Found this feller that must have been hanging with me all morning. Cute.

That's pretty cool! Flash finally came out as I was leaving for work.

Turns out it was an out of state plate with the same license plate #.

Speaking of Austin, I got a bill from the Central Texas Regional Mobility Authority (i.e. Austin toll billing agency) for driving on a toll road in Austin in March. I certainly do not remember driving to Austin so either someone is stealing and taking my "fancy" 2004 Honda Accord for a joyride Austin or I have been sleepdriving (and sleep filling up the gas tank). Weird. I hope I don't find any scorpions in the backseat.

That is utterly and completely fucked up. I forgot your bicep is the size of my thigh. What the hell did you do when you saw it on your arm and after you took the time to move around and take a picture of it? Fuck, that is fucked up.

Nice job saving a life! Not so convinced those modalities help pain, but have a bunch of patients who feel they do. This weekend, got a new pet, a box turtle. A neighbor had been trying to donate him to us since our dogs died and his two daughters grew up and left the house. The kids named him Flash because in the back yard he's so fast. I've seen him once since we got him. Here he is, look closely under the Spanish moss...

Just finished the last two episodes. A brilliant ending to an absolutely brilliant show. Mad Men certainly isn't for everyone, but this really is one of televisions masterpieces. Bravo, Matthew Weiner.

You should be careful if you get an email regarding unpaid tolls. I've gotten a few that turned out to be scams. Luckily I checked online before did anything about it. https://www.thetollroads.com/communications/e-zpass-phishing-email.php

Dew eet.

No, I am waiting to speak to an agent. I think I can request a picture of the plate.

You don't get pictures with those? We get pictures around here -- usually a long shot, a closeup of the plate, and a closeup of the driver. I'm usually grumpy in that last one.

I was just thankful it decided to hitch a ride on the outside of my shirt. Took a couple of flicks to get it off then gave it the good old boot stomp. Also glad it wasn't a centipede.

Was on my arm and it was definitely alive. I only noticed it when I raised my arm to close a cabinet in the kitchen. Also heard that it's inversely proportional to tail size. It was a striped bark scorpion which is all I have seen around here. Guess I'm going to shake my cloths out from now on.

Oh yeah. Pretty common around these parts since it is very rocky. Other side of town where there is no limestone and has good top soil is scorpion free.

Larry, I have no scientific evidence of any of those really working on the long haul, however hypnosis might help to get you going by better controlling your pain. You're a lucky man, you're alive, your daughter is too, and you should be able to enjoy life completely.

Wrong. I drove the Triple Nickel and it was white knuckle, adrenaline pumping, sometimes almost crapping your pants fun. Like 60 MPH blind brows where you almost get air and then finding out you have a 90 degree 20 MPH corner at the bottom. I know this link is for motorcycles but just as fun in a decent car. http://www.motorcycleroads.com/75/440/Ohio/The-Triple-Nickle---Route-555.html And then I can show you about 60 miles of really fun stuff along the Ohio river in south western Indiana. You may not think these are places for sports car roads, but you are wrong.
