Here is something from our news this morning:
"Searchers Scour Kane'ohe For Snake
A slithery nuisance may be on the loose in Kane'ohe. Officials with the Agriculture Department said they are searching for a brownish-greenish snake 2 feet in length. They said they think it might be a Brown tree snake.
Personnel at the Marine Corpse base in Kane'ohe said a jogger spotted the snake at about 7:30 a.m. Wednesday morning. Base workers said they made an immediate search of the area but found no trace of what could be a highly invasive species.
Base workers said they called the Department of Agriculture Snake Interdiction Group. A total of 18 trained Brown tree snake investigators from the group scoured the base, but they too found nothing."

Most people may not realize it, but there are no snakes in Hawaii, so when one is found it becomes a major story. This particular snake isn't deadly, but has devastated the forests in Guam.
Just a little trivia news for your day. Have a great weekend.

"Fujifilm remains true to its heritage and to the acknowledged superior image quality delivered by professional photographic film products." -- Fuji Press Release An old Hasidic story says we should wear a coat with two pockets in order to receive God's message. In one pocket, the message is: "You are nothing but one of billions of grains of sand in the universe." In the other, the message is: "I made the universe just for you."
