Don't think I'll jog till much later in the afternoon/early evening, when it's cooler.

DR slingshot, are you going to picket the offices of big gamer dentist Walter Palmer?  The scumbag should be in prison.

I agree, if he's guilty. And by his comments, he is.

I still don't get the "hunting for sport" mentality.  There was an episode of "Northern Exposure" where John Cullum's character wanted to go hunting, and maybe his very young wife didn't want him to kill any animals (that's the part I don't remember), but he ended up putting a camera on his gun stock and was able to "shoot" his animals by taking pictures.  I do remember that it was a great episode.  That's what everyone should do...just take pictures!

Private listings are a common practice in communities where real estate prices are very high.  This prevents the realtors from dealing with "window shoppers"...folks who want to look but can't afford to buy.

I do not understand the mentality of hunting for trophies.  There are people dying the husks of elephants so the ivory hunters will leave the elephants alone.  It is sad to see them that way but at least they are alive.

The realtor we used talked about what she did to be sure anyone looking at our home was qualified to buy.  High end home or not you don't want people wasting your time or just browsing.  We were surprised to see an open house at the condo two floors above us.  You want a realtor open house but I don't believe too many people buy something at an open house.

While I was typing the last post I had to take a break when a cherry tomato got stuck in my throat.  Poor Keith.  I was rather scared and barely getting any air.  I was rather vocal about it and wanted him next to me, just in case.  Neither of us have ever done the Heimlich maneuver and I wasn't sure he could do it if it came to that.  I was pretty close to asking him.

Canada Dry sounds good right now and I wish I had some.  Fritos, as much as I enjoy them, would likely hurt.

Mmm...Fritos. :) Now that you've both mentioned them, I think I might need to go to our staff room and get some from the machine that dispenses such products.  I haven't had any in a while and I do like them.

The avocado in the salad I was eating is also soothing.  I save some for the end, after I ate the carrots.  I also only took one tomato at a time and made sure to bite into it.

Well, this is really cool...Oh the horror! Film shooting in southeast Olympia.  The female director (who also starred in it) graduated from Olympia High School and wanted to make a horror movie that could appeal to other female horror movie fans.  They just finished filming last week here in Olympia, Centralia and Tacoma, and it sounds like a movie to watch out for.

What brought me to that article was that I just read another article about someone who turned out to be one of the actors in that locally filmed horror movie:  Fugitive’s role in horror film leads to arrest in Olympia! :o

Evidently, one of the actors ("who was well-liked by the cast and crew") skipped out on his probation after being sentenced to 117 months for armed robbery.  He was recognized after the above article was in the local paper.

So, the tip of the day is don't make a movie when there's a warrant out for your arrest.

Yikes, DR Jane, I'm glad you're OK!  When my book group was here last week one of the ladies had that happen with an almond.  I almost had to call Paramedic Rob, but she was able to cough it up.

I just bought one of those at Staples so my chair can glide over the edge of an area rug onto the wood floor under my desk.  It's working beautifully!

Well, I just got a call from my mom inviting me to dinner because my sister and niece are going over there for dinner.  So, I'm off to my parents' house.

Have a good rest of the evening, all!

I'm having a nice glass of Caymus Cab right now. Ready to relax and enjoy it. And maybe another after that.
