🗾 like drops of water

 🗾 oh. you'd have to have watched ' Last Samurai ' ala Tom Cruise

day is gray. and cool ish [ went to grab the paper off the stoop ]

⛽ are falling

 ⛽ well, today for sure. The guess is gas will drop approx 30 cents a gallon to day [ 8 cents / L ]

A cool morning. The paper arrived, just now
oh, yeah. more bad news

ala DonMcLean. " bad news on the door step
                               I can't take much more of this "

" I couldn't take one more step "
when I heard about his widowed bride ........
something struck me deep inside

the day the music died !

  🏩 Septimus the 19 th

fall ish weather continues
hope that you're feeling better or at least on the road to feeling well

lighter fare : from the CBC online, titled ' Girl Math '

" But the girl math trend can take rationalizing spending to a new level.

"We have already earned $150," says TikTok creator vialsss after finding a MacBook, regularly priced at $1,450, on sale for $1,300 in a video with the hashtag #girlmath. 

The girl math rationale here is that by finding the item on sale, the $150 price difference is earned money.

been there, done that [ at least subconsciously ]

🟑☪

 🟑☪ ... the stars at night
                     are big and bright .......

Thus, we arrive at the eighteenth of Septimus Severus [ or some such ]

last night, Sunday, is murder mystery night on PBS.       three hours of ' Professor T ' followed by ' Unforgotten ' and ' Van derValk '.
we sat there and wallowed in ' people killing people '

the lightest [ or least guesome ] is Professor ... 

Professor Tempest is a walking testament to how dysfunctional a person can be and still get by. Naturally, that ' getting by ' bit is highly debatable. This go round, we see revealed that his perpetual ' daymare and nightime too ! ' is a composite image - part true and part invented - subconsciously.

Alert !

no not serious but .... On YouTube, I'm watching tugboats. Live aboard, work boat or cruising. 
Why ???? dunno

🚈 darkly through a glass

 🚈 [ and don't know the rest ]

from Google search :

To see “through a glass” — a mirror — “darkly” is to have an obscure or imperfect vision of reality. The expression comes from the writings of the Apostle Paul; he explains that we do not now see clearly, but at the end of time, we will do so.

can't tell if this good or bad ...... ?????

cruised through the CBC online ...
you better be satisfied w/ moderate weather for the next four days .....
b/c all else is - well, crap

the ' Rant is On ' is a podcast from Lewis Black. Satirical and he can say ' I didn't make this stuff up ... its in print or on screen '
today.
An AI written travelogue, under tourist attractions, reminds  hungry visitors that the  ' Ottawa Food Bank is open today ' 

Further, Lewis reads an article from North Carolina. At a town meeting on the suitability of a solar farm for the region, people stood up and expressed sentiments that a solar farm will use up too much sun that should go to crops

Lewis Black ' Rant ....  ' is reminiscent of the stage monologues of Will Rogers. WR stood on the dais and read articles from the day s newspaper. 
to wit  ' Congress debates a bill to provide food for the needy .......
" hold the phone, the sentiment is, that such a bill would set a bad precedent ....... "

famous saying. you don't need to make jokes about congress
congress is the joke

 

🚇 leave your ......

 🚇 ..... worries on the doorstep
yes ! the sunny side of the street ........
