Breaking Election News:

An old timer comes down the dock this morning and i ask him if he voted yet.

He replies that he’s not voting and this guy is a guy that doesn’t go a half hour without talking politics.

I told him and this is for the record that if one of the candidates that we consider to be terrible gets elected by a one vote margin that I will never ever let him forget it.

So here it is, the reminder.  You could get stuck with someone that you can’t stand as a candidate.  if voter turnout is low and that person gets in by one vote and does things that you are diametrically opposed to, you have no one to blame but yourself.

8:32 Ralph DiGiorgio Voted

 

Update:

We convinced the old timer who wasn’t going to vote, to vote-

10:35 Jane Marchurs reports 190 voters at East Gloucester Elementary

Update:

GOOD MORNING MR. BUFFALO-HEAD!

Ponds and waterways are filling up with one of the smallest ducks found on our shores, the Buffleheads. A most striking of winter residents (and feisty, too), the male is sharply feathered in black and white, with iridescent purple and green head feathers. The Buffleheads will be here through the winter, with most departing in early spring.

The name Bufflehead is derived from the name Buffalo-head, and they are so named because of the male’s puffy-shaped head. Another common name for this diminutive diver is Butterball.

The male’s head feathers are shaded with a beautiful rainbow sheen, while the female is a much plainer sort.

While having lunch with my daughter I contemplated ordering a side of just the buttery breadcrumbs to go with the baked haddock.  Is that keto?😂
