More Randomness

What a beautiful weekend we had. Clear blue skies. Warm temperatures. Perfect days, really. How long will they last?
Yet more evidence I am an aviation geek – one of our airplanes flew over the neighborhood yesterday and I stopped right in the middle of the road to watch it pass over. I was so happy when I noticed that my behavior had caused others around me to do the same. The miracle of flight is usually ignored around here.
On my usual walk around Linyi’s downtown on Saturday I was tickled to see the resumption of Spring behavior – girls posing elaborately for photos next to trees & flowers. Posing for photos is a common pastime for Chinese girls.
I was surprised to hear about the swine flu outbreak in Mexico since I haven’t been keeping up with news over the weekend. Scary. Read The Coming Plague and Betrayal of Trust by Laurie Garrett and The Great Influenza by John Barry if you want more fear!
