected to a bit of Socratic thinking" "Of what were the covers of wagons made?" "Um....canvas, I guess." "Of what is canvas made?" "Um.....I think it's usually cotton." "And, in general, what color is cotton grown in the United States?" "White. Isn't all cotton white?" "Actually, no. Some types, usually not for large commercial production, are light green, or a brownish red. But the huge bulk of it is, indeed, white. So maybe you should drop your racism and allow these wagons to be shown as the ones that made the trek really were, rather than your revisionist pipe dream."

Usually the "Take With Food" is to avoid irritating the stomach. From the Walgreens "ask a pharmacist": Myself, I usually don't take with food, even though all say to do it. No issues with stomach upset. In fact, I had been having dizziness and very low BP when I took my BP meds too close to a meal. The post-prandial low BP along with the initial lowering of BP by the meds lowered it too much. So I make sure I don't eat within half an hour or so of taking them. I don't care what time I take them, just so there's about 8 hours between them.

I hope this will open for our friends Down Under. The ANZAC Book

I wish I could afford to have it built.

Some bakeries, usually associated with chain supermarkets, will censor, "Congratulations (name) Summa Cum Laude!" Or will just refuse the order. Just as, in the Instagram thread where I found someone asked "What does do. mean?" Another, for an orange pudding receipt from the 1600s, the author made the comment that oranges were pretty much unknown in Europe until the Moors brought them to Spain. In the comments someone asked "What are moors?" I posted that they should look up the Umayyad Caliphate. I did manage to refrain from mentioning the heraldic "moor" or "blackamoor," but OH! it was SO tempting!

A half gallon isn't outrageous for an afternoon of fishing or an evening of jovial camaraderie.

Large walk in shower with a bench or two, hand held and fixed shower heads, including horizontal jets all fed by inch and a half supply lines for good water pressure. A 2 person soaking/whirlpool tub. Two toilets, each with a privacy wall. The whole thing with a tile floor and central drain for easy cleaning...especially useful if you get the flu or have other issues that necessitate a rush to the facilities.

"One person".....

AMEN !!!! This photo, taken on June 24, 1944, during the deadly Battle of Saipan (Mariana Islands), shows U.S. Navy Chaplain O. David Herrmann (Omaha, Nebraska) using a destroyed Japanese tank as an altar, and holding a service for the dead.

Probably not well: "The tractor-cycle is a motorcycle equipped with a belt instead of the conventional wheels. Even though it looks kind of unstable standing on its belt, the "tractor-cycle" is said to have superior climbing and crossing capabilities compared to a normal motorcycle. It was invented in 1938 by J. Lehaitre in Paris, France. Here's the original text describing this unusual machine from Modern Mechanix, issue: February, 1938 : "Belt Drive Replaces Wheels On Novel Motorcycle DEVELOPED primarily for operation over rough ground, a new type of motorcycle invented by J. Lehaitre, of Paris, France, features a tractor-type drive belt as its means of locomotion in place of conventional wheels. Named the “tractor-cycle” by the inventor, the novel vehicle is said to be superior to an ordinary motorcycle in its ability to climb steep and rough grades, although its speed on level ground is limited to about 25 m.p.h. Steering is accomplished by handlebars which control a sideways motion of the drive belt. The tractor-cycle could easily be adapted for military use, as depicted on the cover of this issue by a Modern Mechanix artist. Fitted with a machine gun, the cycle could be used by dispatch riders or entire military units to travel over shell-torn terrain. " [Source: Modern Machanix]

That's a pretty good movie

Constable/Deputy Sheriff Rasmus L. Rasmussen End of Watch April 20, 1927 Petaluma Township Constable Rasmus L. Rasmussen was shot and killed on April 20, 1927. Constable Rasmussen, like Constable Crigler mentioned earlier, was also a deputy sheriff. He was killed by a rifle shot to the head, inflicted by 70-year-old, John Failla. Early that morning, Failla had taken his small dog for a customary morning walk. During the walk, his dog jumped up on Joe Mancebo, the owner of the Redwood Highway service station on Main Street in Petaluma. Failla and Mancebo argued about the dog and then went their separate ways. Failla was so upset that he went downtown and bought a rifle and two boxes of cartridges. He then went back to the service station and began shooting at Mr. Mancebo. His shots missed. Mike Theos, a cook at a nearby diner, attempted to take the rifle away from Failla, but was shot and killed by Failla. Failla then retreated to his house on Cherry Street and barricaded himself inside. Constable Rasmussen, Sheriff Douglas Bills and several deputies, as well as Petaluma Police Chief Mike Flohr and his men surrounded the house. The local National Guard Machine Gun Detail even got involved, firing bursts of machine gun rounds at the house. At one point, an airplane was sent to San Francisco to pick up a hand grenade and four tear gas bombs from the San Francisco Police Department. During the standoff, Constable Rasmussen was shot in the head by John Failla. Percy Fuller, a member of the posse who had been standing next to Constable Rasmussen when he was killed, returned fire with his rifle and shot Failla in the stomach. Failla died where he fell. Constable Rasmussen is buried in the Berkeley Cemetery.
