Here’s an excerpt:
A San Francisco cable car holds 60 people. This blog was viewed about 3,400 times in 2011. If it were a cable car, it would take about 57 trips to carry that many people.

Often found, during the summer, sleeping on our front porch as if it lived here.
Actually, two black cats:
Note from CLuser:
Check to see if the ear is notched. IF it is, then it is part of a program the SPCA has implemented for pest control. These are feral and semi feral cats that have been let loose in the community to catch mice and rats. All of them are are neutered, micro chipped and vaccinated. They tend to find a territory and stay there to keep other non-neutered and non-vaccinated animals out. The SPCA ask that you just watch to make sure it is not ill or injured. If it appears to be in need of medical treatment, then let them know so they can give instructions on pick up.

Hanging out afterward (almost 4 PM!) are a few members of a group that meets the third Wednesday of the month at 1:30 PM in the Milpitas Library computer room. (Kenna Mawk, R.I.P., had been scheduled to make the presentation at this meeting.)
Another group, complimentary to Milpitas, is starting in Saratoga. It will meet in the computer training room of the library on first Thursdays of the month, same time of day.
WordPress-Saratoga MeetUp Group <- 1st meeting is September 1st at 1:30 PM!
By the way, this blog, lincolnCt.com, is one of the simplest examples of what wordpress.com offers. (WordPress.org, on the other hand, gives you all the PHP/MySQL code to run on your own server.)

Humongous storage facility being build on Curtner, east of highway 87. Looks like cellphone reception will be exceptional.

Couple of volunteer cherry tomato plants popped out of the compost bin and I encouraged them to climb inside the cages. Never seen them this tall before.
Trouble is, a good part of our compost is made from orange and lemon rinds, so the red little fruits are decidedly citric, puckerliciously so.
