‘Nuff Said

About the Vick dog-fighting/cruelty case: almost everything I might have to say, I said three years ago, with one addendum.
This is as clear an example as one might wish of what can happen when people are coddled and unceasingly told “you can do no wrong” simply because they have athletic ability.
In most cases, it merely leads to an inflated ego.
Sometimes, though, it creates a sociopath.

Golden Day

50 years ago today, my parents were married.
For the time being, celebrations are being kept to a minimum. We’ll have a big shin-dig once all of us can gather at the homestead in Santa Barbara.
Still, it’s a good day. The only thing that could make it better would be if Dad was still here to celebrate the occasion with us.
