Day 3.074: "No balls today" and other thoughts

Ricky Gervais said of the success of "The Office", "They may tune in for comedy, but they stay for Tim and Dawn."

Of course in the US version it's "Jim and Pam", but I think I know what he means - the comedy needs to make you laugh, but you also need a bit of a story that you can connect with.

Yesterday's post about the falls, was featured here over at local super-blog All Over Albany. They also posted a link to the post about the bridge yesterday on their What's up in the Neighborhood blog-post digest. All this has brought quite a few new readers to these pages. Of course I have no idea whether any of them will come back to see what else I write about, and it doesn't much matter. What I do know is that many of you keep coming back for the daily joy that is E5N1, so with no further delay - here is a a video that Exile #2 filmed earlier.



Incidentally, the picture at the top, was taken, not to show E5N1 outside in his pyjamas (that's becoming a daily ritual), but to show that Exile #4 chose to wear jeans today (I couldn't make myself type either 'pants' or 'trousers') - quite a significant event in our lives.

You may come for the waterfalls - but you stay for the singing.  Hopefully.
