Thursday Thoughts

1.  I've been so busy preparing income taxes, I forgot a holiday since I last posted.



2.  Death has been unexpectedly hitting middle-age men in our locale:  two suicides, heart attacks, strokes. And f***ing cancer (as Sandwhich Life would say) took a lovely local young wife & mother in her 30's, and another who was a hometown celebrity of sorts (1975 Playboy Centerfold).  March winds, please blow the black clouds away; our community has had enough sadness this month.
"Death is a very dull, dreary affair, and my advice to you is to have nothing whatsoever to do with it." 
                      W. Somerset Maugham
3.  In case you weren't aware of it, Atlas Shrugged is finally being made into a movie - a trilogy actually. Part I opens April 15, 2011.  Here's the trailer:

Hey you... it sounds like you've been busy!!! I've had enough to do here at Alluvial Flood Plain State University that I am not getting to read/write as much as I would like to... we need more snow days!!!

I'm sorry to hear about the loss of people in your community... *sighs*
