I’m just remembering times when my Garmin and my wife’s Apple Watch both decided my heart rate strap was the right one. I knew we were in trouble when she exclaimed she was only 94bps on a climb she’s normally 130+ on.

I have 2 books I stole from my high school library. In both cases, they were books that had only been taken out 4 times, all by me. I figured nobody would miss them. One of them was “Space Time Physics” by Taylor and Wheeler and the other was “Wilderness Canoeing” by John Malo.

Just so everyone is clear, just like last time this happened, Canada specifically tariffs only things coming from red states. I’m surprised we haven’t banned Teslas yet, but probably only because we’re still committed to the Paris Accords.

I saw him do it live at a concert in Exhibition Place in Toronto that was to benefit the Olympic athletes who were denied a chance to compete in the Moscow Olympics. "HARRY! THAT SUCKS!!"

I had a German Shepherd that stole an egg from the barn hens and played with it for over a week. When she eventually dropped it, it was quite rotten.

Actually, I think it might be all the ups and downs on the drive to Bristol Mountain that are doing it. My ears popped 7 times on the drive today.

The fact about the Articles of Confederation allowing Canada to join the US is irrelevant because the Articles of Confederation were superseded by the Constitution in 1789.

Well, I wasn’t expecting that. I guess I shouldn’t judge a book by their lack of cover.
