My New Deck
Done! Two days of hard work in 90 degree weather - the thermometer in my backyard reached past 110 at noon - and our deck is complete! It was a team effort, but major thanks go to my friend Eric. We agree on almost nothing in the world but we've been friends since '93, and we have an annoying habit of helping each out when the help is needed most (though I'll admit his skillset is more in demand). Thanks bruh!

The Last Walk to School Together For the Younger Trio
With LuLu graduating the night before, but going to school the next day for a class trip, a milestone:
the last day this trio of Team Slap would ever walk together to school.

A Wonderful, Wonderful Dish
Grilled talapia tacos with marinated red cabbage and fresh avocado slices. Best meal here at El Fuego EVER.

Time Lash
Time Lash gets a lot of bad press in the Whoverse, but I liked it. Sure, it had the single most embarrassing set in Who history (see pic) and the inclusion of HG Wells was both pointless and silly. But other than that, Mrs Lincoln said the play was fine.
Good Hearts :)
Super proud of Lisa, Lu, Smiley, and Junie, all of whom answered a last minute request for help and spent the evening working at the local soup kitchen.

Congrats Scooter Gennett!
Former Brewer/current Red Scooter Gennett tied a major league record today, blasting 4 home runs and knocking in 10 RBI!
The Two Doctors
Troughton was underutilized, but otherwise a strong script and an entertaining episode. But the level of violence was questionable for Who, with the constant threats to eat humans, the murder of a secondary character, and the Doctor himself cavalierly killing a foe.

The Gulf Crisis
Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Bahrain, and the UAE have cut ties with Quatar. This is important. Qatar stands accused of backing ISIS, and its neighbors are not happy.
LOL
Outside Little Caeser's was a young woman holding a sign that said "deaf and homeless. Please help." As i was walking by her a car honked loudly and her head snapped to the side to look 😂 lol
The Marshall Plan
This is also the 70th anniversary of George Marshall unveiling the Marshall Plan during a commencement speech at Harvard.
