Congratulations Barack & family!
After 8 years with you at the helm, and then another 8 with Hillary, I think we’ll be back where we need to be across this country.
What a great day!
It’s true. Happiness is contagious – out to three degrees of separation no doubt – according to Harvard researcher just published in the British Medical Journal.
So apparently the flip side of ‘hanging out with the wrong crowd’ is ‘be happy by hanging out with happy people’. 
My 4×4 Magic Square web page isn’t the prettiest one I’ve ever built [sic], but it sure is fun playing. I thought I accidentally deleted it awhile back, but luckily, I found it the other day.
For those not familiar with Magic Squares, I included some brief instructions and a Wikipedia link on Magic Square history. If you wanna change it’s color theme, I included an option for that too.
One of these days, I’ll get around to an online chess or Sudoku game – now that would be a challenge. Have fun!
Congratulations President-elect Obama!
With relatives flying in from out West to my Aunt’s in Aiken (west of Columbia, SC), this is my weekend driving schedule:
Nat suggested I use Hwy 25 vs. the roller coaster ride of I-26, and I’m sure glad I did. I saw open pastures and the multi-colored leaves of Fall for most of the trip, a nice break from the boring evergreen trees lining I-26 to Columbia.
Our Jensen went to kitty heaven this morning. Nat’s had her for 15 years – that’s 80 for you and I – and almost 4x as long as we’ve been married.
Lung disease was kickin’ her down – so much so she was practically gasping for air. She’d just lay there on the floor all day resting, and we knew her extreme weight loss and heavy breathing weren’t good signs. It got so bad, we couldn’t wait any longer for the medicine’s increased dosage to take effect, and once I reminded Nat how freaked out I was when I couldn’t breath from pneumonia last year, we were off to the vet.
From a funny email I just received:
While walking down the street one day a US senator is tragically hit by a truck and dies.
His soul arrives in heaven and is met by St. Peter at the entrance.
‘Welcome to heaven,’ says St. Peter. ‘Before you settle in, it seems there is a problem. We seldom see a high official around these parts, you see, so we’re not sure what to do with you.’
‘No problem, just let me in,’ says the man.
‘Well, I’d like to, but I have orders from higher up. What we’ll do is have you spend one day in hell and one in heaven. Then you can choose where to spend eternity.’
