Crappy photo, but you get the gist. Just had to call animal control about this intruder on my neighbor's driveway. He's not moving too swiftly but he also shouldn't be out and about at this hour.You thinking it's rabid or injured?

My wife saves the Mandarin oranges that we don't eat before they get hard and stale to throw at the racoons. I swear, the woman has an arm on her and a dead aim. Sometimes it takes the racoons days to work up the courage to venture into the backyard again.

I'm not aware. I'm guessing this creature was not well because when the dude from animal control showed up, he hissed a little, but didn't try to make a break for it. The guy had this long pole with a collar on it, snagged the raccoon and dropped him into a cage. He was here and gone by the time I posted the original note.Hard to say if it's injured.

Mostly. We had to go to my brother's on Saturday to remove a sofa-bed, which was a chore. Damned things are heavy and clumsy. Much of the rest of the weekend was devoted to the continued financial planning that has become the annual custom leading up to filing the tax return. Spent an hour or two last night on a call with a friend from college who is a financial consultant, letting him pitch me on the virtues of indexed annuities for capital preservation. He made a powerful case, one I'm sure gets him a lot of traction with people who are less familiar than I am with equities markets (not that I'm an expert, by any means). But, being me, I had to point out that his slide depicting the markets going up and down by 50% makes for simple math but doesn't jibe with the actual behavior of the markets. I'm such a pain in the ass. He was good-humored about me keeping it real.Morning, muchachos.Good morning, Bret. Hope you enjoyed a restful weekend.
I conceded that I am a borderline case for such a pitch - farther ahead in retirement finance than most Americans if statistics are to be believed, but not so far ahead as not to be concerned about the money running out if I live too long, and also concerned to make things simple as possible for the missus if I don't. It's something to look at.

with 312 to follow.
The moon is waning. Morning stars are Jupiter, Mars and Uranus. Evening stars are Jupiter, Mars, Saturn, Uranus and Venus.
On this date in history:
In 1803, the U.S. Supreme Court, in its Marbury v. Madison decision, ruled the power of the federal government was no greater than that of any individual state.
In 1868, Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Abraham Lincoln, was impeached by the U.S. House. Johnson, the first U.S. president to be impeached, was acquitted by a single vote three weeks later, ending a three-week trial in the Senate.
In 1916, under the eyes of the Kaiser, the German Crown Prince Wilhelm and his army smashed their way toward the fortress of Verdun, in France.
In 1933, Japan shocked the world, withdrawing from the League of Nations.
In 1945, U.S. troops took the Philippines capital of Manila from the Japanese.
In 1946, Juan Perón was elected president of Argentina.
In 1968, South Vietnam recapture the city of Hue, as the Tet Offensive comes to an end after 25 days of brutal combat.
In 1981, Britain's Prince Charles announced his engagement to Lady Diana Spencer.
In 1988, the U.S. Supreme Court defended the right to satirize public figures when it voted 8-0 to overturn a $200,000 settlement awarded the Rev. Jerry Falwell over a parody of him in Hustler magazine.
In 1989, nine people were killed when a 10-by-40-foot section of a United Airlines 747 ripped away from the jetliner's outer skin on a flight from Hawaii to New Zealand.
In 1991, after weeks of airstrikes, U.S.-led coalition forces began a ground campaign into Kuwait and southern Iraq as part of the Gulf War.
In 1992, General Motors announced a record $4.5 billion loss in 1991 and said it would close 21 plants and idle 74,000 workers over four years.
In 1995, diver Greg Louganis, who won four gold medals in the Olympic Games in 1984 and 1988, revealed he had AIDS during an interview on ABC's 20/20. News of his revelation hit the news days earlier.
In 2004, an earthquake struck Morocco, killing about 600 people and injuring hundreds more.
In 2014, scientists announced that a tiny zircon crystal from Australia, 4.4 billion years old, was confirmed to be the oldest discovered fragment of Earth's crust.
In 2020, a New York City jury found former Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein guilty of third-degree rape and first-degree sexual assault in a case that launched the #MeToo movement. He was sentenced to 23 years in prison in March 2020.
In 2022, after weeks of warnings from the West and Kiev, Russia launched an attack against Ukraine under orders from President Vladimir Putin, who described it as the start of a "special military operation." Nearly a year later, about 7,200 civilians were dead as a result of the war.

Ehhh...A pellet gun would offer higher velocity, and hence greater potential for accuracy, but the size of the projectile would magnify mechanical error. At the same time, it offers greater potential to wound, but low potential of lethality. That I carry a sidearm regularly, and own enough firearms to outfit a combat squad, doesn't make me the sadistic maniac the hysterical left suggests I am. I'll kill anything that threatens death to me or my family, and I'll hunt for the sake of wildlife management. But I'm not interested in inflicting pain on animals because they behave like animals.Pellet gun would work better than oranges don't you think?

Don McLean.Englebert Humperdinck.Roberta Flack dead at 88.That's a loss. Her voice was sexy as hell.
Trivia of the day: Flack's biggest hit was "Killing Me Softly With His Song," composed by Charles Fox, with lyrics by Norman Gimbel based on inspiration from Lori Lieberman after she attended a concert. Who was the artist whose songs were "softly killing" Lori Lieberman?

I failed regular Connections. I was aware of each category, but couldn't come up with the final solution. In retrospect, I should have gotten it.I got stuck on yellow, of all things. I could see what they were going for, but couldn't get the right combo in place.
