It seemed as if the whole town turned out for the Italian language premiere of Cries from the Cotton Field here in Rocoaro Terme, Italy.
One local lady came up to me in tears for shining a light on the saga of her ancestors.

“Juneteenth” is a Black English contraction, or portmanteau, of the month “June” and the date “Nineteenth.” Juneteenth celebrates the date of June 19, 1865, when enslaved people of African descent in Galveston, Texas, finally learned of their freedom.
I caught a home run ball at the Super Regional softball game today. Unfortunately, it was hit by the wrong team. Ole Miss wins game one 9-7.

Amazing how often a politician blames the “media” when caught in a lie. They don’t like to be held accountable. You can say gas prices are less than $2.00/gallon, but that’s not true. Egg prices aren’t going down and the economy is not booming.
The Truth Matters!

On this date 20-years ago, December 26, 2004, a devastating tsunami caused tidal waves that roared across the Indian Ocean, slamming into the western coast of Indonesia, killing 230,000.
