Here’s a new — hypothetical, don’t do it for real — game. The rules are simple. On numbered roads, whether expressed in numbers or written out, the speed limit will be that road’s number. I live close to 1st Ave … Continue reading →

They took blood samples this morning and, because my Dad was an MD — thoracic (pronounced “thor-ass-sick”!) surgeon — I’m always curious about the “stuff” in examining rooms. As the tech drew my blood, I spotted this set of supply … Continue reading →

Multiple Shots in Slow Fire

Gallery
