1. I got my car back, one or two days early, which is better than late. All the bumps and scratches on the bumper are gone, even the ones the driver who backed into me had nothing to do with. They also vacuumed out the interior and left me a mint life-saver candy.

2. I did not watch the Republican debate. I am not interested in anything these people could possibly have to say.

3. A man found a group of people stealing his car's catalytic converter in the middle of the night. He confronted them. They shot him. In the leg. Then they ran away. This was a few blocks from here. He'll be OK, but watch it out there.

Totally with you on (2). I do not see what I would gain from it.

I hope you can keep safe.

Even less than I would.

My vision is poor these days because of cataracts. I frequently misread words on first glance, sometimes amusingly. Today it was, "I did not watch the Republican debacle."

1. Yay! (I would like to get my car's paint job redone, but I'll just scrape it up again.)
2. Ditto.
3. Confronting thieves is a terrible idea, but replacing a catalytic converter is inconvenient and horribly expensive.
