FINALITY AND A LIFTING FOG

WAS HE REALLY CRAZY?
A couple of friends who worked in 
national security roles are convinced
that Moammar Ghadhafi was 
as they said "certifiably" crazy.
For years, they contend, some in the 
military and intelligence communities
operated on the assumption that he was. 
Others thought he was just another military
strongman, become tyrant, insisting on 
his demands, and was a loose canon.
I'm hopeful that key information will now
emerge as to what we really knew about his sanity.
He was an intriguing and volatile player.
His fate caught up with him.

Day Book
Ethereal Moments
In a tribute to the old line
"first you see it, now you don't."
The morning fog filtering away plays a 
kind of hide and seek.
 From the Estero bluff, Morro Rock and the power stacks
are barely seen.
 If you squint, you might see the stacks as phantoms
above the buoy. 
 And below, Hollister Peak seems to disappear.
See you down the trail.
