Hugs and tears all around

Kate drew her last breath at 10:57 this morning.
No one has ever had more loving people to spend their last hours with.

Are microbes God?

Classical characteristics attributed to God
Omnipresent; God is everywhere
If we define space as it relates to life as the biosphere, certainly everywhere there is life there are microbes.

Omniscient; God knows everything
Within the biosphere, microbes are the first to know just about anything. Certainly they know when a sparrow dies.

Timeless; Always was, always will be.
The extent of time as it relates to the biosphere started with microbes and will end with microbes long after "higher" life forms are gone.

Lives within you
90% of the cells in your body are not yours, they are microbes.
In some ways our bodies are vehicles designed to serve microbes. We are their cities.

So, have a little respect for the bacteria and fungi and viruses.
"What you do for the least of us, you do for me."

Birthday present

Last night as Lynn and bigdog went for a swim, they suprised a skunk.
Now it is bath time at the beach.
