Mushroom Soup Wednesday

I saw my surgeon yesterday about my new knee. The good news is that it's healing rapidly, way better than the norm. The bad news is that my lower leg is swollen due, I guess, to stuff from the knee draining downwards. He put a thing called a "gel cast" on my lower leg and ordered me to spend more time flat on my back, less time sitting at the computer for the next few days. I need to devote my computer time to an assignment so there may not be much opportunity for blogging through Friday when the gel cast comes off. Presumably, when it does, my leg will be in great shape.

Not much else to say about the debate. Everyone who doesn't seem to have a favorite candidate in the race thinks Hillary "won" by a handy margin and folks like Jonathan Chait believe she solidified her position as front-runner in a way that may keep Joe Biden out. Between Clinton, Sanders and Biden, I don't have a huge preference. I also wish that someday, we'd have presidential debates that are real debates instead of these little dueling 30-second sound bites.

I will be back when I can be back. And thanks to all who've sent good wishes for a speedy recovery. I think I'm having one. In the meantime, I get to use up more of these soup can graphics I made up. I have dozens of 'em.
