A kingfisher with a fish in its beak flies along a river bank in the village of Gorodok, forty-eight kilometers (thirty miles) northwest of Minsk, Belarus.
I went to the #RetireeBreakfast yesterday morning. We talked of hunting, fishing, crop yields, old cars and medical bills just to mention a few things. It is always good to sit down with these guys and swap stories.

I had a visit from a #JehovahWitness in the early afternoon. He was a respectful old fellow who didnt press the issue when I told him I wasnt interested. I used to try to explain that I was aware of the religion and that I had friends and family who were members or had been members.
Anymore I just head them off and send them along. In a way I admire their commitment but I cant agree with their world view.

I had some errands to run so decided to stop for some breakfast at #SteaknShake. Not a good start to the day when you cant cut your eggs with a fork. I had to saw off bits with a dull butter knife. Chewy. Mmmmmm.
And then there was Hillarity Clintoon. About midway through the debate, Clintoon staked her climate record on whats widely perceived to have been one of the biggest diplomatic failures in recent historythe Copenhagen climate summit in 2009.
