I have done the double checks on all of the luggage, charged all of the gadgets, made photocopies of all the paperwork, and now I'm pretty sure it's all good to go! The temperature here in Boise is supposed to get to 98 degrees today, so why not head some place where you can add some humidity! I will do my best to keep you all up to date on the journey.

What Makes Us Happy?
Is there a formula—some mix of love, work, and psychological adaptation—for a good life? For 72 years, researchers at Harvard have been examining this question, following 268 men who entered college in the late 1930s through war, career, marriage and divorce, parenthood and grandparenthood, and old age. Here, for the first time, a journalist gains access to the archive of one of the most comprehensive longitudinal studies in history. Its contents, as much literature as science, offer profound insight into the human condition—and into the brilliant, complex mind of the study’s longtime director, George Vaillant.

The Rodenator!
Deb and I have just gotten back from a viewing of the Rodenator in action, and I can tell you it has restored my faith in America! The boom and the concussion are amazing. Flame and debris blowing out of holes feet away. I will be using this fine piece of equipment in the near future as the destructive wall of whistle pig holes creeps in from the back of the house. We heard the booms and headed over to the neighbor's house to watch the owner covered with grass and dirt grinning from ear to ear! "Boom!!!" You can feel the thump through the ground. "BOOM!!!" He says that he hopes it works... but even if it doesn't it was worth it! As we are leaving other neighbors are walking into his yard with the same look I have... "I wanna be a redneck and blow up rodents TOO!"
