Early bird gets to see the horsies. Lousy camera phone, but lovely moment with birdsong and a gentle predawn sky in the park. (And the fire is out, no worries!)

@MLClark When circumstances permit, I go out before sunrise, but I learned the hard way to carry pepper spray with me. Some loon ambushed me one morning in the park, claiming I'd stolen his bicycle. I now have pepper spray on my belt in case anyone wants to "dance."

@WordsmithFL

πŸ˜‚ And here you were the other day saying that you don't have any "moves"!

@MLClark My "move" was to fall back on my old police "command presence" voice. I threw in lots of curse words, got right up in his face, told him to f*** off or I'd call the cops, and rode off.

He was middle-aged and a bit confused. I don't think that would work with someone in their prime.

Either way, until I can carry a pocket phaser set on stun, I have the pepper spray.

@WordsmithFL

The things we have to do because we haven't mastered the Vulcan nerve pinch!

Glad you're moving as safely as you can through our weird old world.

@MLClark I'd prefer the Vulcan death grip.

"There's no such thing as a Vulcan death grip."

Ah, but the Romulans don't know that. πŸ˜‰
