I began watching my meteorology lectures from the teaching company. You think you know something until you see someone who really understands explain it. By the end of the remaining 22 lectures I may even be able to teach my students something in the fall.
Mr. B is getting a bath today at Dr. Jones' vet clinic. I guessed his weight and I was exactly right; 87 pounds. He is also getting tested for heartworm. I hope he gets to come home soon. He looked so sad and pitiful in the car when he realized where he was going this morning. It will be several days before he gets to smelling good again. Nothing like that wonderful dog smell to make one happy.
My favorite war movie is "A Bridge Too Far" that was made back in the 1970's. Everyone and their cat are in that movie: Robert Redford, Michael Caine, James Caan, Anthony Hopkins, etc. It is the story of a huge airborne mission into occupied Holland in the Fall of 1944. The mission failed. I had been reading several military history books (The Crimean War, WWI and WWII) and so I thought I would try reading the story behind my favorite war movie. The book is excellent and I am pleased to say the movie was accurate.
