Most people don't know that back in 1912,
Hellmann's mayonnaise was manufactured
in England.

In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars
of the condiment scheduled for delivery in
Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next
port of call for the great ship after its stop in
New York.

This would have been the largest single
shipment of mayonnaise ever delivered
to Mexico. But as we know, the great ship
did not make it to New York. The ship hit an
iceberg and sank, and the cargo was forever
lost.

The people of Mexico, who were crazy about mayonnaise, and were eagerly awaiting its
delivery, were disconsolate at the loss.
Their anguish was so great that they
declared a National Day of Mourning, which
they still observe to this day.

The National Day of Mourning occurs each
year on May 5th and is known, of course,
as Sinko de Mayo.

And just think.. it was just yesterday, we were saying,"May the 4th, be with you".

*"We normally wouldn't use a 383 for this build, parts and labor for a 440 cost the same."

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)
