Carl contributed this today.
I
very quietly confided to my best friend that I was having an
affair.
She turned to me and asked, “Are you having it catered?”
And that, my friend, is the sad definition of “OLD”!

No doubt about it. There has been a change in the seasons!
We haven't felt 40 degree temperatures in a while. It will take some getting used to again. Guess I'd better pull the jackets to the front of the closet.
We're going to see increasing clouds during the day with a 90% chance for RAIN tonight and, boy, do we need it! Tonight will bring an 80% chance for showers with the temperature falling to 43 degrees.
Sounds like fall to me!
News from Lynne.
"Bob had knee surgery on 9/11 and is home recovering very nicely. Not running any races though. He didn't have to have the full knee replacement which was good. Just home yesterday and uses a walker to get around as he can't put pressure on that leg. Therapy starts Monday in Janesville but the surgery was at Meriter Hospital in Madison. Then in December he will have the right knee done.
It's lucky he loves watching tv as that is about all he can do besides eating. :-)
Bob talked to his mom and she is doing okay. We won't be going anywhere for awhile so lucky we have cell phones to keep in touch with her. We could have had tickets to the Brewer game and luxury seats at the Packer game Sunday. Bad timing."

Uncle Bob called this morning and he sure did sound chipper!
He and I. both, have the same nephrologist so he wanted to tell me about his first visit. He sure does like him and that's good. I like him too.
He had some other news. Friend is about done with his schooling and he will now be permanently stationed in Colorado. I'm sure he'll like it there.

I see my former employer is showing off again. This time in New York.
The Four Seasons Hotel is now booking its new Penthouse suite in the Big Apple. High above Manhattan, the 4,300 square foot suite comes with 24 hour butler and limo driver service and a 360 degree view of the city.
It's "a bit pricey" at $45,000 a night but then again, when you consider the company spent $50 million building the space, $45,000 isn't so much. Let me emphasize, that $50 million wasn't the cost of the building the hotel is housed in. That $50 million was spent on just that one suite.
I'll say one thing for the time I spent working at the Four Seasons. It gave me a chance to see, up close and personal, how the other class lives....and let me tell you, they live very well.
If you should decide you want to spend a night there, you can tell your friends you stayed at the most expensive hotel suite in New York City.

I'm glad I caught this Tweet.
This was where I stayed my first night in Deadwood, way back in February of 1959. Little did I know, then, that my permanent home, while I lived in Deadwood, would be right behind the Franklin Hotel.

New at Target for Halloween: Pumpkin Spice M & M candies.
Does that sound good to you? When chocolate melts in your mouth but not in your hand it sounds good. Pumpkin Spice melting in my mouth but not in my hand???? Nope. Just doesn't cut it.
Ah, so!

Hair today. Gone tomorrow.
Did you know parsley tea used as a hair rinse can stop dandruff? #hair

Never fear. Your government has everything under control.
The government spent $213 million to upgrade the security system at the nations nuclear bomb-making facilities at Los Alamos, New Mexico and guess what. It doesn't work.
By the way, did you know those facilities sit on a fault line?
And, we lecture other countries about endangering their citizens with chemical weapons???
