Head For The Hills
This geophysicist is predicting an earthquake will strike the Los Angeles area in early September. I'm curious to know how Angelenos are reacting to the news. Is there going to be an exodus from the city around that time? It would be pretty cool if we could predict earthquakes down to the specific date and time of their arrival. I'm imagining a whole fleet of buses driving people into the desert for one big slumber party and then returning the next day to clean up the mess.
Hearing about the recovery of Saint-Exupery's plane brought back memories of my high school French IV class. We read Le Petit Price and went to see a bilingual production of it at a local college. There were only nine or ten of us in the class and it was at the end of the day, so things were always very laid back. Our teacher had an atrocious accent, but I can still conjugate irregular verbs because of the endless drills he put us through
