I was told today that if I want to walk around my house naked, I have to be inside....
Isn't that technically "thoroughout" and not "around?"

I think one has to be outside to walk around the house.

Like the Weird Al lyric from Fat..."When I sit around the house, I really sit around the house."

We just got home. We, and several others had a flight cancellation from San Fran to Edmonton. That little group of 80 people (reduced over time) from extremely different backgrounds soon became a new sort of tight little club on our own simply by being on a plane, then off a plane, then standing around waiting for something to happen, for many hours. It was interesting to me how the 'village' formed so quickly, yet dissipated entirely just 29 hours later. How one unique experience bonds!

Adversity binds others tighter than triumph.

I just found out that they've made a prequel to The Omen. That's interesting for me. Always intrigued by how others perceive the Devil. I'm waiting for a movie where the Devil accidentally saves the world and complains of how a failure he has become by saving the world. "Saving the world!? Phooey!"

I almost bought this today.

This could also be a random meaningless announcement.

That's one of those scary vans. You know? The one middle aged men buy and ride around town looking conspicuous and scary.
Good thing I'm past middle age...

it's actually a conversion van. The thing was in amazing shape for a 35 year old van! The original really wood trim, table, curtains, shades, carpet, upholstery, etc. was very clean mostly undamaged. Had the original TV and VCR and everything on it still worked. Weathered on the outside but it was really nice inside.

So true. Also "when the going gets tough, the tough get going." A few of the airlines ticket people worked from 5 AM to 10 PM straight through. Not their fault, and many of we passengers had a lot of compassion for them, especially because a few of the saner people spread that word. A couple of people were getting very nasty barking at the wrong tree, as it were. I found it a unique study of human behavior. Selfish, and selfless, side by side.

At about 9:30 I went up to one of the attendants, and looked her straight in the eye and asked, "How are you?" She almost cried, I swear. So unbelievably professional. I can't imagine the health care workers in places like Gaza. Such remarkable people everywhere.

The number of insect species dwarfs the number of all other animal species combined. In spite of this, even a college biology graduate is likely to know very little about all of these animals unless they specifically take an entomology course.
