First on my Mind

Nights are Getting Warmer
Summer won’t be long
Down the end of this street
Still listening to the same old song and
I don’t know if you live here
Wouldn’t know your car
But I come back here year
So don’t tell me I don’t scar

No matter where I go
You’ll always be with me
Though we’ll never again
Be side by side
As I travel this world
I’m gonna need a friend
You’ll always be the
First on my mind
I’ve got money
And my own fast car
It’s got a loud radio
Tells me I’ve come far
Yeah I’ve come far
Back to these same old streets
Just to hang around
So by chance we might meet

No matter where I go
You’ll always be with me
Though we’ll never again
Be side by side
As I travel this world
I’m gonna need a friend
You’ll always be the
First on my mind
Solos

And I can’t bear it
When others speak your name
I want to run and hide
Surely they can see the pain
It’s a wholly pointless existence
Living here without you
I’ve done so much
There’s just so much I wanna tell you


No matter where I go
You’ll always be with me
Though we’ll never again
Be side by side
As I travel this world
I’m gonna need a friend
You’ll always be the
First on my mind
Nights are getting colder
No, winter’s won’t be long
Still down the end of this street
Listening to the same old songs and
I don’t know if you live here
Don’t even know if you’ve got a car
But I’ll come back here year
So please don't tell me I don’t scarr


No matter where I go
You’ll always be with me
Though we’ll never again
Be side by side
As I travel this world
I’m gonna need a friend
You’ll always be the
First on my mind
First on my mind x 3

A Late-Night Jolt: The Bay Area’s Latest Reminder

Image
Note: AI was used to create the images and clean up some off my notoriously long run on setences, with many - and I do mean many - asides,.😊😊😊 -------------------------------------------------- At 1:40 AM PDT on April 2nd, the Bay Area received a sudden wake-up call. A 4.6 Mw earthquake centered near Boulder Creek, about 48 miles southeast of San Francisco—shook the region, with reports on the USGS "Did You Feel It?" map spanning from the Golden Gate down to Monterey 1. While a 4.6 isn't exactly a "Big One" on the scale of 1906 or 1989, it’s certainly more than a minor tremor. It originated within the San Andreas Fault system, perhaps the most famous transform boundary in the world, where the Pacific and North American plates relentlessly grind past one another. Why This One Felt More Personal For many, this was just another Northern California quirk, but for me, it triggered two specific points of interest: The San Ramon Connection: It strikes while the w...

Tibia Trivia

Image
The ankle is a joint where the foot meets the leg. It consists of the bones of the leg - the fibula and its larger neighbour the tibia - and the top foot bone part called the talus. The fibula and tibia run between the knee and the ankle. If you were to cause a fracture to the one of these bones anywhere from the knee to about three quarters down, you would be considered as having broken a leg. If the break, in either or both of these fine bones, happens in the general area of the top of the foot then you have broken your ankle. To break either the fibula or tibia is bad, to break both is worse. This is a picture of a clearly broken fibula and, less obviously broken tibia (it is two images of the same foot). The bones in the X-ray belong to my wife and that is why I now know more about the bone structure of the lower extremities than I did last Friday morning. Those same bones are also the reason I did not post a blog last week. We were attending the wedding of some good friends out at...

The Real Heavyweight: Why Cascadia is the True Pacific Northwest Powder Keg Note: AI was used to create the images, locate some sources and clean up some of my grammar In my previous piece on the Hayward and Calaveras faults , we looked at the "subterranean handshake" happening beneath the East Bay. We talked about how those two faults connecting could turn a scary earthquake into a major disaster. But if the Hayward is a local threat, the Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) is the regional heavyweight champion—and it’s a much bigger powder keg. While the Hayward fault is a "strike-slip" fault (plates sliding past each other horizontally), Cascadia is a megathrust fault. This is where the Earth gets truly violent. What is Cascadia? The Cascadia Subduction Zone is a 700-mile-long monster lurking about 70–100 miles offshore, stretching from Northern California all the way up to British Columbia. Unlike the Hayward, where the plates are side-by-side, Cascadia is a subduc...
