in the air

When you flush the toilet on an airplane, does it all just go whooshing into the atmosphere? Does the doo doo (did just write that instead of shit?) and toilet paper and stuff just disintegrate? Does any of it make it down to the ground?

People would complain if crap started landing in trees and such, right? I mean, with all the air travel every day, that would be a lot of really nasty stuff (shit) flying around in our air, right?

Does anyone know what actually happens to it? Are airplanes basically just sky outhouses?

Finally found the new Tattered Cover Bookstore, but really found another great restaurant in Denver, Encore off Colfax.

All the pretty nachos

I'm not a big Tom Hanks fan ( I did love "Philadelphia"), but I thought this was very well done.

I decided against the nap and went out to find some more plants for the pond/fountain. I didn't find anything that looked good enough to join the fish, but did find a couple of other odd plants that felt like they belonged in the back.

I am powerless at a garden store

I didn't catch their name.

Live entertainment at Cafe Barone last night during dinner

Someone who is back in Germany was a little homesick earlier today when we spoke and I was telling him about the lilies that were springing up in the backyard. I promised to take a few pictures.

This is the first spring here in a new house, so it's always fun to see what comes up that's been lying dormant under the ground. The beautiful Kuan Yin faces did not just spring up from the ground however, but were bought a couple of weekends ago from a California artist selling her wares at a street fair in downtown Menlo Park. The potted herbs and various flowers were also intentional.

I took a few more and added them on Flickr.

This is a handy funny little video in case you're still wondering why some of us Voxers are here less than we used to be but still manage to eek out Twitter "micro posts" throughout the day.

If you want to follow me on Twitter, I'm pattym there.
