By sheer chance I saw someone asking about a pickled red cabbage recipe. I don't have one, but it made me dig up my cooked red cabbage recipe...so delicious. Also reminded me of which I need to revisit more often.
I've been wracking my brain today, in the background, over this Mexican ship situation. It initially made no sense at all how this could happen, my thinking was that something would gel in my mind and some semblance of a reason would congeal. But no. It makes less sense now than before. The only possible things that I can figure is that the captain simply didn't know the height difference, or the tug operator didn't if it was being hauled, or it was on purpose by someone. Any of those options are horrible. The only possible "accident" theory I can image, though I can't believe it, is that it was being towed and wind/tide pushed and pulled it. The "didn't know" and "accident" theories seem unbelievable to me. Am I missing another option?
Listened to a sermon titled "Jesus Wins" this am. It was about the book Revelation. I'd heard that two word summary of Revelation before, but today it reminded me of another short Bible book summary: Jesus is better, as a summary for the book of Hebrews. I thought...I should come up with a few-word summary for each book. It would be a good exercise for me, and a real test! I could easily have AI do it, but muscles don't strengthen by having AI do the lifting. I'll make my few-word summary a summer goal.
The annual, manual, pen and paper summer calendar is taking shape. Always feel FOMO if I don't plan it out. ![calendar.jpg](image)
I don't know about other folks, but this time of the year I get a nagging urge to draw up a calendar for the summer...an actual, pen and paper calendar. For some reason I feel the need to plan things out to get the most out of the summer days. I don't get this feeling any other time of the year, but I'm about to get out paper right now.
I'm not a fan of the language they use (I get it, humor, but still), however I'm a big fan of what these websites are all about: - Original: - One that popped up lately: I'm so much of a fan that I made my own version and one which I actually use fairly often as a framework to display simple pages like my "home page": - my version: - my home page:

Of my 4 Preakness picks, 3 were the top 3 finishers. Funny thing is, I said that if I was to bet, it would have been on Pay Billy who finished 7th! Even picking the top 3, I still would have lost! Proof of picks:
Umm, questions on the Mexican ship: - Why is the ship lit light a Christmas tree with a giant national flag? - Why is it seemingly going backwards under the bridge? - How do you not know the height of the masts and bridge clearance? - Though a sailing ship, sails were furled, so was it powering itself or was that a tug boat pulling it? - Are you serious?
