Adams Rubble: I am afraid I was busy yeserdat and this morning and did not think much about our topic
Riddle Sideways: oh dear neither of us made it to Eden's yesterday
Adams Rubble: I found it intereting that I was annoyed with a slight change to a schedule I had carefully crafted
Riddle Sideways: no, not much on topic

Riddle Sideways: did watch the 4th of 4 of the Leon Panetta lecture series last night
Riddle Sideways: it was 2 famous Historians
Riddle Sideways: trying to answer 'what would the founding fathers think'

Riddle Sideways: there were some surprizing answers

Adams Rubble listens
Riddle Sideways: ah
Riddle Sideways: one was that there have been times when congress was unruly and non-functional
Riddle Sideways: they had a caning
Adams Rubble: well that was leading up to Civil War
Riddle Sideways: another was a point about modern transportation allows members to get out of town weekends
Riddle Sideways: instead of staying and talking to each other
Riddle Sideways: sort of did have moments about 'of that Time'
Riddle Sideways: if Slavery had been not allowed by the Constiution
Riddle Sideways: it would not have been pasted
Riddle Sideways: then the discussion of how freedom of speech and the press were not written in, but added immediately as the first amendment
Riddle Sideways: well, the guy was long winded, but did a good job on always mentioning history and relating it to current
Riddle Sideways: and That is one excuse why there was no time to prepare any No-Time topics
Adams Rubble: :)

Riddle Sideways: did your town have its parade?
Adams Rubble: yes and little one had a good time; she met the mayor and two Councilmen
Adams Rubble: and collected flags
Riddle Sideways: was she properly impressed
Riddle Sideways: by the flags

Riddle Sideways: did read your blog tho
Riddle Sideways: the things that don't go exactly like the planned schedule
Adams Rubble: the schedule was easily fixed after I stopped sulking
Riddle Sideways: hey, beel, thought there would be a pause here
           --BELL--
Riddle Sideways: read the blog right after a long walk that had been preceded by dread
Adams Rubble: ohhh
Riddle Sideways: went with 2 exercisers and dog walkers
Riddle Sideways: they go out at least twice daily marching hills
Riddle Sideways: so was wondering about abilities to keep up
Riddle Sideways: then there became so many interesting things to stop and study
Riddle Sideways: the valley overlook
Adams Rubble: :)
Riddle Sideways: the work neighbors did on proping up the old tree
Riddle Sideways: big cat prints
Riddle Sideways: etc. not to mention the number of texts she got
Adams Rubble: ohhh
Riddle Sideways: so it was a slow couple mile stroll
Riddle Sideways: have done longer museum walks
Adams Rubble still thinking of the big cats
Riddle Sideways: and the dread was not needed
Adams Rubble: :)

Riddle Sideways: so many things to go whirling around the brain
Riddle Sideways: that are a waste of Time
