Too many Mods carry the cents in their pockets. It is a shame that personal "feelings" get in the way of right and wrong.
Oh, I do hope all your days today were good. God Bless you all and have a restful night.
My Dad was in the Philippines in WW2. Made it through that and then was killed in an explosion at the Iowa Ordinance Plant in 1952. I have a picture of my Dad guarding prisoners in the Philippines. He was in the Navy.
Awesome picture!Good morning D-League. It's currently 63° and cloudy here in Eastern Kentucky. This afternoon will bring mostly sunny skies and a high of 86°.
Everyone stay safe on this Monday.
Now that's a real shame. Sorry. Must have made growing up tough.
Good morning from ATX. Currently 73°F and clear with periodic clouds. Yesterday's showers cooled us down. 30% rain chance after lunch time. We may touch 90°F today and we'll definitely take it.
USA landed on the moon 52 years ago today. How our world has changed since.
Still early yet. Plan on hiking to nearby grocery store for a few items, namely butter, either this morning during my walk or this afternoon.
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

Good morning all. About 63 and heading up to the low, mid 80s today in the Buckeye State.
Remember this day in history well. Only day during that Summer that I was off from my Summer job because so many people wanted to take the day off that they closed the place so everybody could have the day off. Usually they only did that for Christmas.
Two years ago on this date we went to the Neil Armstrong Museum in Wapakoneta, Ohio for the 50th. He was from there, and I think was born on a farm outside of town. Nice museum. Not very big. And for that day/weekend it was free. Crowd was huge and we had to park about a mile away. Very hot day so I decided to wear a pair of sandals that I hardly ever wear. Big mistake with all that walking. Lot of extra exhibits on the outside for the anniversary and probably 8-10 astronauts there for talks, autographs, etc. Didn't know any of them....but 50 years ago everybody in the country knew the names of the original 13, plus Gemini and Apollo.
Foot ache or no foot ache....gotta get some grass mowed today. Company coming in Thursday, so a lot to do.
Y'all have a good day.

Good morning D-League. Happy moon landing anniversary day. What a day to be an American that was, even a poor rural 13-year old in Kentucky.
Getting muggy already in the east. We’re looking at 93 today. I hope it’s a good day for everyone.

I was in Turkey when we landed on the moon. There was a mini World's Fair in Izmir. The USA exhibit was an outdoor theater showing the moon landing. When we landed on the moon there was a huge deadly flu outbreak in the Turkish mountains. We were blamed for stirring up something that fell to earth in their mountains causing many people to die.
Hah! Those crazy Turks! If only they knew the whole thing was faked and filmed by Stanley Kubrick in the New Mexico desert.
Good morning D-League. It's currently 68° and overcast here in Eastern Kentucky. This afternoon will bring mostly sunny skies and a high of 87°.
Everyone stay safe out there today.

Morning folks. I just watched the Blue Origin launch. Good stuff. An 82 year old and 18 year old and two others in the 60's goes to space.
52 years ago I watched the moon landing on my fancy 13" GE color tv. I thought I was high tech because it was color and cost me a fortune.
I have a bluray copy of the Last Waltz. I watch it several times a year.
I got my yard mowed yesterday to avoid the rain. Not one drop yet. So I am good until next week.

Hello all,
I hope this day is going well for you.
My Darling and I got to hit the trails late yesterday and came home with these:
That's a good three pounds of Blackberry's... we had a good time. Yep I plan to eat some shortly.
Just got back from the VA in DC for my three month blood-letting. (They take a pint.) I always have a good experience in that facility, even if it wasn't. (Appointments all messed up though I was early but the VA staff worked through them well.)
Oh, Have a great rest of your day and keep God on your mind continually. He is worthy. God Bless you all...
Edit: My Darling just brought me one of these: (Some banana, and ice takes these home...)

I use this for my biscuits but...
Sometimes I like my buttermilk straight! It is one of those days!
For the record, every buttermilk on the shelves of stores I've seen states "low fat"... Weird....

Red Foley's version of Peace in the Valley was the first gospel song to sell a million copies.
I have buttermilk in the fridge almost all the time. Good buttermilk is not easy to find out West and many stores do not even carry buttermilk on their shelves.I use this for my biscuits but...

It is good stuff in so many ways but yes, it is there sometimes and sometimes not in many stores... (That lowfat stuff is crazy too.)
I used to drink diet pepsi and diet coke, I very rarely even drink regular coke or pepsi due to their stances in some areas but the diet stuff is a farce and way worse for you than the real stuff. Just control thyself....
Lowfat buttermilk sux. big time.I use this for my biscuits but...

Whole milk buttermilk is true buttermilk.
Kroger brand whole is excellent, been drinking it and using it in recipes for many years. can’t beat it. $1.79 half gallon forever, then two weeks ago jumps to $2.99. thanks cho.
My Dad loved buttermilk. Being born on a farm, etc. Me....no thanks.
But I will take it in some recipes. Soaking chicken pieces in buttermilk for fried chicken is the only way to do it.

Buttermilk is the only kind if milk i’ve ever drank since i’ve been old enough to hold a cup. weird i guess. one of my favorite morning snacks is leftover cold pizza with cold buttermilk straight from the jug—no biggy since nobody drinks it but me.
This is very good too but about twice the price.

Update on ww2 vet’s age—guy on a walker actually just turned 95 in april—his buddy, ww2/korean vet, just turned 96 around the same time. older guy drives him around and doesn’t look his age. 🇺🇸
Yeah, no Krogers near here. Checked Walmart, Aldi, Lidl, and another store or two including the Commissary of Fort Belvoir.....
I wouldn't touch this buttermilk if I had my druthers.
Yeah, the inflation happening now is draining decent people. Just criminal what is happening.
Throw it away!!! It's way out of date!!!!!Buttermilk is the only kind if milk i’ve ever drank since i’ve been old enough to hold a cup. weird i guess. one of my favorite morning snacks is leftover cold pizza with cold buttermilk straight from the jug—no biggy since nobody drinks it but me.

Shoot Sir, The picture I posted was out of date the 19th but I drank it today. I am doomed....
We'll keep them both as long as we can. 🗽

So far this has not been a great year for my tomatoes. The romas are a complete bust due to blossom end rot even though I'm adding plenty of calcium to the soil. I only grow them for salsas and sauces because on their own they're kind of bland. The other plants are just so-so. I'm wondering if the cicadas have anything to do with the problem. We were inundated by those bastards and I had to pick off several each day. From my understanding, veggies and herbs shouldn't have been a concern BUT...
Our garden is doing good. But we had no, nada, zero cicadas....so maybe that has something to do with it. Tomato plants are so big and bushy it's hard to see if we have any ripening yet. Don't think so. We got about 2 bushels of squash, zuchini, and cukes yesterday (she made 4 loaves of zuchini bread today). Corn is tall and green with no blight, etc. Potatoes look good. Got a few onions.
Full disclosure....the Mrs has done most of the work. Once all the flowers in the flower gardens/borders start to bloom the veggie garden is her 'go to'. Me....I do the tilling...help with the planting....and that's about it. Mowing/trimming is a full time job.
There is a dairy in my area that has the best milk around, including their buttermilk (the brand is Shamrock). I was complaining about them not carrying Shamrock buttermilk and the manager of our Kroger (called Fryes out here - there are no Kroger stores out here) told me that their branded buttermilk is Shamrock buttermilk in a Fryes' container. I tried it and found that it was true. I'm fairly sure that it is this way many places so there is probably no uniformity to a Kroger brand. Depends on where you are.

Our peppers, hot and bell, are thriving and the herbs are growing like gangbusters. Maybe this is just a down year, kind of like last season's UK basketball. So glad though that you've got a prosperous garden. Enjoy the bounty!

I had a friend in Fort Wayne to whom I posted this photo (Indiana School for Feeble Minded Children) and asked him if this was his alma mater. His reply was "Yes it was - and I graduated at the top of my class."
I agree with you. Best use for buttermilk is soaking chicken for frying. Buttermilk is love or hate, kind of like raw oysters. Love raw oysters.
Watched a documentary on the Manson women last night. Such sweet gals. No way they could commit such heinous crimes.

I don't know, my biscuits sure taste better using buttermilk. I like that versus sweet milk (Like my Aunt used to say.)
