Boston-

Sunday 77
Sometimes there is smoke and darkness in the middle of the day
Blood rain CAN happen and it’s not actually blood but it is red (it’s a fungus) (is that better?)
Raining fish happens all the time, at least once a year and sometimes it rains frogs or octopi in China
Spider rain in Argentina and Australia and Brazil
Raining cats and dogs came about because in London they used to get caught in the gutters and die and fall out when it was raining?
Charlie is on trip grants and you can be too
We need trip grants committee people (especially who are here during the summer)
Undergrads can get funded to go on trips if they plan and propose it
Examples are dog sledding and hiking part of the Appalachian trail
Schedule for proposals on Nuhoc website under trips
More weather
It rained meat in Kentucky (pork or bear) but it was maybe vulture puke
