The last bit about punctuation was especially brilliant where the moderator pointed out that modern punctuation has been on a down swing since Boy George used five commas before the word chameleon. www.bbc.com/audio/play/p...

I just really need everybody to understand that everything that’s happening in and to the global economy now (and all the businesses and people in it) is the entirely predictable result of the intentional decisions of one guy who doesn’t understand how the global economy works.

Some schools fight. But UAB is literally sending checks back to donors, killing scholarships for high-performing Black med students rather than risk wearing the scarlet letters of DEI. And just look who gets called "morally reprehensible."

There's nothing like walking on beach sand to remind you about your calves. While walking, I stopped to take a pic of the great blue in the middle, and he decided to take off as I hit the shutter. The Canada geese on the right were honking up a storm as they swam along.

As I was walking this morning, there was more going on and I didn't feel de-stressed until two songs came back-to-back in my playlist: Ebb Tide by Frank Chacksfield and his Orchestra (youtu.be/VATF93NMujk?...) and Cristo Redentor by Harvey Mandel (youtu.be/NHWkIIFCRVw?...). I recommend this music!

We live in a world where powerful universities cower like congressmen, afraid to complain lest they lose the clout they are too afraid to fight for. So why not get an old Bama football player to put it down there where the goats can get it?

This is so utterly disgusting. We've officially said hell yeah to racism, bigotry and discrimination again in the US. I know they've continued to exist, but now it's sanctioned by the government. I'm so sorry, y'all. Just know, my money won't go to any company supporting this shit.
