It's a holiday weekend. Enjoy the freedom they gave you. Have fun.

I don't know about you but I'm off to the Silver Dollar Fair to worship at the shrine of the once and future Corn Dog Queen.

And her royal court:

Mine is the best. Wifey and youngest daughter went to Destin for the weekend to visit our son and his wife's family. Sweet solitude.

Just heard the parade go past my house up the hill on Main Street. The calliope lingered a bit, sounding like a drunken ice cream truck. Somehow, patriotic music played on an out of tune calliope seemed appropriate. Made me think of my childhood in Scottsbluff in the early 70s. Man did they have grand parades in that little town. Those days are surely gone.

She looks quite at home in that uniform.

None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free.

At least the gals really selling corn dogs are making and honest living.

My kids recently commented on some dude on the side of the street holding some advertisement sign. They didn't think much of him, but I reminded them that at least the guy is working. Maybe that is all he can do. Much better than the BS artists at the side of the road with the cardboard signs playing on our sympathies.

I took my son to SF, CAli, to see a museum exhibit. He rode on the sideboard of the cable car up and doooown the hills. It was priceless. These skaters made me think of that (I'd like to see them take the boards down Nob Hill).
