Good afternoon GH.  Well, it is nearly 3:30 in the PM, so I think that good afternoon is appropriate about now.  The view out the Weather Window is a beautiful blue sky and the sun is shining as brightly as it can at this time of year.  Sugar the Weather Dog is back in her bed after getting sick to her tummy, so she is resting now.  If I spoke more fluent Corgle, I would have understood her when she asked to go out.  My bad.   Currently the temperature display on the desktop is a very nice 49 degrees.  We are expecting a high in the upper fifties and lower sixties on Saturday and Sunday.   A possible chance to get in some additional time on the Grand Haven channel, especially if the forecast-ed showers also come to pass.  Of course, Sugar the Weather Dog will get a bone too.  I want to mention that enough time has passed since the Tigers were bested by the Giants 4-0 in the World Series.  Coming off the Cubs, that was good, but not nearly as good as it might have been.  Also, although the NHL and its players are talking, the Winter Classic which was to have been held at the Big House in Ann Arbor, was canceled.  I don't know which set of millionaires is greedier, but I think they both are to blame.  For the average fan, they all seem to make too much money.  However, the owners lease taxpayer supported arenas, so I tend to think that the players have more to lose every game.  I also know that Adam was hoping to see a Grand Prix race while he visits Boston with Steph, but alas, the Patriots are on, so the sports bars there will be showing that on every available television.  I don't really have a horse in that race, but you would think that they could spare one television for auto racing fans.  I came away from the recent election season relieved.  I am so tired of  the barrage of political commercials for all the candidates and all the issues.  I felt like little Abby when she just wanted it to stop.  However, I am beginning to miss the constant email contacts soliciting money for the various groups and causes.  But, given the alternatives, I like it better.  I thought that Mr. Romney gave a nice concession speech, while President Obama was also nice in his victory speech.  So much money to produce so little change.  Otherwise, I am awaiting my next editing job for the index Mary is working on.  I already have ten hours in, so I will be glad when this one is done.  I got the outdoor furniture completely covered today, so that is one more thing off my To Do list.  So, until next time, I'll just say fare the well,,
