Fall

As I was driving back from the store tonight, I noticed a 'bank' of fog pouring off the schoolyard near me. I don't know what causes it, but the lawn at the schoolyard sometimes forms fog when there isn't fog anywhere else -- I swear it has a cemetery feel to it when it's foggy, except for the electric lights and cars driving by.

There's an old house on the property --

I took a little walkaround this past weekend to see if I could get any Autumn shots -- I waited a bit too late because most of the color had happened, and most of the leaves had fallen off. But here's a pic from the neighborhood --

Firefox just came out with a new version that is supposed to rival Chrome in speed.

I left Firefox for Opera months and months ago because FF kept spiking the CPU on the Mac, resulting in long, long, long beach balls. I finally had enough.

So I switched to Opera.



It's weird that I would care at all about which browser I use. And odd also that I don't prefer Safari on the Mac.

I find Safari annoying -- I have to drag twice to go backwards...and nothing about the feel of it works for me.

Chrome bores the socks off me.

Opera was good - I liked it, and especially the built-in semi-VPN (free!)...Opera really is good. I just sorta miss Firefox! So I'm giving it another try!

Fun having brunch with friends this past weekend...I really should do that more often -- brunch is almost always fun!

On another note -- a friend today at lunch noted that it is kinda anal how many spreadsheets I keep. I told him -- just wait until I'm retired and have time to REALLY keep some spreadsheets, lol! It's gonna be amazing, lol!

And another note -- great about the Australian marriage equality referendum!
