Hair today...gone tomorrow

Well, I recently terminated my experiment with letting my hair grow and am now back to "Scooter" (pixi-short hair). Whew! What a relief! Jeff rejoiced. Hairdresser wondered what took me so long.

Book Review: Aftermath, Inc.

Aftermath, Inc.: Cleaning Up After CSI Goes Home, by Gil Reavill, is not for the faint of heart or the weak-stomached. Reavill, who is a crime story writer for Maxim, decided to do a story about a real-life company who does “bioremediation”; that is, clean-up and removal of the biological mess of violent crimes, suicides, long-unnoticed natural deaths. High Ick Factor but the story is told with humor, respect for those who do this work, and a good dose of self-deprecation (Reavill has a very weak stomach). Although the author strays a bit in his narrative at times, he tells an engrossing (heh) and edifying tale.
