Innocent Pictures, PG Wodehouse comment, etc.

Picture: Young lady with elbow on table corner.

Of Note:

-I have been viewing several photos of Andrew Gray who has quite a collection from his life over in the Far East. And on occasion I will even read his commentary. This morning I did that and found this:
Recently a hospital in Japan installed a small door where parents can drop off unwanted babies. It sounds terrible, but they thought it might save the lives of babies that might otherwise be dumped in some unsafe location. Three hours later a child was pushed through the door. A father had driven all the way from a far off prefecture to bring his boy -- who is three years old.
which did not go along with the picture at all. Go check out the picture here. He posted the photo back in 2007.

-from Quote of the Day, this gem from PG Wodehouse:
At the age of eleven or thereabouts women acquire a poise and an ability to handle difficult situations which a man, if he is lucky, manages to achieve somewhere in the later seventies.
- PG Wodehouse
For the record, I am not quite in my 70's so can look forward to enlightenment in the near future.

-A belated wish: that that last shot from a Davidson player had gone in which would have made the Final Four three #1's and a #10. Was very surprised to hear that it is the first time that all #1 seeds made it to the Final Four. No parity anymore? Or is it pretty good seeding by the seeding guys?

-Lorena smokes the competition down in Arizona. Started the day with a one stroke lead and ends it with a 7 stroke victory. My oh my.

-Temperatures rising today. Ground is soggy from all the rain.
