Today, August 3, is Clifford D. Simak’s birthday. Simak (1904-1988) is a favorite in these here parts. It’s been a long day, It’s late, and I’m tired. I’ll raise a glass in his memory shortly, but I’m not going to do a full post tonight. The computer keeps freezing up for a few seconds at a time, and I don’t have the patience to reboot it.

I’ve got a post in mind and will get it up in a few days.
