Lawnmower ~ Chaka ~ BBQ ~ Thumb Drive ~ Napalm Girl ~ Fast Change In Your Day ~ Egg Day


   

Good 51º semi-cloudy morning.




Yesterday Dave called, he had read my blog about the sprayer so told me to come over and he'd take a look at it. He fixed it!!!! YEAH! It was the switch on the lawnmower. So, Dave put in a new one he had laying around!! LOL. Dave has everything! But........... with the 80% rain chance, I'm not going to spray weeds/grass today. Dang.

and... PJ loaned me a book to read... Cleo by Helen Brown...
Sounds like a sweet and heartwarming story.


I have been invited to a barbecue dinner today at Bill and Jeannie's. YEAH.... someone is cooking for ME! Yes, Chaka, I'm bringing you Milk Bones! Silly dog.






 Also, going to show them how to save pictures from their computer to a thumb drive. 

I have been consolidating my documents and pictures onto external hard drives.... it holds hundreds of gigabytes. The thumb drive I copied had over 700 pictures on it, so I think it will work for them for now.


Historically this date...
1943 – In Los Angeles, California, white U.S. Navy sailors and Marines clash with Latino youths in the Zoot Suit Riots.

1979 – A blowout at the Ixtoc I oil well in the southern Gulf of Mexico causes at least 3,000,000 barrels (480,000 m3) of oil to be spilled into the waters, the second-worst accidental oil spill ever recorded.

1980 – The 1980 Grand Island tornado outbreak. Seven tornadoes hit Grand Island, Nebraska takes five lives, 357 single-family homes, 33 mobile homes, 85 apartments, 49 businesses and $300 million in damages all told, according to National Weather Service and American Red Cross statistics on the deadly storm.


And births this date include...
1924 – Jimmy Rogers, American blues guitarist (d. 1997)

1925Tony Curtis, American actor (d. 2010)


Here is a story I saw on AOL that is fascinating... a miracle story of survival....

....................and if you want your socks knocked off (thanks Mike Chippola!) "how fast your day can change" !!!

Whatever you do, don't watch this while drinking coffee, or for that matter, any beverage!


All I know. Nuff said. Happy Sunday. Ciao.
