Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Do you remember how you got there, Gud? Have men in black asked you any questions?

-t -- I don't know, but I wouldn't be surprised if they did -- a lot of the series was filmed outdoors (of course!) and the actors must have spent hours walking slowly, swinging metal detectors.

OTOH, I can't remember any closeups of their spades and shovels uncovering props -- just medium shots where the hole is dug or being dug, so that the actor could have just palmed the "find" (usually a worthless bit of metal).

(One of the leads is Toby Jones, in a non-villainous role for once, trying hard not to live a life of quiet desperation.)

Our wings are not tired.

Enjoy Charlotte, Gud.

First time back in the office since the big windstorm, and one of the rowhouses across from my window has about 3/4 of the roof peeled back, down to the wood decking. I hope they get a tarp up there before this afternoon.

If I got up at 5-ish for meetings that are not happening, I will be very put out.

As you should be. I would not be pleased with that scenario.

Oooh, just found out that the Detectorists show has a third season! Something to look forward to, definitely.
