Putting on warm socks on cold feet in the morning đ is one of the most wonderful little things in life.
Why Do I Care
Why do I care what you think?
- I don’t even know your name, so why do I care what you think
- I have never met you face-to-face, so why do I care what you think
- All you want to do is criticize, and label me a fool, so why do I care what you think
- So why do I care what you think? Perhaps itâs the echo of doubt a whisper in the back of my mind
- It’s ok to doubt I am only human, but I will not let you define or affect me.

Thoughts on Dick Cheney supporting Kamala Harris
When I heard the news that Dick Cheney was going to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris for President, it reminded me of what Churchill said when someone questioned his alliance with Stalin during WWII
“If Hitler invaded hell I would make at least a favourable reference to the devil in the House of Commons.” âWinston Churchill · Devil Hell House Reference …
NFL Week One Thoughts
- Adding a 40-year-old quarterback, even a Hall of Fame one doesn’t automatically mean your team is headed for the Superbowl.
- We will not know how good the Saints are until they play a real team in a game. (apologies to all Panther fans)
- This year’s batch of rookie quarterbacks is confirming that playing in the NFL is hard and yes C.J. Stroud was special
- The New York Giants’ 1920 uniforms look much better in black and white than in color.
- Deshaun Watson and Daniel Jones are running out of excuses and time. đ
Libro.fm Link has Been Corrected
If you want to support independent bookstores, love listening to audiobooks, and are tired of supporting Amazon. I recommend Libro.fm. I moved to it over a year ago and have been very happy.

I Don't Know How I Feel
The latest rumors are that Ted Lasso is coming back for another season. I don’t know how I feel about this. I loved the series, but I have moved on. I have gone through the withdrawal steps: denial, sadness, and finally acceptance. Now it is pulling me back in and I am afraid it will not be up to the standard of the previous seasons and will ruin my memories of the series. đș
I am quickly coming to the conclusion that Threads is replacing Twitter (X) as the place people tell others they are doing it wrong. And by wrong I mean they are not doing it the way they would do it.
I am using the podcast app** Castro** and I am trying to figure out how to auto-play the next podcast in the queue. Does anyone know how to do this? Castro
Currently watching Presumed Innocent a dark but excellent series so far. I am only on the 3rd episode, so no spoilers
Items that I found at the Tipsy Bean Coffee Shop
If you have any interest at all in track and field, the Olympic 1500 today was amazing. Must See!
I think the one thing that we learned from Google’s Gemini Ad disaster is that if you are going to send a personal note to someone, you should personally write it.
Found these notecard at the local use bookstore Wernerâs and I couldnât resist
It's Been a Long Time
This is a bit of trivia I find fascinating that I saw in Morning BrewThis is the first presidential election without a Bush, Clinton, or Biden on the ballot since 1976âwhen the first Star Wars was being filmed.
And the winner of that 1976 election is still alive. Thatâd be 99-year-old Jimmy Carter.
âMolly Liebergall, Cassandra Cassidy, Sam Klebanov, Abby Rubenstein, Neal Freyman
Biden has dropped out I have to admit I am glad, having to choose between someone I abhor and someone who was to old meant that probably I would have stayed home and I donât think I am alone

Memories of Three Mile Island
Memories of Three Mile Island
- It appears that there is a new attempt to reopen the nuclear power plant at Three Mile Island in Pennsylvania as a little refresher Three Mile Island is the location of the worst nuclear disaster in U.S. History. On March 28, 1979, there was a partial nuclear meltdown of the Unit 2 Reactor. I was attending college in Shippensburg, Pa, about an hour southwest of Three Mile Island at the time. I remember there was talk of using the college as a temporary evacuation center in case they had to evacuate the surrounding area. Even though that seems pretty close for an evacuation center the prevailing wind is going eastward, so it did make some sense. This was before the internet and social media, so everything was word of mouth including all the rumours. Yes, there were a lot of rumors and a few conspiracy theories even back then. Despite what you may have heard people haven’t changed there have always been and will always be rumors and gossip.
Either because I am very brave or crazy I updated my phone to iOS 18. So far no major issues except the icons arenât showing up in the library. After I reboot the phone they are showing. Then if I donât use the phone for awhile, like when I am recharging they disappear. Sent Apple a feedback.
