I read Contact by Sagan, that was good.

Sharon thinks JC should get in a beer league and drink the beer on the bench and avoid feeling any pain. Take home some ice from the rink for later application (you know, the stuff the zamboni scrapes up, make your own ice pack).

Dave put in a little bit over 2 minutes from 4.5 hours. Got the best check yet by 2 whole dollars. Went to Romayor, TX to get his truck inspected. Remembers a little bit of Carl Sagan. Had Fried Chicken Tenders for lunch. And is chilling nicely!

The first book of his I read was Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark. Then moved onto Pale Blue Dot. I've watched and loved Contact, but sadly have not read it, yet.

Reading the paper ... Sadly, 170,000 acres have been devastated by fires in Northern California, 3,500 structures have been leveled and most sadly, 23 dead. Still no containment in sight. The fires are generating 80mph winds ... near hurricane force winds ... how do you fight that ...

Some extraordinary images in yesterday and today's LA Times.

Sad, but happy that he's saving the animals first

Safari West employees worked to save preserve's 1,000 animals as their homes burned

Very sad Story about the wildfire. Most interesting read, strong recommendation: "Tending the Wild" by Kat Anderson about the Indians who knew how to manage the Californian landscape before the Stupid White Destroyers came.

Wild fires were managed by controlled burning. Burning is natural and good. But if you want to live with it you have to control it, to manage it and to manage water too, drought and flood and all three are connected!!!

It is to be hot dogs for dinner. Dave is not displeased by this. The wild looking cat and the kitten gif are marvelous!

My daughter says that I make the best grilled cheese sandwich.

(The best ones are made with soft white bread, lots of butter, and American cheese...using a cast iron pan, in case you didn’t know).
