Mold Dog

Mold and particles in the air are having profound effect on our quality of life. Deemed “Sick Building Syndrome,” testing companies are sprouting up all over in order to test the air, much like asbestos abatement contractors 20 years ago. To set yourself apart, you have to be different; thus the mold sniffing dog named Savannah – certified by the State of California. For some reason, when they refer to Savannah as “Mold Dog,” I have to laugh.

Terror Threat

This post appeared in a previous blog and is here for posterity’s sake.

Well, looks like my subway ride will be fun:

New York authorities stepped up security across the city on Thursday after what officials described as a specific and credible threat of a terrorist attack on the subway system in the coming days.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg said the FBI had alerted him to “a specific threat to our subway system,” which had come from overseas but had already been partially thwarted, while some officials cast doubt on the credibility of the threat.

This is so much damned if you do, damed if you don’t. I have to ride the subway (or take the bus), so here’s to hoping that the NYPD and the Feds kick some butt.
