Amtrak.com says the Zephyr stops in Helper, Provo and Salt Lake, Connie, looks like bus connections to some other cities. Hm, that train actually leaves from hereabouts at a fairly convenient time. The Coastal Starlight is middle of the night departure or arrival either direction.
Willow: Something evil-crashed to earth in this. Then it broke out and slithered away to do badness.
Giles: Well, in all fairness, we don't really know about the "slithered" part. Anya: No, no, I'm sure it frisked about like a fluffy lamb.

Forgot to bring my allergy meds home. I hope I put them on my desk at some point rather than leaving them in a conference room.

Provo is my town! When I plugged Provo into Amtrak's trip planner, they wanted me to schlep to Salt Lake to get the train. Stupid trip planner. But I think my credit rating would object if I put together another trip so soon. Though a short hop to Denver would only take three days tops, what with turn around times, and I bet it would be really cheap. Maybe my summer trip next year.

Well, that's no darn good! I hope you don't need them tonight.
It's this Abbey, -t. [link] Another fine entry by the New Belgium brewing company. I like quite a few of theirs, especially the Fat Tire and the Snapshot, although I haven't liked many of their seasonals.

The FBI has had my fingerprints since I covered a visit to campus by Patricia Nixon as a student newspaper reporter. When I was a newspaper reporter, the paper was getting me Secret Service credentials, and the city editor said to me, "Should I worry about you? They didn't ask how to spell your name."

To which you smile faintly and say quietly, "It's classified."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That's awesome, Ginger.
I have a beer! And the day off tomorrow! Woot.

I'm not sure how long my fingerprints have been on file, anymore. I had it done to get my secret security clearance in the Navy, and then again every few years to keep it. Never did get my top secret, although I would have needed it for the unit I was transferring to when I got out.

Mmm, that sounds nice, Sail. Fat Tire sounds familiar.
It's not peak allergy season for me, I should be fine. And I've got some claritin lying around if I need it.
That's a great story, Ginger!
I run into weirdness like that with the trip planner, Connie - it's always trying to make me go to Sacramento to transfer when Martinez is one stop from me and in the direction I'm going and an easier transfer point. It's not a smart tool.
