Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.
- Mike Rowe on the Star Spangled Banner. Given this parameter Rene Rancourt of the Bruins may be the gold standard.
- Douglas Murray: Will NYC fall for self-entitled Zohran Mamdani?
- Some history I didn't know or forgot (but shouldn't).
- Tulsi Gabbard punching back twice as hard on the Washington Post. Your move Jeff Bezos.

Flotsam and Jetsam
Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.
What fresh hell is this? Stayed at a big brand name hotel in Vermont the other night and was told there was no morning coffee. Was told the communal coffee stations would not be reopened until October. Bed and breakfasts from now on it is... Mike Rowe is the best... "If you must study for an exam, you will never really know the subject matter." - Nicholas Nassim Taleb... I too would like to publicly announce that I am launching a bid to buy the New York Mets. All the cool kids seem to be doing this so I thought I'd jump in too (with probably an equal chance at success)... Providence RI Mayor launches reparations process. "How much, what form, how long are all legitimate questions, but questions for another day. It's important to go step-by-step through this," said virtue signalling Mayor Elorza who just guaranteed Worcester remains the second largest city in New England by launching massive white flight from his city... In a surprise move Sesame Street announces a new progressive Muppet named Senor Gonorrhea to be introduced to warn children about the dangers of venereal disease... "The conscience is that part of the psyche which is soluble in alcohol." - William Ober...

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.
- I don't own a gun (yet) but I just have to say Mike Rowe's post on guns is awesome!
- Now I really want to try this booze
- Making sense of String Theory. The video is from 2005 - I wonder if the theory still holds up? Seems like all the cool kids are speaking about Quantum Physics these days.
- Fantastic true story of an American fugitive drug smuggler who became an environmental hero in Australia
- 12 fun facts about Slap Shot. Thank God they went with Paul Newman and not Al Pacino.

Flotsam and Jetsam
Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.
Heh heh - Rusty Cohle's OK Cupid dating profile. Funny if you're a fan of HBO's True Detective... Do they call it "Thunder Down Under" because the name "Shirtless White Guys" was already taken?... Big fan of Mike Rowe. Even bigger fan after reading this... Still say that CNN should replace Piers Morgan with Adam Carolla. I would watch that show... Wow - Sandra Bullock could make $70 million from Gravity... New England Church sign: Whoever is praying for snow - please stop!... Calvin and Hobbes creator Bill Watterson to publish first cartoon in 19 years. Not much of a cartoon but I'll take it!... Heh heh - Canadians and hockey... On this day in 1983 the final episode of MASH was aired. I was a big MASH fan but have never seen that final episode. Don't see the point of watching it now...
