The temp here this Saturday morning is a cool 62°. There is an 11 MPH wind from the west. The horizon to the west is a dark blue under light gray clouds. We have had light rain showers most of the morning. Visibility is reported to be 11 miles.
If you care, like Jens, half of Louisiana and all of Quebec also seem to, the French election is in the end game phase. IMHO it would not be good for either Denmark or the US if there is a divided France. Now it is claimed by one candidate that his campaign has been hacked. Possibly by Russia.
Speaking of Jens/MG, I am remiss for not mentioning the unusually poetic method he used to inform us of the skydiver's reason to reconsider his choice of hobbies. Godfrey Daniels! That is a very fine avatar Jens. Even when it "ain't a fit night out for man or beast" (wait for the bucket of poly-petal snow in the face) that will bring a smile to those who recognize it. For those who do not recognize the man playing Mr. Mcawber, they should rush to their roll-top desk that only they know the secret of finding anything in and pull out their dog-eared copy of "Famous Comedians of Stage and Film of the First Half of the 20th Century" by Woz E. Fonni . Great idea Jens considering your long time appreciation of the undisputed talent of W. C. Fields. It always seems to surprise people when I tell them Fields was also a pool shark. Watch him handle that crooked cue or doing some amazing shots. They are not done by a stand-in expert. Fields was a master of double takes, spit takes and sight gags. Well done Jens.
