Anybody who knows me knows I'm a man of few words so finding enough of them to fill this space on a daily basis is quite a challenge. Wish me luck.
Later: I've been spending some time this afternoon adding photos where missing and doing some minor editing on the Journal. There should be a photo on all the journal entries from December 8th on. Have a look.

The SEEKING Circuit
This part of the brain starts firing when the animal sees a sign that food might be nearby but stops firing when the animal sees the actual food itself. The SEEKING circuit fires during the search for food, not during the final locating or eating of the food. It's the search that feels so good.
