She used to take me places and would tell me to talk to waiters, sales associates, etc. and would expect me to tell her what colors their eyes were when I got back to her. Small thing that has a big effect because you have to REALLY look them in he eyes but smile and be charming so it isn’t weird or uncomfortable. Queen of seduction back in her day. You go grams.

HISTORY MEME : 1 War - World War II
World War II (WWII or WW2), also known as the Second World War, was a global war that lasted from 1939 to 1945. It involved the vast majority of the world’s nations—including all of the great powers—eventually forming two opposing military alliances: the Allies and the Axis.The Axis powers were a group of countries led by Nazi Germany, the Kingdom of Italy (until its defeat) and the Empire of Japan. They were considered the aggressors of the conflict. The Allies, led by the United Kingdom, its Commonwealth , and France (until its defeat), were joined in the European theater by the Soviet Union in June 1941 and by the United States in December 1941. In the Asia-Pacific theater, the Allies were led by the Republic of China, following the 1937 invasion of China by Japan, and the United States and the British Commonwealth, following the 1941–42 Japanese attacks.
