It&#8217;s not what you&#8217;d call <em>topical</em>. But today I wish to report a rainbow on Catherine St.</p><p>I was in Bewawa at Catherine &#038; Bay, formerly OEM Express, getting a graphics card for my new computer. As soon as I stepped out I saw the rainbow. I stuck my head back in the store and said to the two guys in there, &#8220;You should see this rainbow!&#8221;</p><p>They smirked at me like I was a nut case.</p><p>&#8220;It&#8217;s really great,&#8221; I said, but I could see that they weren&#8217;t about to interrupt their important computer-parts-buying business just to go outside and look at a rainbow, so I dropped that and got out my camera instead.</p><p><img

It formed a complete semicircle, but I didn&#8217;t have a wide enough angle lens to get both ends at once. Here&#8217;s the best I could do.</p><p><img

Some of them were looking at the rainbow. They had big smiles on their faces. Others were looking down at their cell phones as usual.</p><p>That&#8217;s the end of my special news coverage of a rainbow on Catherine Street.</p><hr
