When deputies arrived, they found 66-year-old Laura Ann Carleton with a gunshot wound. She was pronounced dead on the scene.

According to the San Bernardino Sheriff's Department, the suspect, Travis Ikeguchi, "made several disparaging remarks about a rainbow flag that stood outside the store before shooting Carleton."

Deputies found the suspect armed with a handgun.

"When deputies attempted to contact the suspect, a lethal force encounter occurred and the suspect was pronounced deceased," read an update from the sheriff's department. No deputies were injured.

I have not gone car shopping in many years but there is a Kia here that cost $63,000.00. I would never spend that much money on a car, even if I won the lottery.

Buy a Used Car... Eureka Auto Wholesalers buys used government vehicles at auction in Sacramento and then sells 'em cheap. and when I took my van to Jiffy Lube... they had a record of having serviced the vehicle many times... because the government employees LOVE to drive over to Jiffy Lube and spend an afternoon WATCHING TV AND GETTING PAID...

All About Targeted Advertising Online... 

I looked at a shoe ad awhile back. Now, I am being inundated with shoe ads. The problem is, I don't mind. I seem to have developed a fondness for well-made, expensive, stylish shoes and boots, which is unusual because I'm hardly a fashionista and I buy most of my clothes at Target and Goodwill. So I am very surprised to find myself drooling over $400 boots. (Hardly the most expensive). But thats a bit higher than I paid for the ones I already have. I think I understand Amelda Marcos and Cary Bradshaw much better now. Beautiful, quality shoes are where it's at.

Unfortunately, since I've retired, I have taken a vow of poverty (sort of)(unintentional). So now, I either have to go cold turkey off all shoe ads or return to work to afford my new fetish. I don't even need them. It's that bad.

Some things I can go cheap on like jeans and jewelry. But good leather on my feet is pure artistry.

Do you have a love of something expensive but you feel guilty spending that kind of money on it? What item is the one you'd spend big money on to get top of the line?

Don't talk to me if you buy expensive everything. (Just kidding. Send me shoe-money).
