Isaac Asimov's birthday was January 2nd, missed it by a little bit. Still, I figured I'd still note it.
He was a great man. I had the good fortune to have met him on several occasions when I was young. Can’t say we were friends, but we were friendly enough that he knew me by name. One of my heroes.

The complete Bayeux Tapestry has finally been released and proves that Bishop Odo had absolutely nothing to do with the illegal Norman invasion of England.

My doc once told me walk your dog every day, even if you don't have one. Well, I do and I do. Still, I'm getting older & need more exercise. So, I've started playing Pokemon Go. It's a blast & it's tripled the miles I've been walking.

The vicious cycle of monopolization:
1) Corporations argue that their growth is just part of the free market.
2) Use their monopoly power to gouge consumers.
3) Take a portion of their profits to make political donations.
4) Lobby against antitrust enforcement.
5) Repeat.

Just finished "These Truths: A History of the United States" by Jill Lepore. As everything I've read by her, it's excellent. Although I must say when she got into current events by the end of the book it was a bit sad (but that due to the reality).
