Danny comes for his week-long visit tomorrow. He seemed to like Fantastic Four 2:electric boogaloo, except for the end.

Fun word – pogonotrophy (po-guh-NAW-truh-fee) noun; The growing of a beard. [From Greek pogon (beard) + -trophy (nourishment, growth).] (Pogonology is the study of beards and pogonotomy is a fancy word for shaving. ) Norma should look into that with her beard.

This has no relation to BHK’s shoe attitude. (youtube link)

The Agnostic’s Prayer:

Insofar as I may be heard by anything, which may or may not care what I say, I ask, if it matters, that you be forgiven for anything you may have done or failed to do which requires forgiveness. Conversely, if not forgiveness but something else may be required to ensure any possible benefit for which you may be eligible after the destruction of your body, I ask that this, whatever it may be, be granted or withheld, as the case may be, in such a manner as to insure your receiving said benefit. I ask this in my capacity as your elected intermediary between yourself and that which may not be yourself, but which may have an interest in the matter of your receiving as much as it is possible for you to receive of this thing, and which may in some way be influenced by this ceremony. Amen.

Day 2 of work went well… plenty to do and review. I can see some solid things ahead. The challenges are mostly in the documentation, and some of the the service providers we use. Our inside team and outer ring of contractors seem to be on the ball and on the same page.

Piccies of the outside

Getting a little commentary here and there about how well dressed I am at work. It’s flattering.
