tracker7I started reading Gardner's second James Bond novel, For Special Services, this afternoon. Off to a pretty good start, kicking off with Bond and four SAS operatives preventing an airliner hijacking - SPECTRE reborn?
On my preferred route back to Louisville from Mom&Dad's, I pass through distillery country, down in Nelson County. Heaven Hill's one of the bigger sites, and, well, their products aren't always well-regarded. Not quite bottom-shelf, but the bottles probably wouldn't break if they fell. HH's workers went on strike over the weekend - the company is trying to impose a seven-on, two-off work schedule, cuts in benefits, some other things. So, go union, and go labor. One of the picket sites is along US150; good luck to them.
Ran some errands - new ignition key for the Mariner, a little shopping. Came home, decided to watch the best Batman movie, Mask of the Phantasm. So far, the graveyard scenes haven't kicked me in the gut.
