Linky Links

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

- VDH: How to commit Democratic Party suicide. They've revealed themselves to be nothing but slanderers and parasites but they can't change who they are.

- So when are we allowed to ask the Patrick Mahomes question? It is a discussion worth having.

- Peter Attia: Compounding effects of multiple metabolic conditions on cardiovascular health.

- Trump as Ghostbuster. The analogy works.

Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thought and observations.

Beginning to wonder if NFL has hired the same guys who investigated Richard Jewell to do the Deflategate investigation...  It's not about cheating NFL coaches - it's about hating Bill Belichick... Perspective - if you had a minute of silence for every person killed in the Holocaust - you'd have to be silent for 11 and a half years... Heh heh... With an all female Ghostbusters in the works could a 12 Angry (Wo)Men remake be next? Maybe with Jane Fonda taking her dad's old role (you know there's some putz in Hollywood who would think this was a good idea)...  Bill Hicks' 12 principles of comedy... On second thought - that volcano prank might have been a bit over the top... When Barack Obama took office he was boasting about being able to stop the oceans from rising. Too bad he was out of the country during this blizzard. Stopping the snow should have been a snap...

Harold Ramis

I grew up on Harold Ramis movies. Was a little too young for Animal House when it came out but later lived the fraternity life. Caddyshack, Stripes and Ghostbusters all bring back fond memories from my youth - and not just of the movies. Groundhog Day is one of my all-time favorites. Because I associated him with my youth I never though of him as getting old - never mind getting sick or dying. He will be and already is missed.

Here are some appreciations or interviews with Ramis worthy of note:

- Harold Ramis did not disappoint in person

- How Harold Ramis' movies stayed funny for decades

- Harold Ramis and Caddyshack
