Update on Dad's Progress

My dad came home on Tuesday and seems to be doing really well. He is on a regular exercise routine which mostly involves walking around parts of the house for a few minutes 3 or 4 times a day. Staying warm is a problem as his body tries to get back in balance, but otherwise the progress looks really good. My brother has been visiting this week and will leave tomorrow; I'll be down there on Thursday to stay for Christmas.

On an unrelated topic, my glancing encounters with presidential also-rans continues. A few months ago I passed Jesse Jackson a couple of doors down from my condo; this Sunday on the way home from grocery shopping I walked past Ralph Nader. I wonder who is next?

    I would find each of those very exciting. I am always surprised that famous people just move around the streets like the rest of us.

    I came within spitting distance* of Al Sharpton last year, in Tenleytown.



    *Not that I would have.

    Interesting that that phrase came to mind though.

    Interesting is right!

    Actually, though, he livened up the presidential race last year, so I have to give him credit for that. Would that the other Democrats had his oratory skils...
