I am a bit of an eccentric, but I love reading studies, even if I don't fully understand some of the technical ones. I enjoy hearing from real experts. My daughter is a chemist and some of the stuff she sends me is way over my head.

In the vein of bombastic headlines, I have always appreciated this billboard from the Midwest a while back:

My wife took a video of one second every day for the last year, and made a compilation using some app. Pretty close to what my year was, if you replace her time doing theater stuff with martial arts.

Thought it came out pretty cool so posting here in case anyone wants to see:

I liked it, and your year was better than mine :)

It got me thinking though, If I had done that in 2021. most of the last 3 minutes would have been me, sitting in a recliner, with my leg elevated ;)

That we did. She did this once before, our senior year of college. Going to look at that at some point to see how it compares.

If you want, I can figure out what the app is called. It's still pretty early in the year

I hate this weather....warm, in the 40s, grey/cloudy, wet/rain..... should be cold snowy and grey with scattered sun.... this ain't winter...... at least the temps tonight are like winter.... in the 20s again...been in the high 30s and 40s.... yuk...

I want winter to come back..... but then...living here has taught me...it will come back....and it will be angry

I see what you mean.
Yesterday it was nice and sunny, and sometime last night it started to rain.

Yesterday I sat on a rock on the beach and thought about the following 3 questions:

1. Who am I?
2. Where did I come from?
3. Where am I going to?
Ich saz ûf eime steine
und dahte bein mit beine:
dar ûf satzt ich den ellenbogen:
ich hete in mîne hant gesmogen
daz kinne und ein mîn wange.
dó dâhte ich mir vil ange,
wie man zer welte solte leben.

You may ask yourself, "What is that beautiful house?"
You may ask yourself, "Where does that highway go to?"
And you may ask yourself, "Am I right, am I wrong?"
And you may say to yourself, "My God, what have I done?"

Sometime I asked myself, "Why am I here?" I then realize that I'm here to save the human civilization. That make me to feel good about myself.

Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, into the silent water
Under the rocks and stones, there is water underground
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
