I reckon I'll be a busy, busy beaver this week. My coworker had his first child this past weekend, so I'll be taking on some of his duties. Plus there's a hill o' extra other work to do. Score! And since I said I'm a busy beaver this week, any picture of me will be a gratuitous beaver shot!

Woke up this morning to the news of a lengthy car chase that went from South Sac to Ione, Jackson then towards Stockton. I guess they finally caught him. The KCRA helicopter was chasing it from the air the whole time, cluing sheriffs where he was going. It was raining, and the guy was driving an Isuzu Trooper. It's a wonder he didn't kill anyone.

Interesting local event, however.

According to Clear Channel entertainment, Sarah Mclachlan is coming to Sacramento's Echo(Arco) Arena on July 7th. Anyone want to go? Of course, my challenge will be getting tix. They go on sale at 10am on Saturday, and I'm scheduled to pick my mother up from the car repair shop then.

I just saw this article in Yahoo! news:

It discusses some fellow who acquired rights to the Moon and our other 8 planets.

I saw a news bit today talking about how much cheaper Walmart is compared to Target. I can't help wondering if that has to do with the low wages they pay their employees...and perhaps them encouraging their employees to get government assistance?
