A reason to sigh
I cleared the walkway and the deck area, this afternoon. New snow is already erasing any trace of my effort. In some belief systems, that would be considered as “a sign”. Or a reason to sigh.
Watching a news story out of ON, where a teacher distributed an assignment sheet with very precise instructions on how to prepare and inject your own “substance”. You can Google for details. The odd thing is that the teacher has been suspended, with pay. Or as the rest of the world calls it, paid vacation. This is the same model used with so many other cases involving law enforcement officials or politicians (paid to stay away). I’m unable to determine the deterrence…
A class act: what else can you call it, when a businessman who is angling for a top political position is on the home shopping channel flogging his line of wines. No, not whines. I guess this counts as another way to build familiarity (and breed contempt).
Should I invest in a set of traditional Monopoly tokens. The familiar little bits of metal are about to be discontinued (in part). Swapped out for more contemporary objects. I checked, and for a modest sum I can still purchase the “originals” either on eBay or Amazon. My quandary? I don’t own the game. Is this an opportunity for investment?
A moment of respectful pause goes out to the team at YouTube. They’ve decided to do away with all of those “non-interruptible” ads that now play before your selected video content, and there will be a replacement that is better suited to the the advertiser/viewer relationship.
