A Daily Commute

I'm staying a house only about 10 miles from the drilling rig, but the commute is brutal. About three miles of the trip is on state roads, the rest is on private roads up in The Geysers. Its all well and good until you meet a tractor trailer coming down the hill.











For icing on the cake (OK, icing like on a Scheißekuchen, nothing like the icing on Janiece Murphy's cake).

The Geysers, in Haiku

Suvrat Kher started a geology haiku meme, so I had to put in my $0.02

Franciscan mélange
Free energy to produce
Mesozoic rocks


Steam from the ground abundant
Turbines spinning true to form
Heat source age debates



Holocene’s winter’s cold
Cloud factories issuance
Money drives it all

Come on
You, you got, you got
You got what I want

Only you, baby, only you
Only you, you, you, you, you
