On YouTube: "Making History: Saddleback College"



     Recently (see Ripping Yarns and More Ripping Yarns), we posted excerpts from the book, produced by Saddleback College faculty in 2001, called "Making History: Saddleback College." Evidently, a movie corresponding to the book was posted on YouTube on July 1. (That's it above.)
     It's been viewed 11 times!
     It's about an hour and 15 minutes long.
     I see that the college now has a Saddleback College History website. It is somewhat incomplete.
     As you know, Ana María Cobos and others have been working on an update to the aforementioned book. The products of that effort will be made available in August (during Flex Week).

Teddy update

     Things have gone well with Teddy the cat. He's still pretty skittish when I'm standing or walking. When I sit upon the ground and invite him to me, he comes, plays, like a kitten.
     But he's also more comfortable around the house. He seems to play by himself in the night, knocking things over, goofing around. (It turns out, he's closer to 12 pounds. I checked his health records.)
     Kathie visited yesterday, and that went well. Annie just visited, and she and Teddy seem to have become fast friends. I do think he prefers women to men.
     My folks have Bugsy; my sister has TigerAnn. Now I've got Teddy Boy.
     It amazes me how utterly different these three creatures are. And each one is lovable.
