Okay its only 5:30pm CST and I am already 5 drinks deep. I have a pretty heavy pour too so I can't really be held responsible for anything I post before tomorrow morning. Plan to watch movies until I pass out.

We saw a family of Canadian geese hurry down and across the fairway on the 1st hole of golf yesterday.

2 mature adult birds and 3 little guys

I'm up to my ass in geese. This is from the pond just outside my deck. The little ones get big real fast and in a couple of weeks you can't tell the babies from the parents.

two days ago my first baby fawn showed up in the front yard. it was 3 days old as she had it about 100 yards from the house in the tall grass. they hung around for a few hours before finding a better spot to hide from the coyotes that live on the property.

If you insist on boxing me in; George Santayana on acid, mixed with some David Hume and garnished with a blend of HST and Spinoza. Other blends churn beneath the surface.

well its obviously zeno as he is well read and a literary type of guy.
i just read how to fix things and informative stuff.
so ill let you decide which is the man that is closest to him and which has passed on the way of life that does nothing but lead to perturbing a person.

I am not looking forward to having to wear a mask when out in public. I have worked in the clean room of a semi conductor manufacturer. Gowning up is uncomfortable; one hint that may help others: Don’t nick your eye when Gowning up, having to spend an hour with your face bathed in a mixture of snot and tears makes for a bad hour of your life.

My whole life has been an exercise in stupidity.
The best example was when we were commissioning a robot palletiser
One pallet got stuck on the conveyor, I breached the safety fence to free it up , just before I did so I realised that as soon as the robot detected it it would move down to pick it up, and cut my head off.
