this is a landmark: post 150

Now that I see Gavin Newsom on TV this morning, I remember that he was on the flight from LAX to San Jose on my long return. Not sure why he was doing that but it was interesting. He is in NY now for Bill Clinton's summit.

In the 10 days that I wss gone and certainly the past week, it has definitely turned to fall (with ridiculous hot spells in the middle of the day). "They" promise that it will cool off by the end of the weekend, which is good. Time has been pretty compressed and Erev Rosh Hashanah is Monday. Yargh.

Last night Jackie and I saw "The Foreigner" at San Jose Rep. Quite delightful. We were running a tad late and did not have time for sticky rice with mango, and the play was over 2 hrs so the restaurant was closed by the time it was over. Next time.

OMG they are replaying Bush's comments from last night.
McCain is opting out of Frday's debate. OK.
I still don't get how this works (or doesn't). Many of us are preaching to the choir. How do we reach those few who are undecided? I dunno.

These next two days will be wacko at work I think. Small things need to be gotten in order and packed and ready to move on Monday.

The aeason is changing. A new Jewish year. More points along the continuum. I thought I would be tired but seem to have recovered and so am heading to Santa Monica to visit my father this weekend. I will take the computer so he can see the Europe photos.
