Lost power MON 8 JUL. Got it back in fits and starts about 15 hours later. Which is more than a lot of town can say, including, critically, no few shops. Got Internet back only on FRI 12 JUL. (First site checked: MLB.com, of course.) Also on FRI, the family had to bid farewell to the bestest and goodest girl ever, after 17 years: Shadow is now in whatever celestial field awaits Very Good Dogs. (I see that on WED 10 JUL, whilst I was incommunic-avocado (Tacit Guacamole’d be a great name for a band), my alma mater, so-called (a real mutha these days, yes; but not a kindly one) was closed for a bomb threat. Hmph.) None of this was the best kickoff to my birthday. Still, it did happen all the same. As things calm down, I’ll be back to explain the opinions in Loper Bright; City of Grants Pass; Fischer; Corner Post; Trump; Jarkesy; and Moody v Netchoice to those who think they understand them. Keep those still dealing with the sequelae of Beryl in mind, and I’ll work on catching up.
