I always make my layovers 90 min longer in ATL. Not because it’s bad but because it has interesting things inside I want to relax at. Paschal’s. One Flew South. And it had a Caribou coffee which I still miss in Ohio.

Trump wants to do what he always does: say one thing, while he does another. In Iran he has a counter party that will always call his bullshit because they have no interest in him in any fashion. I don’t think he knows what the fuck to do with this type of adversary.

When a shoe company, Allbirds, pivots to AI... I gotta say that's the strongest evidence of a bubble about to pop that I've seen so far.

Definitely an identified nerd, sitting in Las Vegas airport waiting to fly back home. I don’t bet on sports but I do gamble when here as a source of entertainment. My gambling is confined to this place where the theo and comps formulas give you some value in experiences. Nice rooms or meals comp.

Me either but then I think about the Iranian payments for passage… and it’s obvious Trump just wants in on that grift.

The song is spiraling out of control as she is. It’s a good scene.

Right, it’s a good collection of songs but I can only think of the one scene that well uses the music. Jenny on the balcony.

After Gladiator lots of movie trailers used bits of that soundtrack in preview trailers. And it drove me nuts. It’s forever Gladiator. All I hear.

Flip side Hans Zimmer does it the other way, writes his music to sync with the visuals. Either way when a song gets tied into a scene my brain associates and plays back the visuals every time I hear the song.

For me it’s whether a film integrates the songs into the scenes. Baby Driver is probably the ultimate example of it having nearly completely syncopated visuals directly to the music playing. Others are more subtle like cosmic castaway’s timing in Titan AE.

Given that it is still the largest Christian denomination in the US, it feels like a dumb ass move politically to make a public enemy.

Pasta e fagioli soup. But I’d be careful and avoid the acidity of tomatoes in the first week.

Yup and they even have a 3D model capability for the internals as well now. How we found out about my "fun" from my 20s. 20 years of 2D x-rays that all looked normal. But they need that 3D photo scan to build you an implant identical to the natural tooth. Whole 3D CAD process now.

Or is it just more stupider…

If he actually had an agreement he wouldn’t be pausing for 2 weeks. Or any time period.

And I thought the day before his inauguration was the precipice of stupid. I stand corrected!

These two teeth have always been pain for me since I was a kid.

For me this is the price of childhood poverty. A poor cheap dentist drilled too deep when I was 13 on what should have been routine fillings. Instead it was exposed nerve for a decade, root canal in 20s, and now turns out infected ever since underneath.

Oh same really but they will cover bone grafts and removals.

Seems prudent. My way is damned expensive but ironically maximizes what little the insurance will help.

In the middle of the same thing this year but I am only doing one side at a time through completion until I do the other.

Happy Easter. May those of you with kids spoil them with jelly bean, chocolate and candy memories that last a lifetime. May all of us embrace our friends & families over one more good meal.

Just counter balancing a little for the train wreck post from the orange clown.

Sometimes it's just a matter of cyber defense though. We have quite a few ASNs for VPN providers blocked because they've been the source of consistent cyber attacks on our networks at my work.

But will probably look like 10-15% by the time it reaches consumer level.

A big spike of oil price induced inflation is working its way through the manufacturing supply chain. Price hikes of 5-10% in the span of a month here in the middle where I work. Will arrive at the consumer level for home construction and renovation by May/June.
