Meg and I had a more active weekend than usual this weekend past, in part because we've long had lots of "oh, we'll do that this summer" plans and finally this has been a weekend with passable weather where I've not been at work.( Moonrise Kingdom and American Football. )

( Discussion of betting on long shots, including Doctor Who, the longest shot of them all. )
