My Horoscope for the Day!
“Your obsessive qualities are on display today -- and they make you look even better than usual! It's a good time for you to step up and see if you can get your colleagues to follow your lead.”
Perhaps I am a bit dense, but I really have no idea what it means. I’m not sure I appreciate the “obsessive qualities”, but I am happy they make me “look even better than usual!”
I do have this picture in my mind of leading my co-workers in a conga line through the hotel, but that may be a minor misinterpretation of the horoscope.
Party in Hood River!

Dear Alaska, Part II
It is now 8:45PM. You are five hours and forty-five minutes late in returning our warm weather. We are not pleased.
I don’t know if you are aware or not, but the Oregon National Guard has been working on a mini-nuclear device that they had planned on testing on the USC campus. Don’t make us change the test-site to downtown Anchorage. You suffer enough.
Just return our warm weather by Noon tomorrow and we’ll call it no harm; no foul.
After that, I can’t vouch for your safety.
Do it for the children.

Dear Alaska
Right now, it is warmer in Anchorage, Alaska than it is in Hood River, Oregon.
I do not mean to disparage the fine residents of Alaska who gave us that beloved whack-job, Sarah Palin, but I think I speak for all Oregonians when I say, “Give us back the warm weather you stole from us, you Fahrenheit nabbing freaks!”
Thank you. We’ll expect delivery by 3:00PM.

A Question of Procedure.
It is conventional wisdom in the Hood River Valley that you don’t plant your garden until after the snows leave Mt. Defiance.
It snowed on Mt. Defiance last night.
Does that mean I should de-plant A.G. and Patti La and bring them inside?
