I have been shopping at Food Lion lately in an attempt to stop the restaurant habit I've acquired over the past few years.
Toward that end they see me usually once and sometimes twice a week and the bill is typically 'sixty something'.
I have noticed a distinct pattern with this and it's somewhat disturbing when I note that I really do need replenished stores when I go there.
After wandering through the isles even when I arrive with an agenda in the form of a list or simple impulse buy the outcome is typically the same.
I keep thinking I should have studied home economics with my sister in high school rather than agriculture.
I don't know, perhaps the mechanics I learned then have secretly served me better, but I find my domestic skills distinctly lacking in this my old age.
Sometimes I think I cook okay. Other times I think I suck at cooking.
Regardless, the expense seems a bit more than I had envisioned and it's likely to get worse.
Perhaps my personal food bill actually isn't all that high in reality ...
Today is Flag Day in the United States.
Commemorating the adoption of the flag of the United States of America on June 14, 1777 by the 2nd Continental Congress.
The day was officially proclaimed by President Woodrow Wilson on August 3, 1949 resulting in the national holiday via act of congress.
However, Flag Day is not an official federal holiday.
Happy Flag Day to you !

I am not into mixed marriages personally. I have had several long term relationships involving persons as close to "my existence" as I could for reasons that are simply attraction in nature.
However, I think if that if your interests are more exotic and your attraction is someone whose existence is divergent or even opposite of your then it should be your right to pursue any manner of relationship you might deem appropriate.
When I was a kid there was a supreme court decision toward that end and the concept of "miscegenation" which is the interbreeding of people considered to be of different racial types.

I really don't fully understand the issues of the times which were notions of Jimmy Carter's 'ethnic purity' pursuasion and they were by and large passe by the early 1980s - 1990s.
Loving Day is an annual celebration held on June 12 marking the the anniversary of the 1967 United States Supreme Court decision Loving v Virginia which struck down all anti-miscegenation laws remaining in those state in which they remained on the books.
The initiating couple were Mildred Jeter Loving who was a black woman, and Richard Loving, who was a white man.
Subsequent claims have been made by Mrs Loving's grandson that she was not a black woman, but a Native American.
They met when he was 17 and she was 11 so they were childhood sweethearts by my recollection.
No mixed race couple should have been forced to a supreme court case to marry and live happily.
This is the United States after all, you know ... life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness despite what the democrats might think to the contrary.
Why would we care that somebody loves somebody else?

![]() William West Anderson September 19, 1928 – June 9, 2017 |
In my childhood, I was a big fan of the Batman television series starring Adam West and Burt Ward.
Now in my child orientation to all things at that juncture I was unable to discern the tongue in cheek schtick of this program and I simply viewed it as a serious foray into science fiction and that super hero worship of which I was held in it's grip of starstruck awe for years.
Later, in my adult life I was fairly put out with myself for actually believing in this stuff because at that time it was evident that they were poking fun at me the entire time.
Adam West was the stage name of William West Anderson. He was an American actor known primarily for his role as Batman in the 1960s ABC series of the same name and its 1966 theatrical feature film. The film career of Adam West began in the 1950s.
He played in Geronimo in the year 1962 opposite Chuck Connors.
He was featured with The Three Stooges in The Outlaws Is Coming in 1965.
He was also in the science fiction film Robinson Crusoe on Mars in the year 1964.
He did voice work on The Fairly OddParents from 2003 through 2017 as well as The Simpsons from 1992 through 2002 and was a staple on Family Guy from 2000 through 2019. He portrayed fictional versions of himself in all three.
Late in his career, Adam West starred in two direct-to-video animations of Batman; Batman: Return of the Caped Crusaders, and Batman vs Two-Face which was released after his passing.
Mr West died from leukemia in Los Angeles, California, on June 9, 2017. Rest in peace.

![]() Ronald Wilson Reagan 40th President of the United States |
Ronald Wilson Reagan was an American actor who ran for and became 40th President of the United States from 1981 to 1989.
He was a staunch proponent of defense and his administration brought the social scene back to the White House primarily due to his First Lady, Nancy Reagan which was likely a refreshing change of pace from the frumpy countryfied anachronistic Carters, their tedious self limiting need to make the country suffer, the misguided mercy of the Mariel boatlift of 1980 which brought nothing but criminals and crazies from Cuba, and their fugly daughter.
Jimmy Carter was a decent human being. Sometimes though bringing resources to bear on a situation better left alone is a poor utilization and this man was a poor utilizer of the resources of our country. Mr Reagan was no such squanderer of what we have in the way of resources and he wasn't the office monetizing criminal principals of the Clinton regime with their equally fugly daughter.
He was known for his humor and belief in UFOs and some of his open mike episodes were hilarious such as referring to the Soviet Union as the "evil empire" and "let the bombing begin".
Ronald Reagan went down hard with that "long goodbye" extended spate of Alzheimer's and he and his family suffered greatly from that end. His state funeral was televised nationally and I viewed this and his grieving family with sympathy having suffered my own paternal bereavement.
My only criticism of the entirety of his administration was his selection of George Bush as his vice president but at that time we didn't know what we know now regarding his deep state shadow government roots and really, this has sullied the entire Bush family reputation ad nauseum as far as I am concerned.
When Ronald Reagan was president of the United States I was much less politically active nor interested in things political nor the body politic.
It was a Republican era with a sucessful chief executive who did not have to suffer the false accusations and name calling of leftist libtard outlets like cnn as a matter of daily operations.
Those liars simply were suppressed by their deep state handlers and the office monetizing Clintons, the brigand Obamas, and the traitor Bushes were simply upcoming ... with the first Bush even being vice president.
It is sad we cannot look into the future and it's sadder still that we can't snatch these deep state shadow government traitors created by Harry Truman and shove them against a wall, shoot them dead, and allow them to rot where they drop.
The deep state, shadow government, and democratic party are all a con with nothing to them aside except evilness. Their constituents are equally stupid, vile creatures unable to grasp reality in their quest to control the Republic, redistribute the wealth of the worker to the socialist shirker and the illegals they would allow to flood our borders — all in the name of more votes that they might assume power.
I see a time coming when civil war will be upon us when the left finally steps to the point beyond which the right will not go. We're almost there already. Ah, to see Ann Coulter's death squads come to fruition and clean out the riff raff all over the place presently. It will be a good day for the United States of America.
Ronald Reagan did not have to suffer these outrageous types of events imposed upon President Trump because Hillary Clinton had not yet lost the presidency and she and her criminal ilk didn't yet have the nerve to accost the rest of us as they do now.
It's as if they don't think we are aware of what the criminal democratic party, the deep state, and the shadow government are up to. These people who would suppress both The Constitution and Bill of Rights are in our midst and actively attempt to subvert our government toward their own greedy self-serving ends will have to contend with the conservative patriot base which is obviously larger than they realize.
