Joke of the Day:

What sort of martial arts do cow do?

Moo-jitsu.

I think that's quite appropriate for HHW.

Today I saw SIX people riding Bird scooters. I rarely see anyone. Perhaps they suddenly became popular.

Continued coping vibes to Jrand and family.

Jack, I think you're quite right to keep busy. I'm glad you have siblings who are helping out.

Very glad to hear the news about the interested agent, Larry. I hope this proceeds.

Very good news about Mego.

Vibes to all.

Good night.

I can hear fireworks but I walked outside and there are none to be seen.

Good evening.

Cute quote today.

Evidently, there is a LOUD fireworks display going on pretty close to where I live. I would guess down in Tumwater Valley, which is too far for me to see from my place (even on the third floor), but not too far to hear it.

The noise must be driving my niece crazy! My cat's not reacting to the noise much at all. I guess that that's a good thing.

Fireworks in Arizona is the stupidest thing ever. It is SO dry here. I don't think we've really had measurable rain since February or March. Home fireworks were illegal here for decades. Then one year they legalized them. Very stupid.

Very stupid.

From our place we watched some of the fireworks across the river in various parts of Portland.

Hopefully, they don't learn the error of their ways the hard way. $:-\$

The fireworks noise has stopped.

Listening to Lalo Schifrin: A Life in Music four-CD box set - wonderful stuff. Lalo lives next door to Richard Sherman.

Greetings from downtown Beirut!

TCB · « **Reply #173 on:** July 04, 2018, 11:25:07 PM »

Actually, that’s not true. I imagine it is quieter in Beirut tonight than here in Tacoma.

TCB · « **Reply #174 on:** July 04, 2018, 11:26:44 PM »

The fireworks started slowly around 8:00 p.m.

TCB · « **Reply #175 on:** July 04, 2018, 11:27:49 PM »

By 9:00 p.m. they were in full force.

It is still going on in Portland,

TCB · « **Reply #177 on:** July 04, 2018, 11:29:04 PM »

At exactly 11:00, the north end grew really quiet.

TCB · « **Reply #178 on:** July 04, 2018, 11:31:19 PM »

I imagine the stillness had more to do with an appearance by Tacoma cops, rather than the kindness by any of these neighborhood goons.

Nicky hasn’t been too concerned by the noise.
