Awake: 5:36am Temp 63 sleep 5+41 partly sunny overnight @ Nicktown.
K & I attend 8:00am Mass & then join the KK for a little over an hr.
Back @ our motorhome, Gary C calls: “What did you do to my radio” he asks. “Not much” I tell him. Before I have a chance to be more specific, he tells me: “It’s working!” He told me he checked it (3) times @ different temperatures & it still works. I was delighted to hear that…& I’ll keep my fingers crossed.
Late morning I get a Skype call from Ray in Ocean Park; we gab for a good hr. “What do you think of my motorcycle?” he asks. I had to tell him…I thought he was pulling my leg when he sent a dazzling picture of a Sportster motorcycle with him sitting proudly on the machine. Now I realize it’s for real & he’s pretty excited about it. Ray is now the proud owner of (3) bikes: the Wizard Motor bike, the Harley Sportster motorcycle & his old classic English Square Four motorcycle.
Next, I call my ole buddy Kenny in Anchorage, AK. Kenny keeps himself up-to-date pretty well on politics, so I ask him how he feels about Sara Palin being VP for McCain. Wow, (51) min later, I had more than an ear full; nothing I care to reveal however.
Before dinner, I scan the Pittsburg map for Carnegie-Mellon University so we can pick up Zack later this week; he’ll be visiting our area for a few days.
Dinner: Tilapia Amandine with brown rice pilaf, mixed salad & fresh pear slices.
Watch int’l news; Jeopardy & the O’Reilly Factor.
Later, we finish watching the movie: “Say Anything” with John Cusack, Ione Skye, John Mahoney, Lili Taylor, Amy Brooks, etc. Satisfying teenage comedy-drama about a self-assured loner who goes after the Class Brain & finds her surprisingly human; amusing, endearing & refreshingly original. 1989. Basically a good story but perhaps more tuned for the younger generation.
Lights out: 11:25pm
