• While in Nilgiri's (think Albertson's... just a wee bit smaller) yesterday, the power went out... and absolutely no one said a word... most didn't even break stride in their shopping... two ladies in the "Coffee & Tea" aisle with me whipped out flashlights and kept right on shopping...
• Today, we passed the "Real Taste Restaurant"... this could be SAMCO in a few years... now "Taste is Their Concept"... tomorrow, after solving the taste concept... they could be the next "Real Taste Restaurant"... stranger things have happened... (speaking of stranger things, I think Chuck is looking into franchising rights to bring a "Barbecue Nation" to Paso Robles...)
• Driving around earlier, we passed an oxcart being pulled by (oddly enough) an ox... but not just any ox... this ox was large... and had blue horns... I think we found Babe... Paul Bunyan's famous blue ox!
• All of our trips hither and yon and we finally(?) passed the Tamil Nadu Livestock Development Agency... I am just guessing... I don't think much of their budget is allocated to the development of a beef program...

That's all... just four quick thoughts...
