Fifty Years Ago, Brain-eating Ameobas, Porcupine like Dinosaurs, Warp D andthe Vice Presidential Debatesrive

Fifty years ago I was going to Weapons Controller school in Florida. It wouldn’t have been as exciting had not the Soviets place missiles in Cuba. Which brings me to the scarey brain-eating ameobas that have killed nine in Karachi, Pakistan. By the way this comes from BBC News thus the spelling. Would it be not be discouraging but very lucky if the ameobas died of malnutrition rather than killing the  host. What a great discovery! A very early dinosaur that seems to have been wide spread has been found, It was small, had sharp teeth, ate vegetables and may have had spike hair, like the quills of a porcupine. I think we should clone them and have great herds roaming the plains of America. They could be with the cloned wooly mammoths. What a tourist attraction!

Now for the warp drive. Scientist have been actually working on the development of faster than light speed. We could visit other star system and I could visit my people. Speaking of that, are you ready for the vice presidential debates? You should get some Dr Pepper, microwavable popcorn (but don’t spend too much time smelling newly open bag) and sit back and enjoy. Who will win? Will it get down and dirty? Do the Democrats really really need to win. Will the President have on his game face for the next presidential debate? A lost of questions that can only be answered by the unfolding events.

I have really had another great day in retirementville. Walked with my faithful companion, the manly miniature poodle, Kip, We took our favorite journey to Eagle Rock Park watching for the rain that may come some day. There were no little dinosaurs and hopefully no brain eating ameobas. Came home and worked in the back yard, then watched an episode of the cult science fiction series, FarScape. Netflix described it as a cult science fiction. Does that mean that I am a member of a cult?
