June 2016

June marks the beginning of Bikini Season - and so we find the Bunnies, Kelly & Heather, checking out the sun and sand and the glowing debris floating in from Fukushima, while Vicky checks out the Bunnies... And you can check them all out too, as soon as you download the calendar!

As to this month in history: From May 31st to June 1st in 1916, the Battle of Jutland was slugged out between the Kaiser's High Seas Fleet and the British Grand Fleet... though the results were inconclusive strategically, it would be the most deadly day in British Naval history!

On June 4th 1942, 74 years ago, the Battle of Midway would kick off, with disastrous results for the Imperial Navy! Before it was all over, the Aircraft Carriers Akagi, Kaga, Soryu, Hiryu and the Yorktown would have taken that long plunge to the bottom of the Pacific...

Then on June 6th, 1944, Operation Overlord, the Normandy Invasion, commenced, with much unpleasantness involved...

So what does this all demonstrate? I'm not certain... Maybe if you're in the Navy and it's June - don't go near the water!!

Oh, and for those of you keeping score, on June 17, 1775, the Battle of Bunker Hill was also fought (With very little water involved - or Bunker Hill either)...

And speaking of Horrible Events in History - on Tuesday we also posted a new Bunz & Katz page, as the Bat Temp epic of Crime - Punishment and Donuts continues... This time introducing that felonious feline, the 3DD Kitty! Could this be the end for our Dimorphic Duo? Well -- probably not -- as we haven't gotten that letter from the lawyers yet... JQ
