Been a while since I’ve been here, even though this was where I was introduced to sushi.

It’s National Book Week. Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 56, and copy the fifth sentence as your status. Do not name the book. Copy the rules as part of your post.
(My books are mostly in various electronic devices, not on dead trees, so I’m doing this with the book I’m currently reading as opposed to a random book that happens to be on my phone right now. Pagination tends to vary between devices and is almost certainly different from a dead-tree edition.)

Picking up a little more now, but the lines are still short. Just one token left…will probably grab lunch and then head toward the airport after that.

47 new beers between yesterday and the day before. At three-ounce pours for each, that’s the better part of a 12-pack of varying styles and strengths. Will get a few more in this afternoon before I’m due at the airport.The Beer List

Don’t think it can’t happen here. There’s one party that keeps jamming the gears in our economy’s transmission with its harebrained schemes such as “cash for clunkers” and their so-called “Affordable Care Act” that turned out to be anything but affordable. Voting for Trump? For Johnson? For someone I’ve not heard of? As long as it’s not Monica Lewinsky’s ex-boyfriend’s wife, it’s all good. #neverhillary
