Joanne imagines Sparky as a superhero, so that got me thinking about his skills. Based on Warhammer skills.

My good friend and colleague, Chris Boch, recently posted on his blog about the naive views of the US Secretary of Energy, Chris Wright. I know something about that.
Early in my teaching career, I attended a summer workshop at the Princeton Plasma Physics Lab. The physicist in charge, Andrew Zwicker, is the guy on the left wearing sandals.
Police said up to 150,000 people were in London on Saturday for the “Unite the Kingdom” rally
With so much going on in the US, it’s easy to lose track of events in other countries. The British are pissed off enough about something to have this gigantic rally. I thought everything was going well in the UK. The government had solved all their problems, and had the resources to send five policemen to arrest one popular comedian for posting three lame jokes on X.
Fairview Park neighbors outraged by city council president’s comments after death of Charlie Kirk.
Ohio suburbs are boring. We don’t expect a city council president to be a far Left extremist.
Not really, the orphanage took care of that, but it’s still uncomfortable sitting next to Sparky on the couch, trying to watch a show, while he is lapping at his undercarriage.
Whatever can happen, will happen, if you wait long enough.
That is an operating principle in modern physics. There is a 1 in 6000 chance that a nickel dropped on to a table top, will rest on the edge of the coin. If you dropped a nickel every 10 seconds, within 17 hours, you’d expect a nickel to land on the edge. It’s a very unlikely event, but it will happen.
This is a short clip of our afternoon walk. Sparky is happy to be outside and checking on whatever it is that he checks on. Sparky shows no sign of discomfort. I’m still concerned.
As soon as the camera picked up the guy, it was obvious. With the aux driveway paved and the regular driveway unimproved, Amazon is delivering to my back deck. That might be better than the front door.
Porch thieves aren’t a problem, but packages are less obvious on the back deck. Packages on the deck will be more obvious to me, so my stuff won’t be sitting outside for a couple of days. For the drivers, this is quick and easy.
It took until 8:30 pm for Sparky to do more than sleep. When he lifted his head to look around, I told him about the rice and brisket gravy in his bowl. After he ate that, he felt pretty good.
