only while on your bike or around the office too? How dangerous is a place where the motion sensors don't pick up anything for an hour at a time?

I have decided to start wearing my bike helmet again. Lesson learned the hard way.

That's funny AO. We have those sensors too. They use them on the weekends. So, if you're working on a weekend you have to stand up every half-hour or so and wave your hands.

excess sunlight? it needs sun, yes.
the tamarind says seedless on the package but the first tablespoon had 4 seeds in it.

The funny part being the motion sensor uses more energy than it saves.
TAOD: that purple flower plant - does it need excess sunlight? how often should it be watered?

The light in my office is motion activated. Sometimes it shuts off on me.

It has been completed, even after watching that guy go through the fence and shed. He could not deter me.

ro2, are you scratching that off your list, or checking it off?
Does #14 now get promoted to #13?

Since no one in our house plays basketball, it will not be missed. Though oddly enough, we are thinking about a free-standing hoop.
AO, Nov 4-7. Nov 5 I have a fly-in-fly out meeting in Minneapolis, so I thought I'd hang around a little longer. Too bad the Twins will have finished winning the World Series by then. Oct 9-11 we are in Pocatello for a marching band competition.
And Chewie's first jump onto the new bed was definitely to the original height, but she caught on quickly. She can make it.

Nice job on the bed Frank. The house looks good too.

Cool stuff, Doughers. Can Chewy still jump on that bed?
Taod, when will you be in Minnesota. I'll be up there Oct. 9-11 for a frisbee tournament.
Tracy if you get a chance can you give me the name of that music book you have. Thanks,

i believe 5:06 also qualifies as "sick", but I'm not an expert.

Also, I have an attempted layout D at 2.09 but instead cause a foul. My mark in 2.11 allows Lori to get the D.
I threw a hammer and a push-pass that weekend, none of which was caught on film. Sectionals are this weekend in Chicago.

VMO, I'm on 10 hrs mandatory OT, so I feel your pain.
Anyway, I got away Thursday and Friday for the NSPE conference. Nice technical presentation of the North Shore Connector and then a tour afterwards. Tomorrow I get to tour the Carrie Furnace. Cool beans!
Also, I'm not sure about October, we will see. Edgardo's Grandma is not doing well, so he may be making a quick trip to Chile. Nothing is planned yet.
Mom, still not sure about China. Now they are asking for resumes to review and someone said they rejected a presenter last time for having less than 5 years experience in nuclear. I would have thought they cleared all that up before they told us we're going, but clearly they didn't. I will keep you posted.

ESSODSTSNS - good news / bad news. I don't have to go to the meeting in PA next week so I already feel like I just gained back 2 days of me time. Sorry I don't get to come visit you. I am going to need a vacation soon so we should plan something in Oct.

OK, but can we just skip to the cheesecake?
We'll be sans Frankie as the high schooler has an important party to attend.

Doughers up for Chinese takeout tonight? I made my first attempt at a cheesecake last night, and have some strawberries defrosting in the fridge...
