Flotsam and Jetsam
Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.
Just a heads up but if you're thinking of pranking a friend tomorrow by telling them the governor ordered the liquor stores closed - that's not a funny April Fool's joke - it just means you're an ass... This is one of the most touching things I've read since the start of the crisis... Guessing that the number of international communities looking to be Wuhan's "Sister City" is not a very long list these days... Heh Heh... Hopefully a silver lining to this situation will be that "close-talkers" are finally going to get the message to back their ass out of our personal space... Speaking of pranks - pretty sure nobody would do this today... PornHun would be a good name for a Ghenghis Khan sex fetishist website... "The real act of discovery consists not in finding new lands, but in seeing with new eyes." - Marcel Proust...

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.
- How to Win: 4 steps to achieve greatness (actually 5 steps and the 5th is vitally important)
- A story that's supposed to be about Jeffrey Epstein, blackmail and a "hot list" of men caught on camera in compromising situations. Instead the story is a behinds the scenes look at how sleazy high-priced lawyers can be.
- Intermittent Fasting - an update from Harvard Medical
- This is HUGE news but it seems to be getting little attention - US posts first month as net petroleum exporter in 70-years! Being energy independent and a robust economy are heavily intertwined.

Flotsam and Jetsam
Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.
Bill Weld announced he was going to primary against President Trump as a Republican in an effort to raise Weld's profile. How's that working out?... Can't believe the number of people in the media who fell for the guy eating "mayo" from a jug. That's one of the oldest pranks. Wiling to bet good money that the guy was actually eating vanilla pudding... How to improve your social skills... Firmly believe that the last 20% of a cigar is the best "smoke" from the cigar... The human brain is made up by about 100 billion neurons... Thought about creating a new Twitter handle "Your Dad" where I'd retweet with comments like "I'm disappointed in you" or "I'd always hoped you'd do better than this" or similar approbations to people who Tweet silly things. But honestly it would be too much work . So many silly people...

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.
- Good stuff - rules for writers
- But wasn't curling invented as an excuse to drink?
- Interesting - the Trump Administration has saved Americans $26 billion on prescription drugs through increased competition fueled by the approval of 1,617 new generic drugs.
- Another of the great pranks in college sports history
- Tom E. Curran with a sobering look at where the Patriots will find themselves next season
- Hawaii's Mars simulations are turning into moon missions. There is a very real race for the moon going on.
- Northern Exposure reboot in the works at CBS. Cool but how about releasing the original episodes on Netflix or something first?
