June 26, 2018: To Bee or not to Bee?

“To Bee!“ to paraphrase a line spoken by the great Austrian and Trump needler Arnold Schwarzenegger. So, there’s an artist in Dublin who goes by the catchy moniker Buzzy Be. http://thecircular.org/street-art-in-dublin-follow-the-bees/

His work lives just down the street across from a Starbucks. About a block from where we are staying.

For a moment, The Fresno Bee’s Scoopy thought he could get in on that action, but I thought I‘d get arrested for busking without a license. Save the Bees! No really, save the Bees. @buzzy.be

It’s Monday in Ireland and the papers (yes, they still exist) are crying about how hot it’s going to be today. It might reach 80 degrees! Doesn’t Santa make deliveries in weather like this?

Dinner

We had dinner with our lovely family at Chez Max, a French restaurant just outside Dublin Castle. From the sounds of things, the French have a different word for almost everything.


By all accounts, the food was grand. I was drunk on the nectar of the gods. These Irish flowers are great. As Hippocrates said "Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food"


Note to self: Find out why the sky is still blue a 11 p.m.
