I am the consumate chocoholic.

That taste, the increased serotonin and dopamine levels it can impart may be part of that desire to ingest all I encounter ...

To the chagrin of my acne and rosecea.

It's all more with which I can contend at times because that wish to eat chocolate sometimes assumes control of the immediate moment until such time as I wash it down with coffee or what have you.

I am particularly attracted to fudge brownies.

I will buy extra brownies and pass them out to my cohorts in an effort not to feel alone in my consumption.

Today is either World Chocolate Day or International Chocolate Day depending on your orientation.

It goes down each July 7 and it is said that the day commemorates the introduction of chocolate to Europe in the mid 1500s.

Regardless of your orientation to the world, if you're a nationalist or some stupid globalist one thing is certain.

Chocolate is a constant in the absence of allergy.

I can't imaging being "allergic" to chocolate myself — but indeed I do suffer consequences from my habit.
 

National Fried Chicken Day was created for people like me ...

We who lived in Southern California, got into GREAT shape eating baked skinless chicken breast with a big slice of pineapple on top — then returned to the deep South and resumed our Kentucky Fried Chicken addictions with diasterous results.

The day is held each year on the sixth of July and the chains typically mark the day with various promotions.

All I can say is that I have loved the original recipe of KFC since childhood and have devoured copious buckets full at various times in my life and it shows.

I keep wanting to eat better, but it hasn't been happening.

All of the foods I have been warned to avoid keep turning up and I don't feel that I will ever see a healthy diet again since I departed LA so many years back when I was young.
 

Asteroid Day aka International Asteroid Day is an annual international event which is held on the anniversary of the Tunguska event that took place on June 30, 1908.

We've had a number of proximities which qualify as "near miss" in astronomical terms and some of the conjecture has been really out there with 'spaceship' asteroid supposition and other extra terrestrial modalities which possibly mimic the presence of asteriods.

I remember in the old days learning about the asteriod belt in our solar system and the information has been difficult to track given my preoccupation with things related to employment so suffice it to say that I am not nearly as knowledgeable as I was in a younger day.

Asteroid Day aims to raise awareness about asteroids and what can be done to protect the us from potential catastrophic events.

The entire notion gives me those fleeting images of the move Armageddon and the asteroid apocalypse it entailed.

Brrr !
 

Joel Steven Siegel July 7, 1943 – June 29, 2007

Back in the old days ... you know, when the main stream media was remotely believable and not the manipulative political yellow thing it has become as of the Obama administration and probably beginning through that of both traitor Bushes as well I was partial to a few personalities presenting the information on these outlets.

One of them was Joel Siegel, a film critic who I enjoyed for his opine on the various movies of the day. You know, the media outlets producing films are JUST as big a set of dirtbags as the democrats and the mainstream media cabal.

Joel Siegel was an American film critic who I usually encountered on ABC.

He won emmys and also worked as a radio disc jockey and an advertising copywriter.

Joel Siegel passed from colon cancer on June 29, 2007 in New York.

I would have liked to see him work quite a bit longer as his input was always something I looked forward to during that time my day was a hectic futile mess otherwise.
