Notes for July 8th

• Happy Birthday Sis!
• This isn't exactly a wonderfully fun story.  
• Squirrels are actually pretty interesting.  Although we typically think of invasive species as annoying and frustrating, there's something sorta amazing about a species that can be this successful.
• Humans where in Europe a lot longer than previously thought.  Or maybe just a lot earlier?
• I'm just going to repeat the title of this article and then gasp in terror:  "Gallbladder removed through mouth in new-" (stops to vomit, deep breath).  Ok, so actually that's probably a good thing, but judas monkeys!
