He’s nuts about you.

I am a former 19 year old man. Trust me.

You literally need to see this movie.

You can’t call yourself ‘mister’ and not see it.

I am a huge fan of the Apple TV shows.

“Pluribus” and “Widow’s Bay” are two of the best shows I’ve ever seen. “Slow Horses” is another great one.

You can always get it for a month and record what you want.

From ‘Enter The Dragon.’

“We are men who have forged ourselves in the fires of our own will.”

Realistically, if you eat out of trash cans you’ll have the same experience, and if you’re quiet and neat, no one will report you.

No one is forcing you to brush your teeth.

Popular misconception.

There were a lot of people who never made it out of childhood, which skews the average down.

But if you made it to adulthood, you had a pretty good chance of making it to 65 or so.

Watch “Spider-Man- No Way Home”

Three different versions of the same guy show up.

That’s the basic idea.

Remember, right now it’s science fiction/fantasy

Like the link points out, we were drinking before we had written language.

It’s a matter of dealing with life on life’s terms. The reality is that people like drinking. Sometimes people drink too much, and a few unlucky folks can’t drink anything without risking death.

I ocne read a story about a Vietnam era war correspondent. He was a pacifist before going to cover combat and seeing combat up close made him hate war even more.

At one point a publisher asks him to contribute an article that ‘deglamorizes war.’

He wrote back that deglamorizing war would be as easy as deglamorizing sex.

On the other hand, why do you think we gave up the hunter/gatherer life style?

Cultivating grapes for wine and grain for beer was the origin of civilization!

It’s like there was one Steve Jobs and when he died none of them could come up with an actual product or idea.

Since it’s completely theoretical at this point, anyone can say anything.

To put it another way, last century there were all kinds of books about life on Mars. Today we can talk about ‘the multiverse’ or ‘different dimensions’ the same way.

The generally accepted concept is that there are an infinite number of universes, and that every time someone makes a decision a new ‘timeline’ emerges. In one world you ate strawberry ice cream, in the next chocolate, in the next you skipped dessert…

It’s a fun idea for science fiction authors and theoretical physicists, but no one has proven it’s real.

Not all junkies are homeless.

Plenty of high earners get addicted to pills of one sort or another.

Michael Jackson died after being shot up by his private MD.

Junkies know everything about getting meds.

A doctor would rather have someone in discomfort than deal with being investigated for over prescribing.

I heard a talk by a doctor who specialized in end of life hospice care.

New interns at the facility are averse to giving out pain meds to people who are literally dying because that’s what they were taught.

Yes.

Life Pro Tip. Don’t play stupid games with people when they are working.

At best it’s rude, and at worst it might get you thrown out of the shop

Ross Thomas was a Washington reporter turned crime novelist. All his stories have a political slant.

The Fools In Town Are On Our Side is about an ex-CIA agent who is trying to make a small Southern city ‘so corrupt the pimps will vote for reform.’

Anyone who knows the difference between the Fairness Doctrine and the Equal Time Rule will probably enjoy his work

Here’s a great story.

Snake Eyes was one of the original Joes. He was made of all black plastic because that was the cheapest thing they could do.
