The Fog

I figured since it's big enough news to make the headlines on CNN that I'd post an image of the fog that rolled into Michigan today. That first driveway up on the right ours.

The past few days it had been nice and below freezing. Snow accumulated and driving to class meant hitting occasional patches of back tire slippage and fishtailing and all kinds of fun stuff I didn't get to do in Georgia. Today the temperature shot up near 50 degrees -- and the humidity just went nuts. It was really eerie outside. Silent. Thick. When I took this walk I was very conscious of any car approaching --- the only noise, it seemed, for miles.

In a nod to Monsieur: While I was outside meandering about looking for that Scooby-Doo owl or some other scary sight that matched up with my surroundings -- I kept reminding myself:

What you can't see won't hurt you... it'll kill you!
Lock your doors. Bolt your windows. There's something in THE FOG!
When the fog rolls in... the terror begins!
It is night. It is cold. It is coming.

H.P. Lovecraft would be proud.
Glad I taught you something.

all 3. It's a trilogy. I guess you could call it historic fiction.

It revolves around science, and the cataloging and prioritisation of information.

Newton, Liebnitz, Hooke, ...etc set during the age of enlightenment in England.

Good read. Long read.

the above is me Bill, referring to "The Baroque Cycle" by Neal Stephenson.
