Good-Bye March!
There was 3 feet of snow in front of the porch (where it was piled from shoveling
snow off the bricks), but it's time for bulbs to emerge,
so I shoveled a lot of it off. Upper forties and rain should lessen the rest.

DeleteIt appears that all of these links are videos. I'm sorry, but I simply don't have the patience to video. I've been a print person all my life.
DeleteCalifornia police union executive charged with attempting to import opioids [Click] “Many Americans incorrectly believe that most fentanyl is being smuggled into the United States by migrants in unauthorized border crossings, a talking point of Republican politicians like Ron DeSantis.” That one sure takes the cake.
ReplyDelete^^^ Alan
DeleteI've never nderstood why fentanyl has to be imported. Should be easy enough to make here. I happen to know that it is one the the things involved in euthanasia of research lab animals.
DeleteFor illicit dealers in opiates the profits and ease of distribution are far greater than for heroin. Illicit labs in China manufacture custom variants for very economical prices.

California to Require Half of All Trucks [sold in 1935] Be Electric [Click] Sounds like a possible opening for BYD, I think; recently they made it clear that they did not plan to enter the auto market in the US.
ReplyDelete——Alan
OOPS! "1935" should read "2035". Not sure if it was a Freudian slip on my part, or computerized auto-incorrect.

Beautiful day today, puffy white clouds in a blue sky, with a barely perceptible breeze and warmer. (It was a mistake to wear a flannel shirt when we went for our walk this afternoon.) As the day progressed we could see the snow on the mountain tops better and better.

O0h my! Gag Donald Trump? I don't thing so.

Not sure even that would work.
DeleteHere’s a pretty good article about the Lake Tulare Basin flooding, south of here. [Click] On the map look north to find the big dot locating Fresno. There is a highway going north of there across a river (the San Joaquin), and another going northwest across the same river. Our house is about two thirds of the way (going west) between those two river crossings, overlooking the river.
