My Sometimes-Long-Winded Thoughts
Cloudy with
some very light snow. It’s OK because it’s
winter. It is a quick storm with no measurable snow.
The
Cardinals lost last night. Thankfully Budda has been released from the hospital
is on his way back to AZ.
I had lunch
with Andy and Faith. We planned to go to the Mongolian Grill, but it was closed
‘due to staff shortage’, so we ended up at Wildflower. Good food, good conversation.
The 5G controversy
continues. There has been way too much advertising and not enough coverage of
the science. I expected better from Verizon and AT&T and from my government.
I read an article
about the National Western Stock Show happening in Denver. As a kid, my dad
worked at Armour. That meant we went to the stock show every year, got good
seats for the rodeos, and spent way too many hours looking at cattle and hogs
when Armour had entries. Great memories all the same.

his arm around.
Then I was
caught on the hook.
