At first look

 One can wonder if they’re looking at a spotted sandpiper … or a solitary sandpiper. It helps the identification considerably though, if they’ll just stand right next to each other.

Jeb Bush is out

 He might have seemed like one of the sane ones, but then I remember he’s the guy who, while he was the governor of Florida, using his influence and the courts, kept Terri Schiavo’s body alive while she was brain-dead, for no medical reason, and prolonged everyone’s agony for another two years, for his own benefit. Heartless.

Follow-up on Conner and Ari

 They were the youngest kids at the Boulder Valley School District Science Fair Awards Ceremony.  They’re 6th graders.  Most were 8th graders.  Becky says they looked little. There were a dozen different categories; a dozen different schools.  Conner and Ari’s entry was in mathematics and computer science. They placed third in their category.  (First in their school.) No prize money.  They won admiration, ribbons, hugs, and dinner out with mom and dad.
