Happy Thursday or as I like to say, Happy Newspaper Carrier Day

Good morning world

We have four independent free local newspapers here, which we refer to collectively as "the local paper" as in "did you see the story in the local paper about the new park opening this weekend?" There's also a paid newspaper and the Miami newspaper which some folks get for some reason, but those aren't 'the local paper' to us down here. Definitely have to wash your hands after reading the locals.

The triptych could be a problem. Not so much Hanna but that Ike could be a serious troublemaker if it can hold onto or rebuild its Cat 4 strength as it gets closer to us. We'll know more by the weekend but the track looks like it's headed this way.

Mostly just a usual work day here, with plans to stand on a scale with a cellphone camera in my hand later this morning after I have some nice warm raspberry pastry to go with my hot coffee.

Wishing a good day to those who'd prefer it that way.
