Oh, the Humanity . . .
First off, I want to thank everyone for the many Happy Anniversary wishes. They are much appreciated.
Well, according to the many photos I saw around the net, there was a spectacular ‘blood moon’ last night, but I’ll have to take their word for it. We didn’t see it here, in fact it was so overcast that we didn’t even see the moon at all. Bummer.
Of course we’ve been fooled before, but it looks like Fall has crept back in and Summer has slunk away . . . again. Our temps are back in the low to mid 80’s with nights in the mid 60’s, although we do have some 50’s coming up it looks like.
We did have a forecast of Scattered Thunderstorms for today and tomorrow. But today pretty much fizzled out with only a few drops here and there, and just a lot of dark clouds. So we’ll see how tomorrow goes. It would be nice for another light rain to settle the dust again, though.
I’m not sure if my WordPress blog thinks that I’m no longer human, or that I’ve been replaced by an cyborg, or maybe it just wants to be sure that I can do 2nd grade math. Of course with drones delivering packages, self-driving cars, and who knows what else, any thing is possible, I guess.
But a couple of days ago, when I logged into the blog so that I could upload a new post, after I entered my email and password, I got this:
Prove Your Humanity: 7 + 9 =
and then a box to enter the answer.
I guess this is supposed to be like one of the irritating CAPTCHA things used to defeat robot scripts,
and it’s probably easier since I’m better at adding two single digit numbers together than figuring out what some of those twisted letters really are. It seems like I never get one right on the first try.
But maybe this will cut down on all the Failed Login Attempts I get from Russia and Eastern Europe. We’ll see.
A lot of you have purchased my favorite new flashlight,
KJL Cree LED 900 lumens Flashlight
and it seems like everyone is as enamored as I am. One person even bought ten. (Thanks, Marty). It’s really amazing how much light this thing puts out. The other night it was really humid with a lot of fog in the air, and I was able make a solid white beam up in the sky. Hey, my own Bat Signal!
Wrapping up with a Landon sighting, he and his parents went to see Hotel Transylvania 2 this weekend.
Looks like he’s all ready with his kid’s snack box (popcorn, candy, and a drink) and his 3D glasses.

Thought for the Day:
Everyone thinks this photo is so cute, like maybe he’s asking, “Did you lose a kitten?”
Knowing raccoons, I think he’s saying, “Please, could you put some ketchup on this?”
But then that’s just me.
FYI – It’s photo shopped.
