Which two Presidents died on the same day?

My first thought - and this trivia question didn't tell me - was were there two state funerals and were they on the same day?    Answer at the bottom.

 

There is a device widely advertised on television which one wears around one's neck, and if one falls it automatically summons a posse of hunky looking firemen.   I got a call today from this company because my doctor - bless her heart - thought I might benefit from it.   Apparently the deal is about $500 to set it up, but I could have this fantastic bargain - the caller breathlessly told me - for just the monthly charge for monitoring it.  

 

Although I declined the offer I appreciated my doctor's thought,  she is the one medical professional I am prepared to pay for, and I usually have to twist her arm to take my cheque.  When I broke my foot some time back she sent me to her friend at a local Orthopaedic Centre who x-rayed it and did what was necessary, provided a boot so I could walk about, and wouldn't accept anything for her services.

 

Coming up to the 4th July everyone is saying America is great, how proud they are to be American, and although I'd never relinquish my own nationality of which I'm proud, I'll  say how grateful I am to the many Americans who are kind to me.

I don't know where this flag-like thing came from, I've had it forever, but I hung it up today for my American cat.    It's the nearest thing I've got to an American flag.

I LOVED Alan Alda and M*A*S*H.    How sad is this.

What I can't figure is what - after the first shark attack - possessed the other six people to jump in the obviously shark infested waters.

Although I haven't any axes to grind I don't think I want either of them dominating my tv viewing for years to come.  Oprah as Trump's Vice President might be interesting.

I think I must be losing weight, all my skirts are falling off me, so I went to Walmart to buy a new one.   I'd forgotten - until I got there - that Oklahoman women don't wear skirts.   An English woman volunteers in the Senior Centre and she remarked once that I dress like an English woman - it must be the skirt that does it.

I might try a more upmarket store, see if they stock any.

 

 

 

Answer - Thomas Jefferson and John Adams -  4th July 1826.     I don't know about their funerals.
