"It was a sad day when I realized my universal remote control did not actually control the universe."

I have no idea.

Sometimes I think this country is so screwed up there's no recovery, no restoring sanity. Case in point: the governor of Virginia. Early in the week he said he was supportive of a bill that would allow third trimester abortions, including right up to birth. That led to a question about a baby that was born with unspecified birth defects. His answer left open the possibility for euthanasia at the mother's discretion.
Crickets from the left.
Then a picture from his med school yearbook from 35 years ago surfaced that showed him either in blackface or a KKK outfit (he said he was one of the two people in the pic but not which one). So far both state and national Dem leaders, the NAACP, and various other bigwigs have called for him to resign.
I just don't get it. It's hard not to see the silence re. his abortion comments as just plain evil. We decry the infant sacrifices made by various ancient cultures and don't see the parallel to abortion.

I met with Levy this morning. I'm finding the language and cultural differences problematic. Today we talked about the difference between positional truth (the believer is not a sinner, but is righteous) and experiential truth (the believer sins). I'm not sure he got it.
But he's such a nice guy!

I've been doing some research on replacing the floor pans in the Mustang and learned today about panel adhesive. It's a 3M product that's essentially a monstrously strong epoxy. Clean the surfaces, mix the two parts of the adhesive and clamp the panel in place. That last part is a problem with a floor pan where you can't clamp so rivets is the solution. In 24 hours you've got a bond that is stronger than a weld and doesn't carry the risks that come with the heat of welding (including that gas line that runs under the floor.
Gonna have to check this out.

This evening while watching a recorded episode of America's Test Kitchen I learned the word ramekin. I knew what they were but not what they're called. Perfect timing because I'm referring to them in my sermon tomorrow morning and was just going to call them "individual souffle' cups."

They're about 4" across and made of porcelain. I first saw them when we had a MOST delicious dinner at the Carmitchel's home. Cheryle made individual Grand Marnier souffle's for dessert. I had never in my life had anything that good. I've since learned they're a lot of work, require considerable skill, and are risky because getting them light and fluffy is tricky.
And SO worth it!

I haven't been regular at the gym since our trip. I need to go at least five days a week or all I get out of it is the pain. I'm afraid to get on the scale tomorrow morning for my weekly weigh-in. I've already resolved to to back to "one cheat per week" routine Monday morning!

Concerned about tomorrow's efforts. I'll go over them again and again tonight and then tomorrow morning before we leave.
Aaargh.
