#OTD 4 June. It's a bit of a strange day. My database has many births, deaths and marriages today. One of my grandchildren was born on this day in 2007. My rascally maternal grandfather (biological) whom I did not like, died on this day in 1997. My mother's second cousin was born on this day in 1917.

Another birth is that of Cloudy Marie Lucas in Oklahoma in 1902. Her name, transcribed by a cousin from a family Bible, amuses me. Was it supposed to be Claudia/Claudy? She died in childbirth in 1938, leaving a husband, but no children. She was a first cousin to my maternal grandfather (adoptive).

To celebrate Total Recall turning 36 years old recently, look forward to some follow-up posts.

Total Recall offers a glimpse in the future where ESPN, Hilton Hotels & Resorts, Pepsi, Philips, Coca-Cola, and Fujifilm seem to be just some of the larger corporations which advertise very prominently.
