Judy Robinson e-mailed from Honey Grove to identify yesterday's woodpecker as a male downy . . . Our thanks to J.C., Harrisburg Locksmith, for the new key to our garden gate . . . Comcast (Xfinity) finally came to repair the lead-in to our television sets uptown. Nothing like watching a football game and losing the picture just as the winning field goal is winging toward the uprights. We suffered through this constant "flicker" on several channels for most of the playoff games before getting serviced. Learned from the repairman that a squirrel had been gnawing on the wire . . . We have all heard the expression Suppose you gave a party and no one came. Daddy Eric must have felt that way when he took the kids to Barnes & Noble to read them the latest books. I guess the empty chairs constitute a review of the most recent literature or his presentation thereof. What is a parent to do? . . .
