David Koch Still on Wrong Side of River Styx After Refusing to Pay One-Cent Ferry Tax

Koch wants to change things:

“I don’t see why there needs to be a blanket fee for everybody when we could simply allow the market to determine a fair price,” said Koch, shivering over a small fire at the edge of the ancient river that separates the mortal world from the realm in which all human souls rest together in eternity, free from pain and worry. “I see a lot of profit to be made here.”

...Charon reportedly felt there had been a misunderstanding between himself and Koch.

“The coin is more like, you know, a metaphorical thing,” said Charon. “Giving up your worldly possessions so you can move into the afterlife on an equal footing with everyone else. That’s why we make it so cheap. I’m not sure if this guy really gets it.”

The Rainbow Bridge

While I was waiting yesterday evening with Blue the Dog in my vehicle in the driveway of VCA Mueller Veterinary Hospital, I started talking to a woman who was also waiting with her dog in her vehicle. Her dog appeared to be paralyzed. "Aren't dogs wonderful?" she said. "They love you so. I've had my son's dog for a lot of years now. This dog saw me through the alcoholism years, and so many other things. He's blind and deaf now, and isn't much company, but I love him so. The end is probably coming soon, and I'm trying to find the strength for that time."

I talked about putting down Bella the Dog in 2016, and the joy these days of having Jasper, a young dog. I suggested she think about a young dog when the time came.

Hospital staff came and took her dog in.

About an hour later, I saw her leave the hospital. She was stricken, choked with tears, and couldn't speak. The hammer had fallen so fast.

Hard To Find An Emergency Vet on Sunday Evening in Sacramento

Still peeved about last night. Friends Gabe and Eleanor went to Los Angeles again this last weekend, and again I was tapped to dogsit for their pets, Blue and Molly. They live in the general neighborhood of Florin and Highway 99 in South Sacramento.

On Sunday evening, we had just returned from a walk around the neighborhood. I let the dogs out into the back yard. The dogs ran to the north fence to bark at people on the other side - people transiting the pedestrian walkway that crosses over Highway 99, just like they've done a million times before. Except, this time, Blue returned with a limp. A pad on her right front foot had been sliced off entirely and the webbing between her little toe and the rest of the foot had been severed. And blood. Lots and lots of blood!

(Our working theory is that there was glass embedded somewhere in the back yard. A wannabe burglar had shattered a bedroom window just last month before being scared off by the alarm. Despite Gabe's cleanup, it's conceivable some glass remained undetected in the yard, and that's what Blue hit. We still haven't found the hazard.)

I called Gabe in LA. He suggested going to VCA Mueller Hospital, near Meadowview and Freeport. Several miles away. Quite a distance I thought, given the amount of bleeding occurring, but no places closer were bound to open on a Sunday evening, so I went.

Most VCA veterinary hospitals advertise that they are open 24 hours. This may be technically true, but it doesn't mean that they can accommodate you. I waited 1.5 hours for the emergency vet at VCA Mueller, only to learn that the vet had gone into surgery and wouldn't be available for 2 or 3 hours.

I had to find another vet. But you couldn't rely on the advertising. If 15 or 20 vets are advertising 24/7 services, how do you find the 1 or 2 places that are actually open? I had a bleeding dog. I didn't have time to call all the hospitals. The vet staff at Mueller said they'd help, but there was a shift change - they got distracted and stopped helping. An animal can bleed to death in the meantime. I threw up my hands and chose to go UC Davis, far from South Sacramento. The veterinary school there was staffed with vet students. More importantly, because they were located in a public university, I could count on the UC Davis vet hospital actually being open on a Sunday evening, unlike the privately-held VCA hospitals.

Later, I learned there there are apparently a few Sacramento-area vets open on a Sunday evening: maybe ones in Roseville, Rancho Cardova, and Folsom, on the far northern or eastern fringes of the Sacramento metropolitan area, where disposable incomes are higher and life is easier. We were in South Sacramento, where there was just one overworked vet in hours-long surgery, and thus unavailable to anyone. (And of course that applies to Elk Grove, Sacramento, and North Sacramento too. Close to a million people, and just one overworked vet.)

Finally, about 9 p.m., 3 hours after the bloodletting had started, Blue finally started getting medical care. She was released about 10:30 p.m., with a bandaged leg, some pain meds, and a Cone of Shame.

Evil Afoot

More frightening than any horror movie:

Posing for this photograph, the Trumps remove any last doubt about their dead-eyed cruelty and transactional view of life. Smiling emptily above this wounded little boy, whose life was shattered before he could take his first step, the president and his wife call to mind those famous safari photos taken by Trump’s sons, Eric and Don Jr. — in which they, like their father, smile brightly over the victims of their own heedless cruelty and violence. To Donald Trump, this baby is little more than a hunting trophy in his own brutal race war (which explains his triumphant thumbs up).

Injured, confused, squirming away from Melania’s brittle embrace, and straining toward what’s left of his family, Baby Paul now stands in for all the children — indeed, all human beings — who, like him, have been harmed and are being held against their will by a white supremacist president.

Don't Dally At The Hospital

I saw this sticker today in the Sutter Hospital parking garage, and posted it in the "Useless, Unsuccessful, and/or Unpopular Signage" Facebook Group with the comment: "Don't dally at the hospital." It turns out to be a very popular post: so far, 24 shares and 623 views. Apparently it was a well-recognized meme for people nostalgic for the 2007-2012 Internet - "Charlie the Unicorn." Who knew?

Last updated: August 10, 2019


Paranormal thriller, based upon the character and novel by Dean Koontz. A fry cook who can see dead people gets involved in a war of good vs. evil. Starring Willem Dafoe, Tim Robbins, Anton Yelchin, 50 Cent, Patton Oswalt, Addison Timlin, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Nico Tortorella, and Melissa Ordway. Filming locations: Albuquerque, Pecos, Plaza Cafe (Santa Fe), Rio en Medio (near Tesuque), Rio Rancho, Sandia Pueblo, Santa Fe, Winrock Mall (Albuquerque), Zia Pueblo.

https://www.filmedthere.com/odd-thomas.html
The scenes below are of the town square where Odd Thomas works. The actual location is the Santa Fe, Plaza. The address is 63 Lincoln Ave, Santa Fe, NM. 87501. The Plaza Cafe is the actual location used for the restaurant. The apartment that Stormy lives in is also located in the plaza.

From imdb:

Plaza Cafe Downtown - 54 Lincoln Ave., Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA
(Pico Mundo Grille)
Winrock Mall - 155 Winrock Center, Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA
(Facade of Green Moon Mall; parking lot of mall; ice cream shop)
Garson Studios, College of Santa Fe - 1600 Saint Michaels Drive, Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA
Saint Anthonys Catholic Church, Pecos, New Mexico, USA
(St. Barts/belfry)

https://santafe.com/blogs/read/odd-thomas-visits-the-city-different
The production used a lot of recognizable locations. Prominent is the “Pico Mundo Café,” really the Plaza Café, closed at the time because of its kitchen fire, but briefly reopened as a movie set. Likewise, the company resuscitated the shuttered Silva Lanes to sub as “Green Moon Bowling,” and a refurbished room at the old St. Vincent’s Hospital, amidst its transformation into the Drury Hotel, was Odd’s abode. Out of town, the church in Rio en Medio became “St. Bart’s,” and Cottonwood Mall in Albuquerque was morphed into “Green Moon Mall.” There’s also a predictably spooky sequence in Old Main at the State Pen.

Greed, the Pebble Mine, and Bristol Bay

Development decisions are now being made purely based on greed, with expertise put to the sword. Gold mining is immensely harmful and developing the Pebble Mine will be especially destructive, given that the world's greatest salmon run is based in Bristol Bay, as are a number of other fisheries and whale feeding grounds:

The Environmental Protection Agency told staff scientists that it was no longer opposing a controversial Alaska mining project that could devastate one of the world's most valuable wild salmon fisheries just one day after President Trump met with Alaska's governor, CNN has learned.

The EPA publicly announced the reversal July 30, but EPA staff sources tell CNN that they were informed of the decision a month earlier, during a hastily arranged video conference after Trump's meeting with Gov. Mike Dunleavy. The governor, a supporter of the project, emerged from that meeting saying the president assured him that he's "doing everything he can to work with us on our mining concerns."

The news came as a "total shock" to some top EPA scientists who were planning to oppose the project on environmental grounds, according to sources. Those sources asked to remain anonymous for fear of retribution.

The copper-and-gold mine planned near Bristol Bay, Alaska, known as Pebble Mine, was blocked by the Obama administration's EPA after scientists found that the mine would cause "complete loss of" the bay's fish habitat.

"Let Me In" - Are You A Vampire?

Some great films have been made in New Mexico in recent years.

"Let Me In" is a 2010 American-British romantic horror film written and directed by Matt Reeves and starring, among others, Chloë Grace Moretz. It is a remake of the 2008 Swedish film "Let the Right One In," based on the 2004 novel of the same title by John Ajvide Lindqvist, who also wrote the screenplay. The film tells the story of a bullied 12-year-old boy who develops a friendship with a female child vampire.

The film is set in Los Alamos in 1983, and filmed both there and in Albuquerque.
