Greetings from the Right Coast.

After spending eight-plus hours in airports and planes, SaraRules and I made it into RDU.  Kris (Sib-2) picked us up and brought us to my parents’ house. Everyone is doing well. Hanging out with the family was quiet and relatively low-key, which was nice.

This morning involved sleeping in, relatively speaking. Granted, there was a two-hour offset, but sleeping in is sleeping in. It’s a little grey/overcast, but that’s okay — there’s a lot of green around. That’s one of the things that I miss out west. (Yes, there are trees, but the “green” part of the (very short) Spring season soon gives way to more brown tones as the heat of Summer sets in.)

I’m not sure what the afternoon and evening hold.  I’m going to try and get hold of a couple of the usual suspects and see about getting together for lunch or dinner… or something.

Stray Toasters

• After Explaining a Provocative Remark, Paul Makes Another
• Play Pac-Man on Google Homepage
  • Q&A: Pac-Man Creator Reflects on 30 Years of Dot-Eating
• Street pianos come to NYC
• Vatican calls synthetic cell creation ‘interesting’
• AT&T to increase early termination fees to $325
• The 22-megapixel MacBook Pro

And that’s a wrap.
Time to find some trouble to get into…

Namaste.
