A Monday Morning Mix of Stuff

Of note:

I like Boxman's sense of humor in this photo of a statue (sitting nude) and a lady (?) with an umbrella.

China did a super job with the 2008 Olympics. And we all got a peek into the lives of the most populous country in the world. Very impressive. Hope they continue to improve air quality in Beijing (and elsewhere). Wonder what would happen here in Loogootee or anywhere in America if it was suggested (ordered?) that half the vehicles stay off the streets every other day? Guess we would just use the other vehicle in the garage, right? (We did do a pretty good job of changing habits these past several months when gas prices crossed into the unacceptable zone.)

Did you notice that the other guy in contention for the POY (player of the year) in professional golf did not make the cut at the Barclays?

Marty sent me this link to some great photos from the Olympics.

Democratic convention starts in Denver today. For political junkies, expect there will be a moment or two that tops the Olympic extravaganza of the past eight days. But maybe not. Seems to me this convention matters unlike the ones of the past several years - and I don't know why I fee that way. Just do.
