Monday Meanderings - 3.25.2013

Walked out of Silver's Gym the other day and found these sitting near the doorway. The only thing I can figure out is that someone was trying to make off with some weights and they fell out of their pocket.


We were rudely wakened the other morning by what sounded like people banging on the roof with baseball bats. Turned out to be only a little hail. There doesn't appear to be any damage, but it sure was noisy!

We've done our spring planting for the year, combined with the annual transfer of the house plants to the patio. Looks a little bare inside at the moment. We reduced the tomato plantings by 1/3; only two plants this year. That is in keeping with our efforts to reduce our workload and heavy demands on our time.

Couldn't help but but think it ironical that a band named "Pillage and Plunder" had their gear stolen during SXSW.

March Madness -  in addition to mind-numbing around-the-clock basketball - has launched a bunch of new TV commercials. Sort of a mini-Super Bowl.

You can't make this stuff up, folks. According to a piece in this week's Chronicle, the latest in a series by the local Vortex Performing Arts center will be a multidisciplinary show performed in 17 tons of dirt, with performers singing, dancing and telling stories of the Earth.

And McDonald's has a dress code. Who knew?

Your plants would have been frozen here last night - and tonight if predictions hold true.
