Good 58º with 58% humidity clear sunny morning.
Hit 100º yesterday. UGH.
Remember when I made the
rice/farro/veggie/chicken dish and then said "breakfast"? Well, here was
yesterday's breakfast...
It was great and I felt as if I was eating things
so good for me!
Yesterday as I sat at my desk the Bruise decided
he needed attention so he jumps up on my desk! Then he proceeds to play with the
computer mouse! But mom, it's a MOUSE!
And then a nap on top of the mouse!
This from a friend, Pat Reardon (LASD ret) and I
think it originally came to Pat from George B .. it's a you tube video of a
broadcast on Muslim TV. These guys know what is happening with OVamit! They know
more than the liberalists in this country!!!
Yesterday was our former Sheriff Sherman Block's
birthday. His daughter Barbara posted this on FaceBook:
In 1924 many things happened that became part of
history. Calvin Coolidge won the presidential election, Goldwyn & Mayer film
studios merged, The Ten Commandments movie was released and on July 19th Sherman
Block was born. Dad, tomorrow is your birthday and had you lived you would be
91. There isn't a day that you are not in my thoughts. You accomplished so much
in your 74 years; you had a genius IQ, graduated every level of education with
honors (receiving an honorary doctorate from Pepperdine), served your country
during WWII, remained by my side my entire life in good times and bad, and
became one of the greatest and most respected law enforcement professionals in
this country and the world would ever know. You came to ingratiate yourself to
so many people in all walks of life. Most importantly you earned the honor of
being the best father I could ever have. God bless you dad. I hope you are
resting in peace.
Barbara also posted these photos:

July 20th
National Lollipop Day
George Smith, owner of Bradley Smith Company, invented and patented the
Lollipop in 1908. Legend has it, that George named the Lollipop after his
favorite racehorse " Lolly Pop".
The Racine Confectioner's Machinery Company claims to have created National
Lollipop Day.
There is a little controversy as to who first created the automated
Lollipop machine. The Racine Confectioner's Machinery Company claims to be the
first to create a machine to automatically make Lollipops. Their machine made 40
lollipops at a time. Sam Born of California also claims to have created the
first automated lollipop machine, in 1916. It was called the "Born Sucker
Machine".
There is no congressional record, nor presidential proclamation, which is
required to make this a "national"
day.
