Sure Happy It’s Thursday here in rainy -- but not yet floody -- and Happy Larryville, GN!

Safe journeys to Paddy and Teh Younger.

The city of Cleveland demolished Ariel Castro’s house yesterday; pretty damned fast considering the thousands of abandoned homes there. Alleged reason for the special attention: so that nobody would take (and possibly sell) “memorabilia”.

The city is also making noises about building townhomes on the property (and a couple of adjacent empty lots). Because folks are clamoring to purchase townhomes in a carpy neighborhood:

It would have made a great haunted house on Halloween.

The Castro case is another one where I’m not really interested in understanding the motivation and mind set of the perpetrator. Damaged goods and all that--just toss him away and forget about him.

That was one creepy movie. The Steve Cannell show, Wiseguy, which starred Ken Wahl, had a story arc that featured that particular movie during their last season. This rich crazy guy watched the movie over and over again and made everyone in town act different parts.

I loved that series.

The animals in the zoo have better manners. Hopefully, rehab will fix that guy right up.

Sure Happy It’s Thursday, Gerbil Nation!
In about 45 minutes, Teh Older will be whisking Mrs. Paddy, Teh Younger, and I to the airport to fly to where it is hot and humid with occasional thunderstorms. After getting Teh Younger settled in, Mrs. Paddy and I will spend a couple of days in Naples, Fl then a couple of days in Key West.
Let the adventure begin!

We’ve safely arrived at our motel, after two uneventful flights and a drive through torrential rains. 90% humidity. There’s a reason I don’t live in some parts of the world.

Thanks for checking-in, Paddy.

There’s a reason I don’t live in some parts of the world.

A reason? Restraining orders? Warrant’s? APB’s? Angry fathers? Angry unwed mothers? Gingers everywhere?

Gingers everywhere?

Have fun, Paddy. We’ll hold down the fort out here in wonderful recovering California!
