Am sitting here waiting for rain and at the same time hoping the East Coast blizzard is not so severe. There was an interesting report about pumpkins. The record holder was 2328 pounds which is not related to the blizzard or the rash of candidates for the 2016 elections. At least I do not think so. Just for the record I will not run for any office which is a good thing. Speaking of politicians, have started reading about President Roosevelt’s journey down the River Doubt. Theodore would probably be willing to travel to Mars if he were alive today. Would he be concerned about global warming, the many wars and deflated footballs?
Lake Williams is 2500 feet below the ice in the Antarctic. It is very cold and of course there is no sunlight. But there is life and even fish. The life seems to thrive on carbon rich sedements. But it would be no place for either giant pumpkins or political candidates. Also a really strange looking shark was caught near Australia. It’s Frilled Shark. Now what about the robot drone designed by the Swiss? It is fast in the air and when it lands can move forward on land on it’s legs like a vampire bat. It does not eat bood or give anyone rabies.
