The Coffee House

[Gary A.]

Congratulations, @limr!

36°F (2°C), overcast, with calm air this morning in S.E. Michigan. IOW: It's pretty boring outside.

The love of my life spotted a Red-winged Blackbird yesterday or the day before. Now there are two or three out there. (I just saw two on one of the feeders, myself.) She spotted a couple Common Grackles this morning. This is quite early for both birds. May mean an early spring for us.

Mmmm... coffee...

Gary has plenty, home roasted, freshly ground, hot and steaming ... come on over.

When Gary was grabbing stuff near the vegetable garden for the Flame Tree project, two hummers started flying circuits between the peppers and the tomatoes about a foot off the ground. When Gary first spotted them, he thought it was a mouse ... then a wind tossed leaf ... but it was a pair of hummers flying laps a foot off the ground. Very odd.

Coming in low to avoid RADAR.

LOL ... it really looked like a race, up and down this narrow corridor between the veggies. Gary would love to be a hummingbird.

On the way to work, one day last week, I spotted a Bald Eagle flying along, about 50 yards from the road. Unfortunately, I didn't have a camera nor pace to pull over if I had one.

The inverse squared of the thing is the farther you are from a camera or a place to pull over the better picture you will miss.

Yep! And without doping.

Gary is processing, processing and more processing. He has a deadline to meet and 1,500 Chorus Line images to inspect, cull and process. He has music going in the background, Jimi, Queen, Janis and Ray are helping him process.

That was awesome. They got better the last few games and momentum seemed to be building. I think most of their team has been to the Olympics maybe a couple of times so I wonder if this might have been the last chance at a medal for some of them. Pressure might have been off once they knew they'd clinched a medal.

Same for Germany in hockey, they'll be playing for the gold tonight. They've gotten to be more of a contender, congrats to them.

And congrats to Leo!!!!!!!! For permanently getting the job you already have! lol I know, we have that too, jobs have to be posted etc. etc. yadda yadda and the process drags on... Seriously I'm glad you are no longer just in an interim position, well deserved and I bet it's a good feeling.

Throw in some Ramones so you can knock it out....

So, back in September, I was named the Interim Director of the new program we are in the process of building for the Fall 2018.

As of Monday, I finally have the permanent position.

It's on Shuffle so Gary doesn't have a call on that ... Lil Wayne, Frank, Ella and Bob are here.

They just left and have been replaced by Rod, Ricky, Amy and Stevie.
