Pet Peeves.

Aloha: We all have them. Little things that just set you off. There is one that I thought was put to sleep, but has reared its ugly head again. I do not understand how otherwise smart people can not understand that when we count we start at one. We have 10 fingers so out number base is ten. Why is it then that "smart" people thought that 1999 was the last year of the 20 century. Start at 1; end at 0!!! There was no year zero. I just read an article about "the end of the first decade of the 21st century". We still have 12 months left in the first decade. Start at 1; end in 0. Decade; 1 - 10. century 1 - 100. How hard is that? When you count your fingers it is 1 -10; not 0 - 9!!!!

Soon after I did my post yesterday, Anakam got a call from the insurance division of the office of consumer protection. She then got a call from her employer and she is to take all her paper work in to the HR people and they will work out the mess. Hopefully things will be worked out to her satisfaction.

After about 12 hours of a nice gentle rain the sun is back and the firemen are back on their knees. Hopefully tomorrow will be a nice wet day and the firemen can stay in their firehouses. From this page to God's ear!

I hear that San Diego got a little bit on shaking this morning. There was an earthquake in Mexico. Quite a shaker, so there will be damage near the center of the quake.

Our volcano is just doing its thing and all is SOS, so that will be it for the day. May the Good Lord bless and keep you all safe in the palm on His right hand. In Nabru's case His left hand. for those of you who do not know; Nabru is left handed.
