News Planetwide and Local

Some headlines today on planet earth:

Chinese Premier Visits Japan

Snoop Dogg Pleads No Contest (and wins, sorta')

An email was received inquiring about the resident possum at the beach house. Arnold, opposumus germanicus austriabodicus, has been quiet since the effort he made to direct traffic during the local Christmas parade. He has been seen on occasion, but has made no attacks against the green garbage dumpster thangy or the barbeque grill in a while. I was awakened in the middle of the night last week by the howl of either a cat or dog just outside the bedroom window. Probably Arnold protecting his possum ponderosa. He likes to stir things up in warm weather so mention of him may become more frequent.

Enjoy the great weather today. Rain is in the forecast tomorrow.
