Fifteen years ago today:
The 7 July 2005 London bombings, often referred to as 7/7, were a series of coordinated Islamic terrorist suicide attacks in London, England, that targeted commuters travelling on the city's public transport system during the morning rush hour.

Watched a good short movie on Amazon Prime, called London River, last night on people seeking missing relatives afterwards. Starred Brenda Blethyn (Vera, for Brit mystery buffs.)
Lots of timely references to scary black people and the painful tolerance by many whose lives included being discriminated against.
Also posted in Today in History thread in Daily Texan forum.

When I was there on Wednesday, a family of four wasn't wearing masks, but everyone else I saw was, except one lady who was holding a tissue up to her face while maneuvering her grocery cart .
Of course, this was before the Abbott's order.
Is Hamilton closed captioned on Netflix? We olds don't hear lyrics as well as we once did (ears blown out by being close to amps in the '60s.)
If not CC'd, any suggestions on available libretto?
I use a low end Honeywell wifi connected thermostat for a remote property. Worked well for us for about 7-8 years at less than $100. It is also programmable, but we don't use that feature. We leave AC off while not there, turn on while on the road to there.

Probably at HD and Amazon.
The trailer site was at Richard Moya park. I can't find the photos I took at the time, but here are some from the net.

Saw him in the early '70s at Gregory Gym. Opening act was the Youngbloods. I think a lot were there to see the Youngbloods, mostly college students. Smashing show. He had the whole place really rocking by the end of the set. Quite a contrast in bands. Glad I got to see him live.
Just finished the last of eight seasons of Still Game, a multiple UK award winning sitcom set in Glasgow, Scotland. Needs closed captions to help with translating some of the brogue, but very funny thirty minute episodes.
Drove up the beach from Beach Rd 1A to Sandcastle Drive on Wednesday PM. Not real crowded and only saw one group of more than six who were probably not family. Weekends might be bad for a while.
If she was older, she likely has all her passwords written down somewhere or a file with them. Or she only uses one or two. Is there someone she might have given passwords, financial info, etc. to? Everyone older should do this. Actually anyone can die unexpectedly anytime, so everyone should have some back up person/place.
