This was an unintentional mid-20th century post

Song of the day, which was on the radio when I cranked the car this morning:

And that tune will stick with you in a delightful way.

Saw this on the drive home …

That is an awesome, bipartisan, bumper sticker.

I have Eisenhower buttons, but sadly no Truman examples. You can see more of my campaign buttons here.

Have a look at my Friday

Right away you can tell this is a beautiful campus. I’ve seen my fair of attractive ones, but Indiana’s is one handsome place. It is hard to pick the best spot because there are many strong candidates. Today, however, this is my favorite spot on campus:

That’s a little stand of trees right next to our building, in Dunn Meadow. The picture itself is also presently the emergency backup version of the front page of my site.

Oh yes, my site. Have I told you about the page? This week I’ve redesigned it entirely. Give it a look, won’t you?

If you’re on a real browser you’ll see a video. If you’re viewing it on your phone or pad, you’ll see the above picture as the background. What I like most about it is that I can change it easily and regularly. So, more visual, more video.

This evening, the work continues in my home office. This project will never get done. I have a good helper, though:

She might also be why the work goes slowly.

On the road

Saw this flier today. Well sure, I thought to myself:

I must say this: there are no lame cat fliers full of typos all over the bulletin boards here. That, in its own way, is just another small relief.

We are traveling this weekend, to Georgia. For a wedding. A wedding in the Deep South in the fall on a Saturday. Georgia and Tennessee are playing in a rivalry game. I don’t care about either team, of course, but given the locale of the wedding, it might come up among the many lovely guests.

Here’s my rule: If you think enough of me to invite me to your wedding, and it is on a fall Saturday, I will attend if I can. No football game would get in the way of that. I will also make fun of you about it throughout your wedded bliss.

So that’s what we’ll be doing tomorrow, which meant traveling today. Which meant the road, which meant dinner on the road which meant, in Nashville, Tennessee:

And today is Friday which means Friday is Pie Day:

Interesting tidbit, meanwhile, about Bloomington: You can’t get pie anywhere.
