   I use the scissors on my Swiss Army Knife.

   Cannot argue with that. Eleven or twelve years ago we had a pair of Screech Owls that stayed in a small tree in our lower yard. On Independence Day that year, the fireworks table was pretty close to the tree, about five yards or so. Halfway through the show we noticed that they had not moved from the tree. They did not even move when my best friend and I went to check on them. We stopped the show and let the kids come down and look. They still never moved. We sent the kids back up and continued on. They NEVER MOVED! Every other critter in the valley, including my dogs, had headed for the hills. Actually, the dogs were in a room in the house watching Doggy TV, but that is a story for another day. Also, I don’t think birds get much smarter than crows. They like to be entertained.

   My oldest daughter is a Freshman English teacher. As I am typing this post, she is sending me pictures from a presentation being given by a local owl rescue agency. The first picture was a Barred Owl. I wish I could attach the picture, but I cannot. Beautiful creature.

   About six months ago my youngest daughter (11) dug the Wii we had bought for her older sister now 26 and brother now 23 when they were around her age. I have really enjoyed re-learning the games with her. She really loves the tennis and dance games. Building memories…

   I still read books on a regular basis, But I also utilize and because the reader can find thousands of books that long been out of print and very hard to find. I have spent may good hours reading countless works from The Golden Age of SF and plenty of History and Philosophy works as well.

   I wish it were possible to post pictures. A local Mom and Pop auto repair shop in our town every fall changes their marquee sign to read, “Pumpkin Spice Oil Changes Are Back!” Good humor and I am sure someone falls for it.

   The strip is referring the way some, not all, people live their lives today. Scared to leave their homes due to crime, fear of illness, and social reasons. I cannot and will not do this. Also, there is the commentary on the insane hours Amazon drivers work. Case in point. This past Sunday night an Amazon driver delivered a package at around 2130 and needed help backing back down our driveway because he was getting flagged for taking too long at our house. No I don’t have a time machine, but I do wish there was more personal interaction among people. It would make for a nicer society as a whole.

   Good for them! That is a school project I would gladly support! I will have to mention it to the Building Trades and Metal fabrication teachers at the high school where my daughter teaches, and my wife is the bookkeeper. Both are friends of the family.
