Odds And Endz

6/6/2012 is the 68th anniversary of  "Operation Overlord". That was the code name for the invasion of western Europe by allied forces. "D- Day". We, the descendents of WW ll veterans can only imagine the insanity & the hell these heroic military personnel withstood. Thank you for your sacrifices.

I saw my first firefly this evening at approximately 10:05 PM, CDT. This is the earliest that I have seen one. Couple that with the growth of the garden, it's going to be a hot, warm Summer.

Scott Walker, Republican Governor survived the recall election in Wisconsin. He beat back the challenge of Democrat Tom Barrett. Walker took in over 60 million bucks from out state interests. (Koch brothers etc.) Barrett won the nomination over the union endorsed candidate. Remember, the unions started the recall process & the establishment Dems., usurped the process & put their same old, same old, good old boy up as opposition. The Dems. promptly changed the tone of the campaign from workers rights to the usual, political bullshit.
Again this proves that the Republicans are the party of the corrupt, while the Democrats are the party of the incompetent. Not to worry. It is only a matter of weeks before a Grand Jury indicts Walker for " campaign finance malfeasance, embezzlement of veterans funds, bid-rigging, and even child enticement during the period when Walker served as Milwaukee County Executive, but was running for governor." Walker may have traded the pink slip for an orange jumpsuit.

There is a reason why we have two ears and one mouth.
Think about it.

How many times do I have to hear someones version of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" before I start to regurgitate?

Why are John Sandford's, "Virgil Flowers" novels some of the best thrillers out there ?

What is the appropriate waiting period after a spouse has
passed away, before you actively try to get laid? It's been 6+ months, & even the crack of dawn isn't safe from my lecherous intentions. Apologies to all concerned.

Thanks for the indulgence, & continue to "Rock On".
