D-Day The 6th Of June

This morning when I logged in the wallpaper on this computer was a photo of Etretat, Normandy, France. 


Operation Overlord the code name for the Normandy invasion. 

133,000 men stormed the beaches of Normandy. This beach (Etretat, Normandy, France) was not one of the 5 designated UTAH, OMAHA, GOLD, JUNO, & SWORD although it was close. At the bottom of the picture above and around the corner was the beach designated SWORD. 

I'm not going to go into a lot about D-Day and the 10,300 men that died that day. 

I will say that D-Day is a big crossword puzzle answer though. 

Remember that the previous President of the United States called all those brave men "Losers and Suckers".  Vote for somebody else in 2024. 

Camping next week.

Stay tuned.

The Why Files

If you're not a subscriber, check it out. 

What is it, you ask?

It's a YouTube Channel. 

I'm a great fan of Ancient Aliens on the History Channel. Kind of goes along with my previous post "Do You Believe". They did an episode called "The Reptilian Conspiracy".

How does this fit in with the Why Files? The Why Files have Hecklefish. He's a kind of Gold Fish with a heckling attitude, thus Hecklefish. He's big on Lizzid Peeple.

On the Ancient Aliens episode, I just made an off hand comment about, well this is what I said:

"We have Sasquatch, Loch Ness Monster, and Champ why not Lizzard People. Hecklefish will be ecstatic."

Actually according to Hecklefish that should be Lizzid Peeple. 

For those 4 words (Hecklefish will be ecstatic.) I've gotten, so far, 169 very nice replies. I'm astounded. On the other hand, the Why Files have 2.18 million subscribers. As they say on the Ginsu Knife commercials: "Wait there's more". Maybe I'll get more replies.

If you aren't a subscriber, you're missing out on some really good story presentations. New episodes come every Thursday and there are a bunch for you to catch up on.

So visit AJ & Hecklefish. You won't be disappointed. Here's the latest episode:
