Beach please.....

Spent the weekend on the beach. Laying in the sun, watching a pack of whales swim by at sunset, kayaking (and tipping over once...oops). I even saw a pot-bellied pig being walked on the beach. And yes, I was not alone on the beach.... I'll let you all fill in the blank.
Oh and a final note. When I got back to Vegas tonight the taxi driver told me that at 7 pm yesterday it was 107 degrees.
I miss the beach.......

big time

So I have a new invention idea. I think its gonna be a winner....
Got an engineer and a patent attorney hard at work....
It's actually not that exciting and quite simple, but those are the ones that usually pan out. Right?

Happy B-day Don Q

So I just learned that yesterday was Don Quixote's birthday. Not actually his birthday, but the anniversary of the first publishing of the book. 400 years ago yesterday.

I also learned that from his name has derived the word Quixotic which means extravagantly chivalrous or romantic.

NPR radio is so handy....

PS - Happy Mothers day Mom!
