It wasn't me. You can't prove anything.

Lunch conversation

Sports
One among us is a huge baseball fan. I have known him for a long time and he has always liked baseball. He has a ticket to one of the playoff games. All went on for time at length over baseball, pasts and future. Will the Astros make good?
It seems several of our number had visiting family. I’m not sure if this is a sign of our average age or if there is something about the weather.

Video games
Some stupid video game. Jennie and I stared out the window. Our passive aggressive approach worked and the subject magically switched tracks.

Art
Adam mentioned our visit to the art gallery this weekend and the fact he was worried about us being mistaken for a gay couple. I figure we are not a gay couple so who cares. It might make those folks talk to us more openly. Nuclear fallout and radiation I don’t remember how we got on the subject, but Fukushima and Chernobyl both were cited before someone diverted the conversation before I could tell an interesting anecdote of how both cities are left more or less undisturbed covered in radioactive dust.

Caverns
One of us has vowed to never visit caverns in Texas again. They worry their visage appears on a wanted poster in the main office of one or more locations because of a youthful unpleasantness.

Level of anger in life
One of us has a goal of low anger in life. Another has a goal of zero anger in life. He acknowledges that this will not happen, but he aims for it regardless. I like the idea, but I know I am an angry person. This part of the conversation made me think about myself and how I might make myself a better person.
