It&#8217;s hardly recognizable. I celebrated at the end of the day with a bottle of wine, a slice of chocolate cake and the Vice Presidential debate. Claudia and I could only stomach about thirty minutes worth as Hillary&#8217;s running mate began by mimicking Trump&#8217;s constant interruptions. &#8216;Governor Pence took it all in with good humor. Judging by the full debate&#8217;s reviews this morning Caine did what he was supposed to and the fact checking mostly leans in his favor. <\/p>\n<p>Instead of politics we watched another episode of an Australian\/New Zealand series called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt4380324\/\">800 words<\/a>. We are both smitten with the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.merriam-webster.com\/dictionary\/antipode\">Antipodes<\/a>. Its a charming series about a family that moves from Australia to the &#8220;Arse of the World&#8221; to escape from gloom and tragedy. You can see it on the British site &#8220;Acorn.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>And old neighbor reposted this to Facebook.
