This post has nothing to do with mom, though it will probably post at least something more, perhaps tonight.
Although if anybody has suggestions of how to coach my dad not to say something stupid when I allow him to talk to mom tomorrow that would be a thing.
Mostly, I was very tickled by
this NPR article about experiments in whether vultures have a sense of smell. The visual of vultures being all over an oil painting but not noticing nearby meat amuses me greatly.
