Narrow things right down with that description!

"The shooter was not immediately arrested. Chacon said the description that police had of the suspect was “not very detailed,” but said the person was believed to be a man."

Today is Saturday, June 12, the 163rd day of 2021.
There are 202 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History:

On June 12, 1987, President Ronald Reagan, during a visit to the divided German city of Berlin, exhorted Soviet leader Mikhail S. Gorbachev to “tear down this wall.”

On this date:

In 1630, Englishman John Winthrop, leading a fleet carrying Puritan refugees, arrived at the Massachusetts Bay Colony, where he became its governor.

In 1939, the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum was dedicated in Cooperstown, New York.

In 1942, Anne Frank, a German-born Jewish girl living in Amsterdam, received a diary for her 13th birthday, less than a month before she and her family went into hiding from the Nazis.


In 1963, civil rights leader Medgar Evers, 37, was shot and killed outside his home in Jackson, Mississippi. (In 1994, Byron De La Beckwith was convicted of murdering Evers and sentenced to life in prison; he died in 2001.)

In 1964, South African Black nationalist Nelson Mandela was sentenced to life in prison along with seven other people, including Walter Sisulu, for committing sabotage against the apartheid regime (all were eventually released, Mandela in 1990).

In 1967, the U.S. Supreme Court, in Loving v. Virginia, unanimously struck down state laws prohibiting interracial marriages.

In 1971, Tricia Nixon and Edward F. Cox were married in the White House Rose Garden.

In 1981, major league baseball players began a 49-day strike over the issue of free-agent compensation. (The season did not resume until Aug. 10.)

In 1991, Russians went to the polls to elect Boris N. Yeltsin president of their republic.

In 1994, Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman were slashed to death outside her Los Angeles home. (O.J. Simpson was later acquitted of the killings in a criminal trial but was eventually held liable in a civil action.)

In 2004, former President Ronald Reagan’s body was sealed inside a tomb at his presidential library in Simi Valley, California, following a week of mourning and remembrance by world leaders and regular Americans.

In 2015, Joyce Mitchell, a worker at the maximum-security Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora, New York, was arrested on charges of helping two convicted killers escape; Mitchell later pleaded guilty to promoting prison contraband and was sentenced to 2 1/3 to seven years in prison.

Ten years ago: The Dallas Mavericks won their first NBA title by winning Game 6 of the finals against the Miami Heat, 105-95. “The Book of Mormon” took home nine Tony Awards, including the prize for best musical; “War Horse” won five Tonys, including the best play award.

Five years ago: A gunman opened fire at the Pulse nightclub, a gay establishment in Orlando, Florida, leaving 49 people dead and 53 wounded; Omar Mateen pledged allegiance to the Islamic State group during a three-hour standoff before being killed in a shootout with police.

One year ago: Rayshard Brooks, a 27-year-old Black man, was shot and killed by one of the two white officers who responded after he was found asleep in his car in the drive-thru lane of a Wendy’s restaurant in Atlanta; police body camera video showed Brooks struggling with the officers and grabbing a Taser from one of them, firing it as he fled. (An autopsy found that Brooks had been shot twice in the back. Officer Garrett Rolfe faces charges including murder.) A federal judge ordered Seattle police to temporarily stop using tear gas, pepper spray and flash-bang devices to break up peaceful protests. The Oregon Supreme Court upheld Gov. Kate Brown’s shutdown orders aimed at stemming the coronavirus pandemic. William Sessions, a former federal judge appointed by President Ronald Reagan to head the FBI and fired years later by President Bill Clinton, died at his Texas home at the age of 90.

Hiya, Dave. I'll do this over a few posts, just because.

It was a great day overall. The wedding itself was nice. Not too many showed up at the church because it was at 2:pm on a Friday.

Didn't get to the game until late but happy to report my godson pitched a complete game win 6-2. They are state champions in their division. Apparently, there is a regional interstate championship game on Monday, also at home. This season seems never ending but it's also a fun ride.

The reception was nice and the food was good.

Music was a bit too loud for my tastes. In fact, couldn't get to sleep easily last night because my ears were ringing. Turns out my sons' gym teacher was the DJ. That was a real coincidence because these are two completely different worlds. I've known the bride her whole life. Our parents were lifelong friends from Italy and then from the town I grew up in Jersey.

Not a dry eye in the house during the speeches. The groom's dad past away last week after a long struggle with cancer. He had recorded a video which they showed after the cocktail hour. After that it was all smiles, laughter, and dancing. They did a great job addressing the elephant in the room but still threw a beautiful party in the spirit that the groom's dad would have insisted on.

And the worst of it is that I don't give a rat's ass about the flowers. Every year my wife buys a bunch of stuff and then they just sit in the flats until they die. Obviously she's waiting on the sucker to take care of it. The best part is that afterwards she tells me, "Oh I wanted this one planted there instead. Would you mind moving it?" Hell yes, I mind!

Tell her to lay them out where she wants them, then you'll plant them. You'll either have her not do it and avoid the job completely, or she'll do it and you only have to plant them once!
