I can’t tell, and that’s sort of my point…

One wonders about all this stress and strife…
(One wants [or SHOULD want to, anyway] to live the sporting life)
Leaving you with this

This is what the TransAmerica Pyramid Building looks like from the ground on a typically foggy day in the 415. At least the sky was mellow yesterday – it wasn’t all angry, Midwestern-style.
On days like yesterday, you can’t see the shining star on top, either the natural or the artificial. Oh well.
But at least they didn’t leave the lights on, blazing away on the depopulated floors.

And the nice thing about this free admission program is that it probably won’t be as crowded as it sometimes gets on the third Wednesday of the month, when everyone gets in sans tariff.
