June 10, 2012 - Blowin' in the Wind
The answer my friend, is blowing in the wind. At least that is what one person believes. Ed believes that most questions can be answered with the help of a tally counter and a stopwatch. This week in Santa Barbara was full of wind; and answers, too, if you follow that line of thought.
I was very windy all week long! It was take a nap and wake up over the rainbow with your house on an evil witch windy. Here at home, it was the wind where one more gust could put an end to your neighbor constantly nagging about how his big huge trees are shedding across your whole yard, and dropping seeds on your lawn.
So, after a week of being blown about, Edhat gives you our Sunday best.
The Cat of the Week is KC, the coolest cat on the block; The Dog of the Week is Olive, the best doggone-dog in the world. Nicole has a few choice words for John Mayer; the Urban Hikers bring us some signs of the times, and Mike Shinn shares some fun in the sun tips.
