No matzoh at Festival in Andover. No lamb. The butcher said, “We only carry it for holidays. Can’t push it any other time.” Not many Jews in Andover either, apparently. This is a big one for Jews all over the world, but not big enough to create a market for lamb at the local supermarket. No matzoh cake meal either. All this means a trip to Byerly’s tomorrow. Plenty of Jews in and around Maple Grove. It’s all about the market. Plenty of Hindu’s in Maple Grove, too.
I don’t imagine there are many Parsi here either. Oh, well. It’s probably fair to say that I’m one of a handful of the Taoist inclined, too. May be a few Chinese folks and me.
Just finished the Saturday workout. This one’s a bugger and my muscles can tell they’ve had hard use. It’s the only way to make’em grow and the only way to compensate for age related loss of muscle mass. It’s important, but it doesn’t make it easy.
The world is a strange, big place. While I did my resistance work, I listened to a program on the evolution of the planet. The irregular catastrophic punctuations in her history gives me pause. The Chixilub meteor, fissure eruptions, super volcanoes, snowball earth, a few ice ages here and there and pretty soon, as Evertt Dirksen used to say, you’re talking about real extinction events. It may be that we have come on the scene in a period of Pax Terra; but, based on our history as a planet, I’d say it won’t last.
