The Socialist and I are off for a few days of well-earned recreation. I'll be MIA for at least three days, maybe more. I anticipate coming home to three very indignant kitties, but their sitter dotes on them. Even if they are indignant, I'm not going to take it too seriously. The sitter is entranced by the fact that I've taught Clueless and The Grey Menace to do a few tricks, and she tends to be very generous in rewarding them for good behavior. Well, at least it lessens the guilt of abandoning them for three days.

SUV takes plunge in Hawai'i Kai. I tried finding a story about this after I saw a picture on CNN that had little background to go with it. It wasn't all that easy to find the story. A search for "car in swimming pool" turns up more instances of this sort of incident than I would have guessed. The survivors should consider forming a club or something.
In the last 48 hours I've had exactly twelve hits from people plugging "aspirus" into various search engines.

I have no idea why this Aspirus thing amuses me as much as it does, but I've decided that I shouldn't be the only one getting in on the fun though. EVERYBODY could be artificially bumping up their hits by simply throwing the word "aspirus" into their entries. It could be something subtle, like simply mentioning that you saw the word "aspirus" somewhere and wondered what it meant. Or you could be blatant, and use this as a separation between sections of your entry:ASPIRUS ASPIRUS ASPIRUS ASPIRUS ASPIRUS ASPIRUS ASPIRUS
