Life is good!


As I mentioned a few days ago, August is off to a good start. The Monster Movie Fan's Guide To Japan is selling, despite the worsening economy and the lingering problems of the Japanese travel industry in the wake of the March 11 earthquake and tsunami.







I received news from my Nebraska farm tenant on this year's corn crop:



Crops look okay, not a bumper yield, but price will offset yield loss. Can't seem to get a rain, haven't had any since first of July.


Thank goodness we've a good on-site well for plenty of irrigation water!

Also, two claim assignments have come in since the first of the month. That's good sign! The latest one is to do a scene investigation on a sheriff vehicle vs. a big rig collision. We're still down in claim file count for the year (so far), but any work that comes in is welcome.

A quick note on last night's GOP presidential debate. I think Romney did well and didn't do anything that would endanger his "front-runner" status. Pawlenty came off like a petulant high school kid. I was most impressed by Bachmann.

On the home front, my "roomie" made a great middle-eastern dish that was delicious last night for dinner. It is great to have more regular home-cooked meals and a fully-stocked refrigerator and a woman in the house again.

Life is good!
