Fourth Anniversary of PULSE Nightclub shooting.
For those of you who regularly read my blog posts, you know that they are usually informative with a bit of sarcasm and what I consider wit, thrown in. Today’s post takes a more somber and reflective tone as we remember the forty-nine victims of the Pulse Nightclub shooting.
Things you can do during this pandemic to honor and remember the forty-nine souls lost on that tragic day.
1. At 7 p.m. Friday, the onePULSE Foundation will stream a pre-taped ceremony on its Facebook page and YouTube channel. The program includes the reading of the 49 names by family members and remarks from Poma, Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer, Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings and onePULSE Foundation board chairman Earl Crittenden.
2. Donate to the OnePulse Foundation. https://onepulsefoundation.org/donate/. The OnePulse Foundation is raising money for a permanent memorial and museum. They also have a scholarship fund and plan on giving out $333,000 for the 2020-2021 school year.
3. If you are a gun control advocate, today would be a good time to contact your state representative, Senator and congressman/congresswoman.
4. There is still time to sponsor someone in the 2020 CommUNITY Rainbow run as it has been rescheduled to September. https://www.communityrainbowrun.com/
5. Lastly, take a few minutes to pause, read this poem, and reflect. This poem was posted on Facebook by a friend of mine who lives in Orlando.

First Helmet Grease Road Tour in the books!
Wow, what an amazing two weeks on the road with Helmet Grease!
After an incredibly productive two days in Nashville, we hit the road for Memphis.
On the way to Memphis we stopped into one of Miranda’s locations of off I-40 West.
This was by far the most interestingly named towns of the entire trip…Bucksnort.
We managed to visit fifteen different cities and towns and over thirty Adult Stores!
We met wonderful, welcoming folks in every store, and they were all very excited about our products.
We did many in-store comparisons, and yes, our lube came out on top every time!
Vegas was our final stop before heading home to Hermosa Beach, CA and Vegas totally lived up to it’s reputation. We even managed to do business in the valet parking area of Ceaser’s Palace as we were about to leave!

And we’re off!
Our current location is Tannersville, VA, population 305. Yes, that is three hundred and five people, give or take deaths and births. Why Tannersville? I have a tree farm in Tannersville and we stopped by to check on it before we leave on the Helmet Grease 2020 Road Tour.
