Oh God! What an image on a Sunday morning - when the house is completely empty and still except for the sound of the fridge. Eek - I'm rolling my shoulders over and over thinking of that image - thanks a lot!! :) Yes yes - that is the book. I heard the author on NPR a few weeks ago. It's one of those books I really want to read, but frankly, I'm a little afraid to read, if you know what I mean.

I'm not a baseball fan, but to see that Yankees pitcher with HD (high definition & heavy duty) widges all over his fat neck was bizarre...North Coast people I know call the bugs "Canadian soldiers." Apparently they only hatch in high heat. That was one strange infestation at the Jake. I believe the book you are referring to is The World Without Us by Alan Weisman: http://www.powells.com/biblio/0312347294?&PID=31231 It creeps me out to think that all that will be left of Columbus when we're gone is a gargantuan Christopher Columbus bronze statue.

I also just watched Lisa Renee's cute video of her trip to the UMIchigan game and everyone looks like they're at a July baseball event. Very very weird. Have you read or heard about that book re: if all people disappeared, what would happen to the Earth? Thanks for that, Bill.

It feels like Florida has come to me, only there is no beach in driving distance. I know some people call it globaloney. I think I'm eating a sandwich. And if it's globaloney, it's a double decker on wry. Hi Jill –
