Senator from SD has had a stroke! Oh, no! If he dies, the governor, who is a Republican, can appoint a Republican sympathizer--and reset the balance in the Senate to 50-50. Which means that Cheney is back in the mix. Oh, no!

Pray for the senator's recovery! We don't need more flailing in DC.

Didn't make it out for a walk today. Was too dreary in the morning and it only cleared for a brief period in the afternoon. By then, I was ready for my life force exercises. Hopefully, tomorrow will bring some clearer skies--so I can walk my walk.

Coming down to the finish on the Goodall book. Last few chapters have not been as compelling as the earlier ones, but maybe it will end with a bang. Last few chapters dealt with her shift into the role of an activist on the behalf of the animals--in zoos and in research facilities. Material is now up to about the mid 90's. I should complete my read of it tomorrow. It's quite a story--her life and adventures!
