The Daily Parker

It took me a little bit this morning to get back into things, but once I figured out what my notes meant I managed to finish two whole features today. And I still had time to check these out:

• Marine biologists think they've figured out why octopus punch fish in the face.
• Amtrak will start Chicago to Miami service on November 10th, in part to reduce congestion on the Northeast Corridor during a construction project.
• The Campaign for Real Ale (Camra) is for some reason opposed to changing the standard English beer pour from an Imperial pint (591 mL) to a 2/3 pour (349 mL).

That's it. Just three stories. I really didn't have time to read much else. But I did have time to give Cassie some pats, which I will resume doing in just a few minutes.
