other views of this world

Last night we were both impressed with The Reluctant Fundamentalist
from the Flix®. It tells the story of a Pakistani professor who is torn by
his love for America and his experiences in his homeland where the CIA
has some (ahem) influence.  Enthralling...

(My Lyft experience yesterday was positive and I got a ride home from
Sabrina, so it all worked out and Ken goes in for open heart surgery tomorrow.)

joining the Lyft community

Poor Ken looks GREAT on the outside, but he is having some engine
problems with two red lights going on and off on his dashboard. He is
going in hospital for surgery on Monday and we will rent a car, but in the
meantime I just joined Lyft and will ride to/fro the Legion today and this
will be an experience. I have huge admiration for the young 'uns who
came up with this community concept of ride sharing and I'm looking
forward to not driving today. Coming home in the dark and rain last
night was harrowing and I thank dear Tanya for keeping me sane!
