Do you remember the uproar about those airport body scanners that showed details of the naked body? The TSA spent billions on them and insisted that we needed them to save the homeland.

It turns out now that they don't work. It was super-secret untested technology that is actually easy to fool. You can carry guns and explosives through them undetected.

I woke up this morning with what seems to be an inflamed ankle tendon, so I've dosed myself with naproxen and hobbled through my day. I picked another batch of tomatoes, maybe a little fewer than last time, which is fine. Canning tomatoes is so much work that I can barely keep up. I also processed and froze a couple quarts of eggplant.

This Japanese eggplant has a peppery flavor, and I've been making a pasta sauce with home-grown eggplant, tomatoes, garlic, oregano, and onions. I wish I had more eggplant, but it's the most demanding crop.
