I was doing a wander around town yesterday and saw a sudden seemingly overnight expansion on the already going on expansion of the Chinese restaurant. Someone had told me that the actual owner of the place, who I always thought was the family who runs it, is someone who owns 20 other restaurants around PR and as Blue at the Spot and Heathers were now spiffed up, they would follow suit. I have no idea about any facts to that, but it is an expansion that looks to almost triple the size of the place. I hope that doesn't mean tripling the prices, as, despite what many have said to me, I've never had any ill effects when I get a fried chicken craving.

I can't find anything comic about the ongoing carnage of a huge part of our country in the wake of Sandy. This FEMA article is chock full of responsible ways to donate to help out those in need. If you are in one of the many areas struck hard, there are also lists of places you can go to find out how you can physically get involved.

I've had this saved for a couple of weeks and it seems as good a time as any to include it now. This is a survival book, written in 1958, but perhaps not quite the sort you might expect. Mainly, I love the title, because we all come into life without an instruction booklet and must do the best we can. Some of us get better guidance at the start of our journey than others, some of us blunder along and learn the way by a lot of detours, dead ends and stubbed soul toes. And lots of us do both.

Have an (in)trepid Thursday. Do something (un)tangling.
