Sara and Saul made it safely to Kate's house. YAY
I hear he had fun on the plane, and he did say "Hi Daddy" on the phone
which is better than "daddy-poo-poo"

My dad, the engineer, used to tell me many cool things. Most of these stuck with me.
Today on another site, they referenced the "Prince Rupert Drop" Which dad used to tell me about.
If glass is heated then cooled into a drop shape, the bulb is strong, yet break the tail, releasing the surface tension, and it explodes
YAY Dad.

Completely unrelated silliness, Ghost Ride the Whip!
Video for Mr. Fab's "Ghost Ride the Whip"
So here is a compilation of Ghost Rides
Leading to my favorite, and why I started this topic, Grandma Ghost Rides her Whip!

as a strict Jeffersonian Federalist, I'm so sick of the current administration trampling the rights of the states. It's time for a second revolution, a'la the revolution of 1800.
I heard the Montana Governor's discussion of Real ID cards on NPR,
it is just a brilliant interview

click the listen now link, he is so spot on
just brilliant

our BMW conversion/sidehack came home today. for the first time in 2 years, it is all one unit, and I got to take Sara & Tarzan around the neighborhood.
Still have not had a chance to ride/tune it and figure out all its special quirks, but I was comfortable enough to put them both in the boat, and spin around the neighborhood.
When we pulled into the driveway and shut off, Tarzan put his hands together in the proper sign, and said "more more more" I'll try to get some pix tomorrow
Tomorrow I'll go to the county park and ride my KTM 300, I cannot wait till he is old enough to come with me.

we got skype working, and have been able to have video calls to our folks (grandparents) that's cool
i have not written much, cause I cannot think. I am on dope to clear out the chest cough, it is not working fast enough, and i hack up like a 90 yr old emphysema smoker well, maybe it IS working, cause the drugs are supposed to help me clear out my lungs
Saul learned a cool trick.
if you put your hand or arm on daddy's throat, he will stick his tongue out and go "arrggghhhhhh"
i am trying to get him to stop choking me.
