It&#8217;s for Poseidon, who is always trying to get into my home office and cause trouble. The sign is meant to keep him out. That&#8217;s why it is posted at cat-eye level. It does not. <\/p>\n<p>We have a debate about whether he can read the sign, or if the verbiage is too sophisticated. He&#8217;s obviously just ignoring the sign. Phoebe can come into my office occasionally, because Phoebe is a good girl.<\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kennysmith.org\/blog\/banners\/bannercapers.jpg\"><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a talk show from last night. They talked about sports. Sports are what they talked about. Baseball, and it&#8217;s 4,725 post season teams, deserve attention, and you can get most of it right here:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/pb0jgKkbr6k\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>And another set of students were hard at work in the studio this morning. They had a great guest and a fun time and things went smoothly for them. And someone has finally added a calendar feature to their programming: <\/p>\n<p><center><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Surprising amount of things going on around here considering the subdued nature of event scheduling.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/julianna_merry?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@julianna_merry<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MichaelSkiles13?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@michaelskiles13<\/a> and the whole <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BtownBfastClub?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@btownbfastclub<\/a> crew have the events calendar on on point. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/jK4HT4xs6d\">pic.twitter.com\/jK4HT4xs6d<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Kenny Smith (@kennysmith) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/kennysmith\/status\/1312051635393265664?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 2, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/center><\/p>\n<p>After the show was over and we wiped down all of the consoles and the cameras and everything else everyone touched, they all went about their days, going &#8230; wherever they all go. I went to my office and whiled away the day worrying over a To Do List.<\/p>\n<p>I think I cut it down to something manageable for next week. I have an important letter of recommendation to write and dealing with a bunch of file transfers. And about a half dozen meetings already on the books, and some voiceovers to work through and some audio editing to tend to and whatever other things that haven&#8217;t appeared yet &#8230; It&#8217;s nice to know a little about what&#8217;s in store next week, is what I&#8217;m saying.<\/p>\n<p>Take this weekend, for example. It&#8217;s gray and damp and cool this evening and so there wasn&#8217;t much to that. There&#8217;ll be lunch and a bike ride tomorrow and then a video chat and football. I&#8217;ll do some housework. Sunday there&#8217;ll be breakfast and looking out the window and a lot of reading and maybe some football and that&#8217;s the weekend. It&#8217;s nice to know a little about what&#8217;s in store. One day the weekend schedule will change itself. I won&#8217;t know how to act. They all kind of run together at this point, is what I&#8217;m saying. <\/p>\n<p>But things are just grand. Everyone here is healthy. The cats are happy. Dinner was good. I get to sleep in tomorrow. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Phoebe was a happy model for today&#8217;s addition to Catober. She&#8217;s hanging out in the hallway.
