Forgot to mention that I visited friends Art and Wally day before yesterday. They used to live in our complex - indeed, they were the reason that Mariah and I moved here - but have recently moved out to Indio, about a 40 minute drive east. Art has been having a tough time, between dealing with lung cancer, cardiac arrest, a brain aneurism, blood clot, pneumonia, and, of course, the side effects of the resulting medications. Wally has been a real trooper, but... Was it Bette Davis who said "Getting old is not for sissies"? Nice to see them both, though, it doesn't happen as much as it used to.....
Also forgot to mention a book. I did read at least one non-fiction, a book called "Foolproof" by Greg Ip, who writes for the Wall Street Journal. The premise is that enforced safety is often dangerous, and that sometimes danger makes us safer. Not rocket science, but a fun read, especially given that it reinforces my own prejudices.
That's all for now.....
