It's Election Day in NJ (primary for governor and a few others). Get out and vote! More important now than ever! Also, what better time to reminisce about the time when NJ lost my voter registration, so I went to court & got a judge to sign an emergency order to let me cast my ballot!

The sheer number of things that had to happen in 2025 for me ... a lifelong Boston Bruins fan ... whose mom grew up in Montreal ... and who now lives in NJ and takes his daughter to Devs games ... to wind up rooting HARD for the Toronto Maple Leafs ... Never say never. Go Leafs go!

If the backlash does this to Tesla car sales.. imagine what might happen if Musk actually managed to unleash "a legion" (that might be 10,000) of humanoid Optimus robots on society later this year?
