No reaction whatever to the covid shot of yesterday.
Some months ago I bought a battery-powered, clip-on, gooseneck music light with the idea of using it as a desk lamp for the podium in our auditorium. Unfortunately because of the shape of the podium, and the way you have to clip the light on, the gooseneck wasn’t long enough and didn’t want to stay in position if you forced it. So it went unused for months. The other day I spotted it in the auditorium and brought it up to my room and glared at it for a while. I opened it up because I could hear something loose. Yes, the battery had been held in by glue and had come free. So I fixed that and thought for a while, and realized a way to make it work. I should have taken a picture. Anyway, never mind. I walked to Ace Hardware and bought a couple of screws and some wire, and modified the lamp, and clipped it on the podium, and it worked.
At 11am we had a lecture about online scams by a lieutenant Kan of the Palo Alto PD. He deals with scam complaints regularly. He gave a well-organized talk with helpful slides. I didn’t learn anything new, but it was a nice presentation.
In the afternoon I started working on the next collection of images for my hallway gallery. It’s going to be flowers. I’d printed a lot of our best flower pics before, but I will probably reprocess them and make new prints with the whizzy apps I have now.
