I chuckle every time I see the phrase "PiS party."

My mother came in third (disastrous final round) on Jeopardy! in 1967, and believe me, what the sponsor interpreted as a year's supply of Rice-a-Roni went an awfully long way.

I love Rice-a-Roni and could easily blow through an entire year's supply in a year.

People in this country will go on a reality show just for the free therapy.

I enjoy watching old game shows and seeing how excited people get when they win a microwave or a year's supply of grapes.

'Marijuana' is the only English word in which the 'j' is silent.

Your smile for today. 😁

All of the Founders' worst fears about how American democracy could go off the rails - lack of separation between church and state, a populist demagogue assuming dictatorial powers - are happening just in time for the 250th birthday

Ooooh...please fix it so he has to read a chapter with lots of names in it. 🤣

You ever spend a bit of time alphabetizing the science section and just end up blown away by how much we know, how much we discover, how much we create, and how relentlessly curious we remain despite everything we've already done?

I do not want to create an account or open a subscription I just want to buy a thing and never hear from you again why is this so hard.

Today is the birthday of Bob Kaufman who wrote:

Believe in the swinging sounds of jazz,
Tearing the night into intricate shreds,
Putting it back together again,
In cool logical patterns,
Not in the sick controllers,
Who created only the Bomb.

This was a real journey 😳

The showdown between the Pope and the Antichrist reminding me of The Omen, Omen II and Omen III: The Final Conflict.

My most reactionary opinion: we need to bring back moderately priced and widely available paper versions of the Sunday paper. I used to love reading the Sunday NYT at the breakfast table on Sunday or at a restaurant while having brunch. Just an exquisite experience.
