Power Outage - I'm Back

I have been essentially (not completely) off line since two p. m. Pacific yesterday because of a power outage in the Hollywood Hills. [Spare us the obvious jokes about this, please.-ed. Okay, okay.] It gave me the opportunity to meet the real “neo-neocon” who came out from behind her apple to visit with Sheryl and me at our house while the light dimmed. More soon.
