Gloom, despair, and agony on me”
RIP Mr Yamaguchi.

That’s pretty parallel to what I was thinking.

Yamaguchi was in Hiroshima for a business trip when the Enola Gay dropped an atomic bomb on the city; two days later he returned home to Nagasaki where the second atomic bomb dropped on Aug. 9. Did he stop traveling after that? ;-)

Its seems that God already has blessed him despite throwing a couple of rough days his way in the past.

It’s from Hee-Haw, a show from the 70s. It was sort of a funny song written by Buck Owens. I’m dating myself! lol.

LOL, that is about the last guess I would have made. I thought it was from this song, which include the lyrics "if it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have no luck at all."

Fuchida, the swashbuckling aviator who led the attack on Pearl Harbor, personally saw the detonation of the atomic bomb at either Hiroshima or Nagasaki, from a transport plane he was flying in at the time.
He survived the war and became a Christian missionary.

Has a bit of the “Appointment in Samarra” angle to it.
