Thursday Whatever

 It was a Penny for your thoughts at this year's Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show.

As a one-time owner/guardian of two Lhasa Apsos, I was glad to see one finally make the finals of the event:

Obit:  Longtime Indiana congressman Lee Hamilton, 94, has died.

Snip:

Hamilton, 94, was a recepient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom and a longtime scholar on representative democracy at Indiana University after his retirement from Congress, where he served during the presidential terms of Lyndon B. Johnson through Bill Clinton. He died Feb. 3 at his home in Bloomington, his daughter told the New York Times.

Gov. Mike Braun ordered flags across Indiana to be flown at half staff at all state facilities to honor his passing, until sunset on the day of his internment. Braun's office said that information would be shared with the public and called on "all Hoosiers to help honor Hamilton by lowering flags to half-staff at their homes and businesses."
