Bacon disappearing:
Well, I’ll be darned. It’s June. The loveliest of months they say. Summerish but not quite hottish. The greens have deepened and flourish. The grey of winter is long gone and tehstubborness of spring has ebbed. It is the month for brides and grooms and sweet honeymoons. And many a lovesick loon has swoonned by the light of the silvery moon. It's about geminis, gentle folk. And kids smiles are as bright as that longest day as schools close the doors for a month or two. And it has among other things, D-day which set freedom aringing. So, Happy June everybody.
I look at an oyster and think to myself, now there is a creature that was bypassed by evolution. Yet inside is a nector that sets tastebuds aswirl and perhaps at times deliver a pearl.
The Question:
Name five different kinds of Penquins.
The Headlines:

The Tids Chief Linquist also known as the Punster Laureate sends us tis: “If you ever think the English is not a weird language, just remember that read and lead rhyme and read and lead rhyme. But read and lead don’t rhyme and neither does read and lead." Got it?
One thing that seems apparent is that buckets of money don't make people smarter. Check put daily headlines on athletes, celebrities and various business leaders.
Henry the Eighth probably should have pardoned his wives. Good news! A new study says there is less of a chance that the Milkey way and the Andromda galaxies will crash. Some days things just go our way.
With complete respect for the athletes and their achievement, I still have to wonder if Oklahoma City versus Indiana isn't the last twosome the NBA honchos want in their national final. Everything is about money. BTW, on paper, Oklahoma City should waltz home. But that’s what they said about Cleveland too. There is something inside the Pacers, and they aren’t just about superstars. There weren’t Cinderellas in the NCAA tourney this year. Maybe Indiana is it for all to cheer.
Isn’t it interesting how humans can grasp on to things they do not know. Auras emanate and people become entranced.
Somehow, Rimsky-Korsakov's Sheherazade always sounds pretty good to me. Maybe I have always been intrigued with Persian princesses and magic carpet rides. Or maybe its just I dream of Jeannie.
Utz Cheeseball gallon containers make great bedside nightstands. But don’t tell my wife.
How come social media is so anti-social?
In case you missed it, the USA is still operating under Baiden's last budget, so expect your representatives to be running home with the money that still unspent. The four Dem RI contingent a has a month left to look like heroes. That’s just the way it is.
Another fact of life: China is a big country with a big plan and China will do what China wants to do.
Just had a dealer try to sell me a piece of stone he said was from Ireland and kissed by St Patrick. When I looked underneath it said 'Made in China.' It was a sham rock.
The Answer:
People are enthralled by penguins. But basically, they are just bords that walk a lot in kind of a Charlie Chaplin way. Yet actually it is mesmerizing to watch them dive into pools in aquariums and zoos. There are 18 species of Penguins: King, Emperor, Royal, Adelie, Macaroni, Gentoo, Galapagos, Magellanic, Humbolt, African, Snares, Fjordland, Little Blue, Yellow Eye, Erect Crested, Northern Rockhopper, Southern Rockhopper and Chinstrap. The tallest penguin is the emperor at about four feet and the smallest is the Little Blue at about a foot.
Happy June, E-v-e-r-y-b-o-d-y!!
