Road noise

Just when I’ve seen it all?
Guy in front of me, at the security checkpoint, he’s wrangling an oversized carry-on, an over-stuffed laptop case, and making deals on a cell phone while waiting in line. As he unlimbers the laptop, pulling keys and change out of his pocket, he slips a pair of booties over his socks, to pass through security. Either a true road-victim, or maybe, just obnoxious-obsessive-complusive type. Take all kinds. I was barefoot.

Misc. Quotations

(these three are from the King James Version)
“These ye shall eat, of all that are in the waters: all that have fins and scales shall ye eat:”
Deuteronomy 14:9

“and ye shall know the truth, and the truth will make you free”
John 8:32

“Follow me and I will make you fishers of men.”
Matthew 4:19

I have no idea what I was thinking about.

“Honest plain words best pierce the ear of grief.”
Shakespeare’s Love’s Labour’s Lost (V.ii.737)

Engineering:
The long and the ugly.

Breakfast tacos:
At the airport? $3.50 each. East Austin? $0.90, and the coffee shop on the way to the bus stop? Halfway point: $1.75. I wasn’t going to get one, but the delivery was made while I was standing at the counter. How can I refuse?

Myth & History:
Always up for conjecture?
