The 13th day, are you worried? I'm not.

Comon who's afraid of the 13th day of the month come on raise your hands. Hell, just get up out of the burrows and accept the day. Either your gonna be the lucky Praire Dog the Hawk doesn't catch or you're gonna be road kill. Either way you can't hid from the date on the calendar.

Overly warm and humid this morning. Still I did an easy 3.3 mile run and had opprotunity to converse with another runner for a little bit. Later in the Morning I went to my younger brother's place; he did the preponderance of the work but we got the brake lights functional on his old plow jeep.

After that I came back home went grocery shopping for the week had dinner and then went for a 2&1/2 mile walk.

Now does anyone really think its OK to fly the U.S. Flag 24/7 365 a year without having it illuminated at night as called for in the US Flag Code? Apparently many people in the town of Highlands do. The Hacienda Restaurant and O'Niel High School being the two more blatantly unconcerned about the image they put out. Then there are all the Teachers, Students and Patrons of the establishments who never see whats wrong or even take a minimal action to correct it.

The U.S. flag at the Hacienda taco palace is now supported by the grommet at the top of the fly alone. As for O'Neil High School they fly the U.S. flag unlite 24/7 365 over the Foot Ball field. Well they did untill tonight. That flag now sits folded properly inside the shed behind the bleachers at the Football field. The faculty should find it there, but I wouldn't bet upon it as they never noticed it any other time when they should of.

So what about the 13th? any black cats cross your path, drop and break any mirrors, spill some salt? Don't worry its only superstitions. :)
