The first consumer product designed for the Great Reset?

The Swiss company, On Holdings, manufactures running shoes.  I first heard about this company in the Wall Street Journal, in an article about their new "Sustainable" running shoe model, the CloudNeo.  This shoe is designed to be used, worn out, and then returned to the company for recycling.  For maybe the first time, a consumer …

Biden bestowed the highest civilian honor on an anti-police homosexual activist

...who just so happens to lead the US Women's Soccer (socialist sport) Team, which has done much better than the men.  Megan Rapinoe is a smart-ass who has no compunctions about trashing police and her own country.  She is thoroughly undeserving of the high honor of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, and over at RedState.com, …

Independence Day celebration

As we have done in previous years, Hubby and I packed the picnic dinner, new chairs, and blanket, and headed over to Bellevue to watch the fireworks.  Unlike last year, this year's crowd was back to normal, filling the lawn at the Bellevue Downtown Park with picnic blankets, chairs, coolers, and even some shelters.

Wordless Wednesday: Come Outdoors with me

Sunday Stills Monthly Color Challenge: #Pink?

Let it be hereby known to all present that I Hate Pink!  I never wear pink, I don't buy pink furniture or accessories, and I don't like pink precious stones (red is my color).  However, that doesn't mean that I ignore pink things around me, and sometimes even admire them.  For instance, when I bought …
