I don’t like that George resetting his breakers didn’t help fix the issue. But G, look around the house for all your GFCI outlets. The ones with little trip switches on them, often in bathroom and kitchen. One of those may be on the circuit, could have tripped and needs to be reset at the outlet. Worth checking all those.

Thanks, I have already reset some of those, but I don't know if I've checked all that are here.  I'll look again tomorrow to make sure that I didn't miss any.  I know that there aren't any of those kinds of outlets in the room that lost power.

Annabelle has discovered that there are three - 3 ! ! ! - tiers to the teacart. At the moment, she's sleeping on the top tier next to me, but earlier she rode into the kitchen on the bottom one. I still remain amazed I'm not a drunk.

Amazon Fresh arrived early and, during the brouhaha, Stella ran off into the hall. I ignored her and she returned very soon. Annabelle, after checking out a few empty Amazon bags, tried to follow her but I caught her in time so she returned to her teacart to supervise my unpacking the grocery order.

I know I sang around the house as a young'un...and many of the songs were by Gale Storm ("Memories are Made of This" and "I Hear You Knockin'"), but I also loved "Oh, My Papa" by Eddie Fisher and "Hot Diggity (Dog Ziggity Boom)" sung by Perry Como.

And did anyone know that when Storm made ""My Little Margie" that it was only intended to be a summer replacement show for "I Love Lucy"?  It was so popular that it got its own contract and time slot.

One of my favorite things to do was "The Bunny Hop" dance.

Oddly enough, I was enamored of Les Paul and Mary Ford and their recordings.  That was because my grandfather, who lived with us a few years before he remarried (as a widower), had a wonderful console with record player and a lot of 78 rpm records, including a lot of Paul and Ford's recordings.

"The World is Waiting for the Sunrise' was a particular favorite.

“More than a half-dozen Tesla charging stations were torched near Boston on Monday, police said, in what appears to be the latest attack on the company owned by Elon Musk, the billionaire adviser to President Donald Trump.”

Now, that's not right.

I agree.  Removing goverment chargers seems to help Tesla and anger the people more.

I take my son to a climbing class in Surrey, BC. Park in a massive parking lot that also serves a transit hub. A big chunk of the lot is now rented and fenced off and filled with Teslas the nearby Tesla dealer can’t get rid of. Dozens of this silver tank mobiles and others that I hope decay there for ages.

I fear it’s too late for that, sadly. 😞

I'm not too sure about this, although Musk may have uncovered stuff Trump divulged.  If you recall, he was never given security briefings during his first term because the-powers-that-be distrusted him.  He did not replace them with anyone who was thoroughly briefed, so I doubt any major secrets have been exposed.

Back from rehearsal. We didn't start until almost eight for the run-through so I knew we couldn't do act two. We stumbled through act one, assigned the rest of the scene shift, and then I did detail work with the actors. Tomorrow night, I think Richard Allen will be with us, and Sunday, too. The tracks are just too weird to work with - he's playing the fast stuff VERY fast and the slow stuff VERY slow.
