...a U-Haul van is only 9.95$ per day.
Morning. Not so much spring but a promise in the gold sun spread like honey over tower and treetop and a yellow shimmer on the river so far today :)
Ironman blowing hot and cold like our weather :0

holidays affect the space time continuum in strange ways :)
I still suspect so. But I found my problem. After sleeping on it and looking with fresh eyes I noticed today that I had incorrectly modified this month's spreadsheet equations and had added instead of deducted my "Returned to Coin Box" summary value. (*blush*)
However, I still don't know where the original $5.05 excess came from. There must be something that I bought without a receipt and didn't enter. Seriously though, I have to do this or my money gets completely out of control. After 24 hours I find it very difficult to go over the events of the previous day unless something is written down or I have a thing in my hand to remind me of my daily adventures.
Complaint: I had an appointment at the local hospital to get a blood test yesterday at 9:06AM. I went there and of course the lab was closed being Labor Day. (I don't know why they call it "Labor Day", nobody does any work on "Labor Day"
) So, today I went back to the hospital lab for my test and just before they took my credit card she handed me a notice that was filled with insurance company gobbledygook. I asked if this was something new or just a standard handout. She said in few words what the three page document neatly obscured. The hospital was, as of September 1st, "out-of-network" for lab tests for that insurance company. Which meant that my cost was going way up! 
I cancelled the blood test, trudged back to my urologists office and was told that they also didn't honor my insurance company for that blood test. I finally was sent to a clinic about a half mile up the road and was pleased to discover that they were in-network but the cost was going to be $25 instead of the $13 that I used to have to pay at the hospital. But that's better than the $50 charged to the insurance company.
Doctors, Hospitals, Insurance, Drug companies & Lawyers. Bah, humbug.
I should have invested my fortune in "EpiPens" before the price skyrocketed. 
$$$$

I had to work on Labor Day as a lot of people wanted to go shopping and after they go shopping they want to eat in the food court.
A little less meh today. Whee.

staring at a bag of LavAzza, should i brew it?
do those electric percolators automatically know when to stop perking?
I'll do that with the wall sometimes in the evening.
yuk yuk unreadable go agead over? copy.
some database stuff to do. sds inventory of hazardous stuff, need to suit up hazmat style. or a nice set of disposable gloves.

are blackholes real or just a theory? has telescopes actually seen a blackhole?
reading the fine print, a lot of these are simulations or artist's visualizations.
if blackhole is the center of our galaxy. what are the galaxies spinning around.
something with the voice of Bill Shatner?
wuh oh
Black Hole Swallows a Star

They put me in this chair because I shredded their computer chair but I will show them who is boss. I better start scratching this chair asap!
Black holes are as real as atoms. Nobody's actually seen an atom nor a black hole. We've only seen how they affect other matter or energies around them. The matter or energies around an atom or a black hole behave exactly like we predict it would when encountering each type of object.
And yes, there are a lot of artists depictions of what a black hole would look like if you were close to it. But no, nobody has yet gotten a telescope image of the actual black hole or even the light distortions around it. HOWEVER, when you stop to think that even a supermassive black hole with the mass of a billion suns is predicted to be only about the size of one one really large star (1 or 2 million miles diameter) still, when seen from here on Earth is only a teeny, tiny, itsy, bitsy, microdot occupying only a couple of pixels on even the best of telescope images. then getting a completely recognizable picture is not likely for a few years.
Despite the fact that one can never even actually see the black hole itself because, well, it's black! We might be able to see the hot gases swirling around it screaming in X-Ray energies while falling to their doom. As shown in the images accompanying your post. What is easier though, much easier is being able to pick out a few nearby stars speeding around the black hole and calculating that the ONLY thing that could make those stars move at 10 million miles an hour is a freakin' huge black hole. This is exactly what's already been done by watching the center of our own galaxy.
The image below is one of the most scientifically accurate illustrations of what you would actually see if you were near a black hole, The "halo" over the top & bottom of the black circle is actually the back side of the ring of luminous gases orbiting the hole. The ring is actually flat but the gravity of the blackhole bends the light so much that from some angles and distances it appears to be flinging up over the top & bottom of the hole.
Note: and Yes, I know there are photos that claim to be pictures of atoms, but they're not actually atoms, they're images of the collective behavior of electrons or other miniscule energy particles near the boundaries of the atom averaged over time. They make nice predictable images of little BB's arranged in patterns showing where the atoms are, but it's not the atoms themselves.
Actually, getting a bit pedantic here, there's really nothing to see in an atom or a blackhole except how it affects other matter or energies. Kind of like people in a way, nothing there except how they affect the things around them.
And, "NO"! William Shatner is not at the center of the galaxy. Although some might wish he would go there.
But even then he's not nearly massive enough yet to form an effective galactic center.
Interesting YouTube video about the center of our galaxy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARicSMGm-kA

Black holes are just the pockets in a cosmic game of snooker . . .
Cinnamon is waiting for us to go home. Well to my home and her new home. She is adorable but there is something fishy about her.
Listen to this. It's addictive.
My grandparents were sharecroppers, so I can sing this song.
...if they ever do a remake (and we all know how Hollywood just loves remakes) of the film The Graduate, they will have to change the "one word" in the party scene from "Plastics" to "Pharmaceuticals".

My dinner was a bacon steak sandwich tonight.
Morning. Puffy white cotton-wool cloudlets drifting like fishing tinnies in an ocean of deep blue sky and warm so far this first week of Spring, tho looking at the forecasts good sailing aint going to last past tomorrow :)
looking lovely tho :)
Wait I need to release cinnamon into the community tank. She is still in her bag but in the aquarium.
Cinnamon is released into the twenty high community tank. She seems to be enjoying being out of that bag.
Is it true that Starbucks ice coffee has caffine? If so should I put my cup in the fridge or the freezer so I can get some sleep tonight?
You are on a roll.
Yes. :-) Putting the cup in the refrigerator does not work. You just take it right back out again.
