June 15, 1987: Pet Shop Boys released the single ''It's a Sin''.
'When we brought out “It’s a Sin,” it was quite interesting, because people took it really seriously; the song was intended as a camp joke and it wasn’t something I consciously took very seriously. The local parish priest in Newcastle delivered a sermon on it, and reflected on how the Church changed from the promise of a ghastly hell to the message of love.'' - Neil Tennant
''I’ve become less religious as I’ve got older. Even when I wrote ''It’s a Sin'' part of me was probably still a Catholic. The thing that I always liked about Catholicism they got rid of!

Today was a great day! I hosted another "wine tasting" with my four grown nieces and cousins. We each bring a bottle of wine and have a little taste of each and rate them. Some were very good, some not so much. We had a lot of laughs and great food, then played cards in the yard. It was a beautiful day. We had mostly store bought or bakery items to make it easier.
