Remember those backwater years of James Bond movies when the caricature known as Roger Moore kept the franchise going? Nuff sed.
Imagine owning a cockatiel (or rather, it owning you) for 21 years, the bird turning little cardboard boxes into homes complete with chewed-out windows to stare at you.
Congrats to all the runners - the DNFs, winners and finishers - who ran the Rocket City Marathon course today; especially the ones who overcame personal adversity - pain, injury, etc. Relatively warm for this time of year just before the cold and rain/snow sweep through.
Good to see familiar faces in the Holiday Inn, including Abdul and other hotel employees, Kris and the ham radio operators/comm team/timekeepers, Virginia College students, emergency/police personnel and fellow food volunteers led by Jim.
Thanks to Publix, Brueggers, Dole and Atlanta Bread Company; runners' support/family; the person who said he's going to play Santa Claus early and give some of the leftover food to random homeless people.
Checked the Book of the Future this afternoon - a new forecast is almost ready for broadcast. Even I, as jaded as I am right now, can't believe what's going to happen next. Surprised? No. Basically amazed.
Oh, and a shoutout to UT.
