Friday

Purple train, blue dusk... / busy week, productive week, / the weekend awaits!

Old Friend on Train...

Guess who I ran into on the train this morning? Lynn!

I get a call @ 6:05 am on my cell phone on my way to the train station. It's Chuck, Lynn's husband. They were in the area this week and Chuck told me to look for Lynn on the train. And yes, I did kick her butt in our morning Metro Paper Su doku race :-)

The Draco Tavern


I liked this book, The Draco Tavern. It was a collection of short stories, or vingettes, all (or mostly all) taking place inside the Tavern at the Spaceport that was established in Siberia by aliens. Each story was pretty much self contained, like most sitcom episodes are.

Reading these stories was kind of like watching episodes of Cheers, only they were Sci-Fi and not so much Comedy.

Rick Schumann, the bartender, is the only recurring character in all the stories. He is pretty much the main thread throughout all the stories.

'Tis The Season

The display is up! / The holidays are here in / South Station, Hooray!
