Up at 6:30, but got to work at 10:00: Blogging can be too much of an attraction sometimes. I worked until 3:00 though, so got in my 5-hour morning shift.
Epril and I went to Bob's for lunch... salad and jalapeño poppers. Then back home for a 2-hour afternoon shift. (That needs to be longer.)
In the evening, I watched some interesting TV. First there was a documentary on the history of Chinese food. (Thousands of years ago, Chinese liked to boil everything, and nothing gets bits and pieces out of boiling water better than chopsticks. In Chinese, chopsticks are called "quick sticks". The "quick" word was replaced by European sailors with the word "fast"... which is "chop". (You have probably heard the saying, "C'mon, let's go! Chop-chop!")
After that was a documentary on the future of the automobile. Apparently auto manufacturer Opel made a race car with a diesel engine that ran for 24 hours at an average speed of 140 miles per hour with an agerage fuel efficiency of 113 miles per gallon. That's astounding.
