or foul up if you prefer.
The home page for my provider has gone for the lowest common denominator. Lot's of click bait. Ads disguised as news articles. Today there is a headline saying roughly "Colorado woman adopts two children; learns who they really are two months later." I didn't click and find out for sure, but I think I can guess. Less likely surprising possibilities:
a. Trump voters.
b. Hari-Krishnas.
c. University of Kansas fans.
d. Hill billies.
e. Endangered Orangutans.
Tucson began a trial of electric scooter rentals yesterday. They are forbidden here from the one place where I would think they might have been really popular: the University of Arizona campus. They had them for a trial where I used to live near Phoenix. I saw exactly one of them being used there. Parents were showing a girl how to ride, with a helmet and all. Mostly I saw them lying around, either where the company or riders left them. They were removed at the end of the trial. There are more bike lanes and bike riders on major streets here in Tucson, but people here tend to be cheap and a second-hand bicycle would be a lot more economical than convenience scooters.
I saw a coyote once in the many years I lived near Phoenix. I saw one yesterday trotting calmly across a quiet stretch of a major street. Several nights I've heard coyotes howling to each other. In Phoenix neighbors warned each other to keep their small pets in if they saw a coyote. Here, I suppose it's a given.
