I stole this “dog’s life” photo from Wirecutter in honor of Sol’s dog Sweetie, who was killed yesterday. Rest in peace, and never run out of bacon, Sweetie.
Verse of the day- Colossians 4:5-6

Interesting financial analysis.

So very very sorry to read that you lost a dog yesterday. Heartfelt condolences.
Pets are family. Anyone that would kill a dog deserves a rope.
It’s even more sinister than that. The low-life who shot the dog was the previous owner, but had been starving and abusing it. Sol had adopted the dog a few years ago to save it. When the idiot saw the dog loose, he probably killed it out of spite.
Lord, let me be half the person my dog thinks I am.
Sorry sol. What a low-life that dude is. All Dogs go to Heaven. I know where this doosh will go. 👿
Amen. You can usually tell what kind of a person anyone is by their love and respect of animals! Including the ones we eat! That says a lot about our Dear Sol!!!! Any rescuer of animals has a heart of GOLD!
Definitely.
That’s true. He has a big heart, and has a lot of patience with the critters under his care.
Speaking of thugs.

High winds and rain causing problems in the lower Chesapeake.

Some of our guys at Langley had to leave meetings early today because of this weather. Freedom1781, have you had any trouble up around Yorktown?
I dunno around doen there. But higher up on the bay, and a bit to the west, it was sleet and snow all night. my poor Lady’s Mantle had little globes of ice on their leaves this morning instead of dew, and the hyacinths look like they were put in a cryo-tank!
Yikes! I know that look. Flowers encased in ice is not a happy thing.
I heard about the ships on the 11 o’clock news last night.

We didn’t lose power in my neck-of-the-woods but the winds and rain were awful, felt like we were in a hurricane. I was home sick all day yesterday, so I didn’t have to drive in that mess. There was a funnel cloud spotted near the river at Yorktown, it wasn’t a water spout, like we sometimes get. It’s still windy today and much colder. Yesterday the high temp was near 80, today it’s in the lower 40s.
That’s good news coverage. The news last night made it sound like the ship was grounded in Norfolk or up against the Ches Bridge Tunnel, which would have been bad. But it was on the beach near Virginia Beach, east of the bridge, which is a whole lot better.
