Do you have that Amazon link, DR John G.? When I click through to the Kindle edition, it is offering a completely different translation.

The Harvard Classics version is an abridged version.

The unspeakably handsome Alain Delon has died. And the one obit I saw focused on his looks. He was a very good actor, though. But impossibly good looking.

Happy SUNday to everyone...it's a warm weekend here in LA to go along with our very warm Summer. This week's Broadway Radio Show is Sounds of Summer as I sample 10 recent album releases, which all happen to feature some very talented female vocalists.  You'll hear Grammy winners like Janis Siegel and Tony winners like Patti LuPone along with newcomers like LA's own Natalie Jacob, the UK's Julie Atherton, and a trio of NY's finest performers.

Here it is before the whipped cream goes on.

It looks good.  Is that a graham cracker crust?

Please, light on the whip cream for me ;)

Well, this is cool.  It's a Seattle weather report from about two hours ago:

Wind, rain, lightning: Thunderstorms arrive in western Washington | KING 5 Weather

Cool view of the storm.  I wonder if there is a video from our airport.  I'm sure the people on the plane that took off as the lightening began were relieved to have gotten out of there-lol

We need some of that weather here.

Yes, however, without lightening that can start a fire ;)

Ice cream pie!

I could top the peach pie with, sing with me, vanilla ice cream!

Yum! I like that better than whipped cream.

Did you see a little silhouetto of a man?

Sadly, no!  Sadly, no!  But I did the Fandango.
