I could write Old Yeller stories until (sob) Old Yeller comes back to life as maybe it could still happen, right?  Sure, I could do that ... but you still wouldn't read them.  Yah ... that's nice ... but I want blood sacrifice.  I want gore.  I want carnage.

Actually I don't want carnage and I don't write to cater to it either.  I have various opinions on things and maybe those opinions make people want to give me a haircut with an ice pick ... but it's still not my purpose to write something for the sole purpose of aggravating someone.

Side-note:  Yevette cut my hair and now I have these little fucking wings so I'm somewhere between Kim Jong Un and the Flying Nun.  (Relax, she thought it was funny or it wouldn't be up here)


The title list above shows the Greatest Hits from the last week.  The Yosemite articles are specifically informative but all of the others are specifically opinionated items.  There's no way I can know if you read them because you agree or you do it because you like to watch a geek biting the head off a chicken but so it goes.

Just as with the ride from Greece, this is very much a view-out-the-windows of what goes past wherever I am and likely I more than you would prefer it be rather less political but this is the commercial before the springboard to Germany.  To wrap this story without Germany would be so wrong even the Bush family wouldn't do it.  Well, they would but I wouldn't ... if I can possibly help it.

Cincinnati is not at all forgotten but it's all strategy and tactics as I have not forgotten Saving the 2006 Mac Pro either.  Fortunately the latter doesn't cost anything as the money is already spent.  Now that things seem cleared for the new used iMac, I can go forward with wrecking other systems again.  Yevette will likely go back to California so it would be good if before she goes she can get a taste of what her machine will be able to do.

So, I guess I need to find some car crashes or something.  I do know there was a serious Amtrak train crash last night and it looked like the Accela.  It's not a high-speed train but it's quicker than most US trains and at least five people were killed.  That got me thinking why I do not hear of train crashes from Japan or Europe.  Is it that I don't hear of them or they don't happen.

The US is so pre-Cambrian in its railroad system and the pitch from those who don't want to do it is invariably the cost is too great because the distances are too far.  Here's a tip on that, Dagwood:  of course the distances are too far; that's why we build train tracks, isn't it.
