1. While I had fun taking pictures of flowers and plants on the Univ. of Oregon campus, my best snapshots were metaphorical and were sound shots, snippets of things I heard people say as they walked up the section of 13th Avenue closed to auto traffic. One discussion among guys and gals involved the subtle differences between bongs and their efficacy in helping users get high. It was fun to hear just these words as another couple of guys passed by, "There's a good effect and a bad effect." Another excited guy wearing green sunglasses, "Dude. That was so crazy. You've got to do it again." I didn't hear any discussion of Shakespeare, Jane Austen, or the root causes of the Crimean War.
2. If I use the vocabulary used on the city bus for when things are really good, then the meatloaf and creamed cheese mashed potatoes and the asparagus Patrick fixed for dinner tonight were sick, insane, ridiculous and bomb. Not only that, the dinner was a superb effort on Patrick's part. It was really good of him to work so hard to make the three of us such a crazy meal.
3. The Spurs blow me away. Now they are up 3-0 against the Grizzlies with their second overtime win in a row, the second time in a row 37 year old Tim Duncan was the leading scorer in OT.
