Strange Sally Diamond. Top Story - June 2025.
I picked up this book at the B&N’s Blind Date With a Book display. I loved the entire concept of selecting a mystery book based on a one-sentence teaser. Especially because they were lovingly wrapped by hand and the handwriting must have taken good effort (if they used the cursive it would have been even more attractive). As a public relations professional I think this marketing technique is brilliant, tapping into the book lovers’ serendipitous desire to be surprised with something new.

No Kings, Today or Ever
I went to the No Kings demonstration in Atlanta today. I was hoping to go there with my son but he worked late last night closing his restaurant and needed more sleep in the morning. Instead, he went to the second anti-immigration policy rally.

Let’s travel back in time, shall we? Imagine yourself in an open town square of the 15th-century Trier, Germany. The town square is full of people, clamoring in anticipation. You are about to watch a marital combat, a duel between a husband and wife.

TACO & PACO. Top Story - June 2025.
On June 1, 2025 Ukraine conducted a massive drone attack on strategic bomber airfields deep in Russia. So deep the drones had to be delivered in secret double ceiling containers by long-haul trucks. The operation had been planned for 1.5 years in complete secrecy and had been personally supervised by President Zelenskyy. The drone attack was incredibly successful as Ukraine claims it has destroyed 41 bombers, or roughly one-third of Russian strategic bomber fleet. Russia has downplayed the operation results claiming that only five bombers had been destroyed.

I Resign from Housing You
To my former tenants: I cannot even call you tenants now, can I? You started out on an official one-year contract to rent my house through a property management company. By the end of that year, you started to have difficulties paying the rent and accumulated fees and penalties that made it unmanageable for you. My property manager wanted to evict you. She actually started the eviction procedure without my approval and wanted to stick me with a bill of over $1,000 for the eviction.

An Impossible Hunt
A fiery dragon hunting for a galaxy so far far away. These striking images captured by the European Southern Observatory with the VLT telescope register what seems to be a hunt of truly cosmic proportions. A dark cloud of dust and gas, known as the cometary globule CG 4, appears to be reaching out to gobble up the spiral galaxy ESO 257-19. In reality, they are separated by a chasm of 100 million light-years.
