1914 - Euclid Avenue and East 105th Street in Cleveland, Ohio became the first intersection in the U.S. to be equipped with an electric traffic light. The lighting ceremony occurred on this day.
1962 - Actress Marilyn Monroe died from a drug overdose in Los Angeles, in a case that is still unsolved and involves a lot of speculation. She was 36 years old. Pigs, severely lacking in imagination, say, "Huh?"

The issue with LA livin is housing cost. Why have your staff livin poor in a 200K house whn they can move to someplace like Oklahoma and be kings for 100K? Because those places have tornadoes and floods. But no earthquakes. Pick your disaster. That's what freedom is all about.

BUT, we have lots of wildfires...

Are y'all dueling again over there on the other coast? Sheesh....what is with you Californians???  Welcome to RR, Kap! Beautiful opener, Scout! I always love the clicks. Mellow,I never got a chance to tell you I like yours yesterday very much too. Thank you very much for taking it for the day as I was doing grandmommy stuff the last two days. Hot and humid as heck here. It's brutal for a few days at around 100. Even the pool is steamy.  Steve, if you see this, you better get the weather a little cooler there if we do manage to come your way in September for the cool mountain climate....you know? Olyve

I'm not getting the humidity here that kap17 is...but I live further east closer to the desert. But it is in the 90's here.
