Interesting indeed....

Did you see that Maddow clip below? About how Obama's trip to India is going to cost the US taxpayers 220 million dollars a day, and he'll be accompanied by one tenth of the navy?

Peter heard that on Austrian radio news today, which only cements the reason I pay attention to such things. He didn't really believe it, but I told him what yesterday's segment had been about. And he nodded.

Apropos Peter, he came through the operation with new stents in his veins in his remaining leg, and it was so mild today, I could take him out a bit and get some air. He said it was a long and arduous procedure and he hated it, but it was necessary. No music this time, but they did play Wagner on the radio when he got out of surgery. Which made us both smile.....

So he had a good day... for a change...
