Weekend is here

Good morning:

Saturday morning here, and raining again.

I am now reading The Emperor of All Maladies: A Biography of Cancer. This book is so interesting, much more interesting than I thought initially. Cancer got its name in the 17th century when doctors then saw tumors that looked like crabs, with legs sticking out. Crabs and cancer? Look into the sky to see the constellation there, called Cancer.

I will be reading most of the day here with breaks to watch some BookTV on C-Span 2.

There is an estate sale today, but I doubt if I will go it. Not interested in sales this time of year; I can wait until the spring to start going to garage sales again.

Have a great weekend.

Steve
