Housekeeping and other stuff

It’s Sunday and for the moment the smoke has cleared from the valley, thanks to those 3,500 amazing fire-fighters struggling with the Rocky Fire just fifty or so miles away.
But this morning it’s more about smoke and mirrors. I’m in the grip of a dilemma. I have an email list I use to send snippets of information, but it’s too long to send as a normal email, so I’m trying to use a commercial service called MailChimp. Now they say too many people on my list chose to unsubscribe. But I have had emails from people saying that they unsubscribed by accident and don’t know who to get back on again.
So can I ask you, if you read this message and want to be on my list, please send me an email to say so. Then I can put you on it. I only use it to tip you off that there’s something to read here, on this site, or maybe on FB. It’s totally non-commercial, just like me.  tsimon@mcn.org
Thanks.
Other stuff? Well, it’s not all about motorcycles, you know. I was thinking, as I sipped my margarita and watched my garden grow, that I have had a lot of ideas that will probably never come to anything, So I thought I would share them with you, one at a time.
Today’s brilliant idea: How about Yellow Shaving Foam – then when you look in the mirror, your teeth will look white. Who likes that one? I’ll take five per cent.
Cheers, and watch out for new earthshaking innovations.
