What Are You Thinking Of Right Now?

OTOH, the Easter story is pretty weird. Bunnies are cool. Usually.
 
OTOH Devo played the Coffeehouse at UC Davis, circa 1980. $1.75 tix. Movie and a short show. Interview with KDVS. Weird dudes.

Saw them twice in their heyday and they were manic.

Saw them a few years back and they were still good just not as manic.

Cocaine might have been involved back in the day! :laughing
 
Oh, Elfin and I are going to colour eggs this morning
 
the foxes are screaming. it’s an unnerving sound. in other news, one of the hummers settled in for the night on the table on the deck. am thinking - the ‘do not disturb’ sign is ‘implied’ rather than ‘out’.
 
Back in Cleveland for a week now. Spent all day pressure washing my patio and outside furniture, no rain forecasted for a week. Now getting .5” of snow this morning. Putting out mulch on Wednesday, maybe we will get a blizzard.
 
Because of that earthquake last week, I was thinking about the San Andreas fault. So now I know the actual fault is, well, that red line is only 50 feet away. Would you be scared?

Roger Creek fault is 20 feet over our back fence.

We have had our 1950s house earthquake retrofitted and also have earthquake insurance.

She assures me, the house and its foundation would be intact even if it did slide down that 60 foot ravine

I am thinking about playing softball when I was a young adult.

A Team serious level
Co Ed team.
Work team
SF buddies team (in SF)

4 nights a week. Tournaments here and there and some how with all the racing and injuries and raising kids it all happened.

Funny how the old man memory casts aside the crap parts and composes a damn nice picture.
 
That triggered a funny memory about softball for me. In winter of 1984 I was at Fort Benning in Georgia for my Infantry Officers Basic Course and the platoon of lieutenants I was in decided to put together a softball team to pay against the posts other teams. Turned out we were pretty good and beat most of the posts teams. We ultimately got challenged by the Columbus Georgia's best team which wasn't a military team. the bet was a keg of beer, whoever lost paid for the keg. Well the game started close to evening but still in daylight but as the game wore on the light got dimmer. We couldn't turn on the lights. So in the twilight the lieutenants started hitting better and catching balls better than the local champions. They were used to playing under bright lights we were used to crawling around in the under brush with no lights. That softball looked like a moon in the night sky to us. We won the keg but some where in the ensuing party it disappeared.

I wasn't a great player; decent on defense but no slugger. Because the field I played on as a kid had no right field I was a pull hitter. I could prety reliably pop over the short stop in to left field.
