It was a good day for the home team. Put me in, coach. She tried (unsuccessfully) to find the pizza behind her. It was Norse versus Raiders, just like in the 8th century. She saw this picture and said, `You got skills.`

Teenagers born in the early 2000s put on a show inspired by `I Love Lucy` from the 1950s. I sat in front of the judges and heard them critique the shows in real time.  I learned a lot about color guard. Watching these shows in small gyms early in the season helps prepare me for the world championships in April. Last year this team was peacocks (see March 9, 2024).  This year they`re snakes. The four stripes on her uniform represent violin strings.

What kind of person writes their sins on a plate and then smashes it, leaving sharp fragments on the ground (see December 20, 2022; January 9, 2023; and January 2, 2024)? I yielded right of way to a waterfowl. Hanging around downtown Dayton.
