68°, crystal clear skies, light breeze.... and I slept most of it away. Got to bring home the bacon tonight.....
Normally I would be workin' up a sweat right now, but I'm not sure what work will hold in store this evening. Besides, I've done fairly well this week. I have been a little out of touch with what's going on in the world, but a quick glance at the news appears that things in the world (at large at least) are this side or the other of the status quo....
I know that this little SNAFU led to changes at my facility. That plant in AZ was locked down for seven hours. Why would a person drive to any job with a pipe bomb in the car, much less a nuclear plant? In the past, people have forgotten guns or beer cans in their cars (also security violations), but a pipe bomb? Totally weird....
Well, it's about time to be gettin' ready, so......
Roll Tide!

Happy Halloween, y'all.............!
Not too many ghouls or goblins this year, but at least I'm off this evening......
My employer had an excellent (if you're pro-nuke) news release the other day. TVA is somewhat on the cutting edge of the nuclear industry revival. Heck, if the French can exceed 70% of their grid being nuclear, why can't we? I don't believe we'll ever see nuclear power generating anywhere near 75% much, but we can easily do more than the 20% or so that we generate now.
As always, there is ENTIRELY too much candy left around my house. I like to be prepared. That just means leftover candy to take to work tomorrow night.......
If you are inclined to see that sort of thing, be sure to check out the new episodes of South Park and The Sarah Silverman Program this evening. Preview clips from comedycentral.com are available by clicking "read more" below and probably aren't suitable for work or family purposes.........

Ohhhhh yeah, baby..........
Amazon.com took care of the flawed CD in quick fashion. You guys rocked! I have listened to this CD to the point of Suzanne and our neighbors probably considering me obsessive. However, Little Things is pretty darn kickin'. A couple of the songs truly send that little electrified wave feeling down my spine. Weird? A video including one such song can be seen by clicking "read more" at the bottom of this post......
Now to the other customer service fiasco from a couple of weeks ago......
I was going to give these folks time, but I haven't received anything other than what looked to be a canned electronic response and that was over a week ago. OK, the Steak n Shake in front of Madison Square Mall was the source of my anger ten days ago. I hope they don't normally suck as bad as they did that night (food=OK, service=not OK) or else they will deservedly go out of business. Hope you folks get your stuff together.....
Well, I got word of some nice OT coming up for this week and probably the next as well. I love it when I can have it planned that far in advance. In fact, I'll be seeing how long I can last tonight so I can vamp out tomorrow. Heck, maybe I'll run for a while tonight after I do laundry. That might keep me more pumped up than just drinking coffee.....
I love the music this video is set to.......

Peace, y'all!
