More stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- The financial origins of the United States.

- Bad Bunny and the SCOTUS precedent that denies Constitutional rights to Puerto Ricans. Knew they were considered US citizens but article does not mention that Puerto Ricans do not pay taxes.

- The hardest part of a task.

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- 10 books every high school (or college) student should read. Good list - I'd add the Almanack of Naval Ravikant and the Psychology of Money.

- Many NFL players had no idea who Bad Bunny was. 

- Valero pays $1.1 billion fee to leave California. Why anyone would remain there is beyond me.

- Super Bowl LX: How the Seahawks shut down the Patriots. Long but interesting autopsy of the Super Bowl.

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- Are Rome's attractions scarce goods? If people are paying for their time at attractions then they may feel less compelled to pick up after themselves or act with decorum (although good Catholics may feel guilty if they don't).

- Elon Musk says he will pay the legal fees of anyone who truthfully accuses Jeffrey Epstein or his clients of abuse.

- Did seem like more of a bug than a feature.

- Kid Rock from last night's Turning Point Show.

Bad Bunny and the Super Bowl Halftime Show

The NFL learns why there's no such thing as a free lunch.

Many NFL owners, who are Roger Goodells' bosses, have become more upset about the choice of Bad Bunny as the half-time entertainment. This disillusionment is being led by Patriots owner Robert Kraft, whose team will be participating in Sunday's Super Bowl. The halftime show was supposed to be something that adds to the big game not a distraction.

Have a new post up on Substack about the situation.
