I'm not sure what it is

but I want one.

Fall is a great time of year

and not just because I love the cool breezes and changing colors.  In Kansas, fall is the time for county fairs, founders' days, and parades.
Today we celebrated the 50th annual Biblesta.  It features gospel (and sometimes country) music; selling hamburgers, funnel cakes, and homemade pies; a parade featuring Biblical verses and stories, and of course, the obligatory free "bean feed."
Jonah and the whale is a traditional favorite, complete with fins that move, legs that kick, and a blowhole that spouts water onto delighted children.

Conformist Watermelons


A round watermelon can take up a lot of room in a refrigerator and the usually round fruit often sits awkwardly on refrigerator shelves.

Smart Japanese Farmers have forced their watermelons
to grow into a square shape by inserting the melons into
square, tempered glass cases while the fruit
is still growing on the vine.

I'll be back with the first frost.

During the summer, I stay where I have air-conditioning, but I don't have net access.  So I won't really be around until Fall.

When I went into work this morning, the lady very happily told me that her dishwasher was finally fixed and I should put the dishes in it.  I opened it up to do so and was greeted by 3 frightened mice.  They quickly fled through the dishwasher's drain and I reported the incident to my client.  She replied casually, "Oh, yes, they come in through the drain.  My husband tells me I should set traps, but they always catch me!  I'll just have to make sure to take the dishes out as soon as they're washed."
Now I know for a fact that they are not prompt about removing the dishes, so I'm thinking, "Lady, you've got rodents running through the dang thing; your dishwasher is Not fixed!"
