Feel Good Story Dog Tag of Fallen WW II Soldier is Returned to Family 80 Years After His Death
The dog tag ID belonging to a fallen World War II soldier has been returned to his family 80 years after his death. Joseph L. Gray was one of 31 servicemen who died in April 1945 when their plane, a B-17 Flying Fortress, crashed into a hill on the Isle of Man. In 2010, around 65 years later, the Philadelphia soldier’s dog tags were unearthed by a metal detector and handed over to the Manx Aviation and Military Museum on the UK island. It wasn’t until the great nephew of another soldier who died in the crash—Donald Madar, a friend of the museum—saw the tag this year and said he knew a relative of Gray’s through a Facebook group he runs. Eight decades on, he returned the “prized possession”, taking it back where he said it belongs—to the technical sergeant’s great niece Bridgette Daily. “It was a wonderful moment handing the tag over,” Donald told SWNS news agency.Nice story. Read the whole thing.

At the same event, Usha looked beautiful in a black crepe asymmetrical Eva gown by Shoshanna.
At the Whitehouse picnic this week, Melania looked chic in a summery ensemble with vibrant florals. The First Lady paired a white blouse with Dolce & Gabbana peony print cotton jacquard pants. She wore Manolo Blahnik BB 115 Orchid pink suede pumps that completed the look perfectly, and our President wore a matching tie. Could that be any cuter?
Standing beside President Donald Trump during the 250th anniversary of the Army, Melania’s outfit was master class in aligning with the patriotic theme of the parade. It was a fantastic blend of elegance with a military inspired edge. Melania wore a custom Adam Lippes white with blue pinstripe suit. It featured a structured blazer with shoulder pads done right and pencil skirt.
In a world that feels chaotic, I appreciate being able to bring you a moment of frivolity. Back to Doof! ------ Thanks Piper - I'll take it from here!

We didn't drive by, point and laugh, though it was a tempting thought. Let them have their protest, which was at least peaceful, according to the "news."
Looked closely at the photo, mostly white, mostly older though there were some 20-early 30-ish looking people, maybe a couple of hispanic women in the photo. The signs were handmade and mostly stupid.
Okay, they were all stupid.

At dialysis I was remarking how merely looking at Melania's shoes made my whole body hurt. One of the nurses said that her legs probably hurt if she wore flats. According to the nurse, the tendons and muscles of a high heel wearer's legs shortened over time.

I had to turn away for a few seconds after he told me this story. For over 19 years, I've raised him on Sunday steak, explaining the importance of honoring the supreme sacrifice of these great beasts by preparing them for maximum enjoyment, and respect the fine line between raw/bloody and incineration. Determine the cut, note the fat distribution, gauge the thickness, and respect the science. Once you have done this enough times, you will develop instincts for every situation and success will always be assured.

I like this dress on her, and her hair. Her shoe game needs work, as does her makeup. I think she is trying to find her footing as she is a bit chaotic in her style. I can’t imagine the intimidating feeling of being next to Melania all the time when you haven’t been very fashion forward, though. I do think Melania has helped and we can pinpoint when. This dress, the floral sundress I featured recently. The royal off the shoulder dress she wore to the congressional spouses luncheon really was flattering. She wore a pattern dress to something this week, I forget what, that I didn’t feature because it was pretty bad.

‘Baby Nezza’ said she decided to sing in Spanish because of the ICE raids.

Today, our wonderful daughter and her excellent husband came by. She brought flowers from her garden, and a very nice Father's Day card. MiladyJo had bought a new office chair to replace this one I've been complaining about, and daughter and son-in-law put it together. They also mowed our small fenced back yard, which had become such a jungle Daisy Dog wouldn't even go out there. Among other help. They brought their two dogs, and stayed a while, and it was nice.
Our Son had planned to come by for dinner, but he'd had a long week of long shifts, so we'll see him tomorrow.
Our kids love and respect MiladyJo, have been enormous help with errands and chores and even meals. They like each other and it feels like a real family. I can't take credit for how they turned out, but I'm proud of them. They made it a great Father's Day.

The man was a genius. Every dress of his was a sepulchral work of art meant to be pleasing to a woman's form and figure. Unlike many other designers who design not for women but their boyfriends. That's why so many models have slender hips and boys asses, because the designers prefer their models to be shaped like their boy toys...

My mother was of the generation that didn't leave the house without a girdle, makeup and high heels. She paid the price after 60. Both feet, three different surgeries.
My wife never wears heels, and when she worked in NYC, she was a contrarian. Other girls would carry their heels to work. She carried the tennis shoes she worked in and wore the heels on the subway. Gropers got a heel on the instep.

Malls are the HOAs of business lease arrangments.
When I worked at B&N, they were letting most of the mall store leases lapse (B.Dalton/Doubleday). Those stores could not be adapted to the concept they wanted, like cafes. But one B. Dalton mall store in Miami, I believe it was, was a moneymaker. It sat on a major customer vein. That thing had sales like a B&N store with a cafe.

Huma only married the very fey Soros spawn for money and access. I suspect she's asexual so Alex can continue buggering and getting buggered by men.
JJ Spaun won the US Open today at the very tough Oakmont CC in Pittsburgh. His first major. He was the only player under par, -1.
YoutubeTV didn't record the Lemans 24 so I will have to wait till it's uploaded on regular Youtube. I'm a bit annoyed with that. Not sure if YTTV or MotortrendTV screwed up but results the same. Race didn't record. First World Problems! (sad violin)

Iran's economy and infrastructure have been awful and declining for a long time. (hard to invest when all national wealth must go to stupid rockets and nuke weapon programs) Trucker's strike recently.
Israel has already hit fuel storage depots, and a sort of wake-up strike on a gas field. Family reports to emigres paint a very, very bleak picture on fuel, logistics, and things like banking. More infrastructure hits could be interesting.

I never wanted to become someone like him
So secure, content to live each day just like the last
I was sure I knew that this was not for me
And I wanted so much more
Far beyond what I could see
So I swore that I'd never be someone like him
So many years have passed
Since I proclaimed my independence
My mission, my aim, and my vision
So secure, content to live each day like it's my last
It's wonderful to know that I could be
Something more than what I dreamed
Far beyond what I could see
Still I swear that I'm missing out this time

Yeah, no. Fuck Iran. They've been at war with us (and Israel) for over 40 years, and we still never really got any payback for our Marines in Beirut.
Also, unlike Russians, who're justifiably paranoid and want to keep invaders out, the current regime in Iran wants nukes so that they can hand them off to proxy groups and pretend they're not accountable when our (or Israel's, or any number of Arabs') cities get vaporized.

As the sun rises this morning over the Iranian capital of Tehran, the mass exodus of residents from the city continues, with miles-long traffic jams on all major highways and roads exiting Tehran.
Throughout the upcoming week, Israel will likely attempt to push more residents to flee the city, by striking power facilities and other infrastructure, with hopes that this will spark civil unrest further destabilizing and weakening the Iranian Regime

While scouring the InterWebs for news of Ukraine, I've found that being pro-Russian and anti-Israel is a pretty common combination. The same commenters who chortle over blown up Ukrainians were frothing at the mouth over casualties among the Gazans.
I'm sure if the Israelis attacked Hell, they would support the Devil.

I must have won the father lottery.
My father was my best friend while growing up. He didn't do literally a thousand things with me and my brother to be a good father ... he did it because he was just a big kid himself and happy to have two slightly smaller kids always at the beck and call to go do fun stuff.

This will probably cause you to excommunicate me, but otherv than her gorgeous Catherine Walker coat dresses and most of her Alexander McQueen dresses, I am not overly impressed with her style sense.
She wears things well, and I think she wears hats better than anyone I've ever seen, but I don't find her overly chic.Always appropriate, always gorgeous, of course.
I also find her constant color coordinating of the family outfits very Basic. Like people who coordinate family Christmas card photos.

Two U.S. Air Force C-17s landed at the Anniston Army Depot in Alabama earlier tonight, which operates the Anniston Defense Munitions Center (ADMC).
The C-17s likely picked up air-defense missiles, possibly Patriot or THAAD, before now preparing to cross the Atlantic towards Europe.

Spent his final Fathers' Day with his friends, on a sight-seeing train ride through the mountains. He often was out of town for holidays after Mom died.
Hubby & I saw him the night before he passed. He was in a good mood, sharp as ever, just a bit fatigued due to cancer. Said he had so enjoyed the train trip & the scenery was out-of-this-world gorgeous. (No pictures, as he'd dropped his cellphone and broken it that weekend.)
Shocked that he was incoherent the very next day and was gone that evening.
Love you, Daddy. Miss you.

The Living Years by Mike and the Mechanics. Mike Rutherford's father was a high-ranking Royal Navy officer, but him and Mike got along fine. The song was written by one of the other guys in the band who had a similar situation but a very poor relationship with his Dad. It is a beautifully written and sung song. One of my favorites.

Planted in the Shadow of U.S. Defense
When BYD chose to build its U.S. factory, it didn’t set up shop just anywhere.
It chose Lancaster, California—a quiet desert city just north of Los Angeles. But more importantly, just minutes from:
•Northrop Grumman – builder of America’s stealth bombers and military satellites
•Lockheed Martin’s Skunk Works – birthplace of the F-117, U-2, SR-71, and F-22
•Palmdale Air Base – a hub for drone testing and next-generation aerospace
•NASA Armstrong Research Center – linked to military and space programs
A CCP-aligned factory operating within miles of America’s most sensitive defense projects.
This was no coincidence. This was a deliberate act of geostrategic positioning

I don't think it's just that. You can look at pictures prior to her even meeting William, and she just had that BB look. Wearing what was trendy for her set. Her jewelry is a perfect example.
She wears The Family Jewels beautifully. None better. But her personal jewelry is trendy and bland, those endless Kiki somebody earrings, for instance. Perfume also, especiallyround about the time of the wedding; Jo Malone and Illume (?). Very typical of what a Sloane Ranger would choose.
She's truly a BB. In the loveliest way, but a very stereotypical BB White Girl. And she did Charlotte wrong at TtC. She's at a hard age, no longer a little girl, but still too young to wear anything too grown. But she looked grumpy, pearl and diamond broach or not.
OR, but I was sooo hoping Sophie would get a jewelry upgrade.

My mother shares your Mom’s love for chocolate chip ice cream. Haagen Dazs Vanilla Chocolate Chip is delightful. I believe it is only available in the pint size. Not cheap, but Publix here in Florida has it on BOGO relatively frequently. God bless you caring for your mom. I’m heading down the same path, although I have not yet completely admitted it to myself.

Get to a lawyer now, an estate planning lawyer, and get her assets protected. I mean it, NOW. If she ends up in a nursing home and runs out of money, they are entitled to everything. Can't take the house while a spouse or minor child ( and grandkids dont countbunless she has custody) is living in it, but they will put a lien on the property.
