Going on the road again tomarrow. Up to Anderson, SC so the wife can visit with her mom for a couple days, and deliver some stuff to her. Then, up to Raliegh area, for Thanksgiving, to visit with daughter, her 7 and 12 year olds (and husband). Will be gruelling, but good to get away. Hope it doesn't rain too much - supposed to rain in Atlanta on Sunday, but we should be through there by noon (to Anderson).

This is a boring blog entry, I am sure. See that Oprah is quitting her show ! (horrors!). She should get by well enough, though, with her 20 or so Billion $$$, I think. She is starting her own cable network, so maybe she'll show up there as a news anchor. Who knows. She was good with Sarah Palin the other day, but too easy on her, I think. Sarah seems like a likeable, down to earth person, but not a great intellect. And some of the far-right ideas that come out of her mouth are pretty reactionary.

These pictures are what you would call "juxtiposed". They have little, if anything, to do with each other. I've been listening lately to a 2008 live show of The Who, who sound as great as ever. Pete's kid plays bass, and Zack Starkey (Ringo's boy, of course), plays drums. As good as ever. Makes me a little wistful, however, listening to them - how long can they keep it up? Bottom pic is Stan and Ollie, of course. They have achieved a kind of imortality. Still crack me up when I watch them - Stan drives Ollie nuts, but they still love each other. What a riot.
