    Today, we meet the inventor of racquetball, consider several cocktails, remember a World War II strategic operation, and land on the moon. We conclude by remembering why wax is not a good binding material for feathers! IMAGINE That! Note: Those interested in learning more about Operation Torch and 1942 might wish to check out the following book: November 1942: An Intimate History of the Turning Point of World War II, by Swedish historian Peter Englund.
