Native American pot. “B” shot on the photoblog.
NY Times: P.S.A. prostate screening is inaccurate and a waste of money.
“Last year, The New England Journal of Medicine published results from the two largest studies of the screening procedure, one in Europe and one in the United States. The results from the American study show that over a period of 7 to 10 years, screening did not reduce the death rate in men 55 and over.” [Note: I always keep an eye on prostate issues because we believe my grandfather died of prostate cancer. We can’t be sure, but I believe in ‘safe’ over ‘sorry.’]
Not that it’s newsworthy …
but we received more snow last night. Everything had nicely melted, only a couple of small piles were left. Damn. When is this winter going to end?

Two shots of Sandra; one on Flickr, one on the photoblog. Shameless plug for a friend: Felted flower courtesy of JW Handmade.

Jemez Mountains range in storm. [If you’re a Flickr contact, you can view it at 1600px. Sorry for the Flickr filter folks, but this way I can keep a control on who gets access to my images. I used to post large images all the time, but illicit use and theft have prevented such good-natured shares. I’m working on other options in the meantime, because like today, some need to be viewed large.] “B" shot on the photoblog shows off my beard growth.

Sandra, winding yarn. “B" shot shows some calm in the midst of our recent violent storms. This crazy hailstorm hit fast, hard, devastatingly ... luckily only pea-sized hail. Carlsbad’s apparently getting the same thing, only with golf-ball size hail. Best of luck, you all down south!
Another shot from yesterday.
Heading west on Palace Ave, across from Cathedral Park.

Santa Fe Railyard, on a Saturday night. “B" shot is the St. Francis Basilica, over on the photoblog.
Dawn.

Yeah well, it’s Friday. I’m allowed. “B" shot on the photoblog required my pants to be on the ground.
What in blue blazes
am I going to take a picture of today for my 365 thing? No idea.
Well, phooey.
I had a slew of links ready in tabs in my browser to post, and then closed the durn thing. More linkage later. Fridays are always slow days for the old blog here anyway.
Epiphany.
I realize the one thing I’ve never put in my glovebox, is a pair of gloves.

These are my guys, my dudes, my homies. They’re on a utility box just down the street. Been meaning to photograph them for a while now. “B" shot on photoblog shows the view on a lunchtime walk in my neighborhood. You’ll see the Jemez Mtns off in the distance.
SF New Mexican: New Mexico lawmakers OK tax increases.
“Lawmakers sent the governor a measure that will generate more than $200 million by raising several taxes. Included is a one-eighth cent increase in the state’s 5 percent gross-receipts tax on goods and services. New Mexicans also will resume paying a tax on food, which will average about 2 percent statewide. Pending in the Senate was a proposed 75-cents-a-pack increase in the cigarette tax to raise $33 million, and measures to finance capital improvement projects.” Incumbents who voted for this are going to be nonstarters in the next election, once the food tax hits the streets.

Thought y’all would like to see what an unremarkable sunset looks like in Santa Fe. No “B” shot today; didn’t have time or opportunity.
NewDandyism: Hawaiian Print BD Shirts.
I think I need me one of these.
Juniper’s smoking already.
It’s gonna be a bad allergy season. I’ve got such a headache ...
This evening’s sunset …

Snow in my plum tree this morning. I like this shot for the out-of-focus bokeh in the background, better viewed large [if you’re a Flickr contact of mine]. “B" shot on the photoblog is a similar shot.
What’s big and red, and eats rocks?
A big, red rock eater. This gives me an excuse to let you go press the button.

Gourd pot, handmade by my Aunt, Elizabeth Pullman. “B" shot on the photoblog shows a bit of my recent ear-lowering.
Morning meetings.
Tootle along elsewhere; I’ll be linking about noontime MST.
Storms this afternoon.

Went downtown, ended up getting snowed on (graupelled on). No stickage, at least while I was walking around. Great place to find boots, BTW. On Marcy Street. “B" shot on photoblog.
