Harvey is here

Hurricane Harvey, or at least what is left of hurricane Harvey, showed up in New England today and brought some rain with it. That made my decision to mow the lawn yesterday morning a pretty good decision.

I like it when I manage to make the occasional good decision.

Here is a deep thought for you to contemplate today:

When life closes a door, open it.
It's a door. That's how they work.

This has been a deep thought for your contemplation.

As promised yesterday, here are some links:

• There are times when I think we push that whole "free speech" thing a little too far. This is not one of those times.



• Best comment: "Try a Paul is Dead sandwich. With cheese."



• Why do I envision people flailing around in spider webs just outside their front door...



• This could explain the generation that came after the hippies.



• We apparently live in a world where the New York Post is publishing stories warning people about dangerous sex positions like it was front page news. If my father were still alive, he would lose his mind. (Also, what the hell is a "penis fracture"?)
