2 transactions at the Michigan Secretary of State today.
having made my first phone appointment, I was out in 19 minutes and 42 seconds.

the clerk was courteous, we both exchanged a few minor jokes and levity.

It felt like the old world

'over shoulder'
power in two panels.

two weeks ago, I tossed my copy of the Cantos across the room.

feels good but you still pick it up and put it on the shelf.

Cutting Key.
having one of those days where you realize you only have one key to your car and stop by the hardware store to get a second one made.

perhaps it's thanki g yourself ahead of time so might say it's common sense but I don't know what is common and the sciences cant explain sense to me. when I worked in the hardware store, I must cut 250 to 300 keys. I could cut a broken key, a bent key, even a twisted key, and half a key if you brought in the lock. The old machines if you follow the guidelines which is helpful, won't help, you need to learn finesse, but there are machines for that today, which are ready, though the operators may not.

from an engineer's standpoint, which is better to learn, Legos or an erector set. this would have been Legos circa 1995.
1977, a friend and I devised backpacks for the crude Lego figures and little flying packs with air tanks, a little generators, living module, we drew schematics and sent them to Lego in Switzerland, they sent a letter back about the idea is a really good but legal stuff, proprietary matters etc. it's too bad my friend kept that letter. for brief shiny moment, we thought imvented the air tank and generator.Year the coast guard cutter came out, built my first Lego spaceship. I still have one single Lego block left from 1971.
there is a plethora of chronological shifting plots within film. True Detective, S3, EP 6 is written, directed and acted with a precision that makes the various timelines seamlessly fit. The story, within memory, time, is truly unique seen through the brilliant Mahershala Ali'character viewpoints concerning memory and loss. Dorff is great in the scene were his old partner forgets when he goes into the next room that Rolands there but doesn't seemed that surprised by it.

Driving across the unused parking sections at Meijer, what do you hear?

A Flock of Seagulls.

I still think Sandy the pony is still America's least expensive entertainment at 1¢ a ride.
