“As soon as man does not take his existence for granted, but beholds it as something unfathomably mysterious, thought begins.” ― Albert Schweitzer, philosopher, physician, musician, Nobelist (1875-1965)
Personal Commentary/Observation
Long weekend ... couldn't go anywhere or plan anything really as the development servers were moved from DP to GAB and we had to wait, and wait, and still wait, until the move was completed and we could bring up services. Typical of the Servers Team - if anything could go wrong it did. I write this at 1:30 PM, Sunday ... we were supposed to have started everything up at 8 AM this morning .... we're still waiting for the 3rd checkpoint at 2 PM. Ridiculous.
On the plus side, Red Bull pulled first and second place finishes in the Bahrain Grand Prix to start off the 2023 Formula 1 season. I was disappointed to see Leclerc's car brake down on the track after completing around 3/4 of the race.
Last Friday I finally saw my first robin in our subdivision, weather has been pretty mild now that that big main monster storm front blew through. No wind or hail damage here at our house, thankfully. All fencing stayed up and intact. Hail was pea-sized and not much of that. Lucked out again.
