Bad pic (it ran off before I could get a good one) but found an admirer on the side of the road.
(it was a residential neighborhood, assuming it was someone's outdoor cat)

I have no picture, so I guess it didn't happen.
Let me start by saying, I average about 13,000 miles a year on a bike and live in NY. So, I pretty much have seen everything. From knife fights to nude sunbathers. But...
Today I saw a woman jogging, topless. A first for me.

and we have plenty of the assembled wind turbines here, scattered through the corn fields. In addition to reducing the amount of coal burned at the local power plant, I like to think that the wind turbines are improving my life by blocking some of the wind, especially during windy bike rides in the fall and spring.

Dr Joe Early played by Bobby Troupe
Dixie was played by Julie London- Julie London was an accomplished jazz singer- a slew of hit records in the 50s and 60s. She was married to Bobby Troupe.
Then there was the guy with the moustache- played by the guy with a moustache that wasn’t Gene Shallit.
And, of course, Dr Brackett- back from when you could accept authoritative medical advice from a 3 pack a day smoker.
