I tried the pumpkin spice latte at Starbucks this week and was underwhelmed. It wasn't bad, but it didn't taste like coffee at all.

I'll stick to my regular lattes or my new fave, an oatmilk cortado.

I had no problems getting my Covid-19 vaccine today. I said I was eligible (even if RFK Jr doesn't think so) and it's still covered by insurance. Get yours while you still can!

If the right *truly* believed Charlie Kirk was a defender of free speech and someone who was fine with dissenting opinions, they wouldn't be engaged in a massive campaign to punish anyone who didn't "mourn him properly."

They clearly know all of that is bullshit. Only the media was conned.

Watched "The Goonies" in the movie theater last night with my family and loved it! Even the kids thought it was a good movie (for an oldie). Definitely watching on the big screen was an improvement.

Got my Wordle streak to a personal best of 100!

I can't listen to videos where every single pause in speech has been edited out. Maybe this is useful because it means the video is 3% faster but to me it's endlessly distracting.

Am I just an old fogie for feeling this way?

Something tells me we're going to be seeing a bunch of wildfire-disaster movies come out of Hollywood a year from now.

Everytime I put a Rush album on, I'm just amazed how great it sounds. I was lucky to have many of their CDs through college and beyond.

After a recent trip to China, one takeaway is that bakeries are phenomenal. Pastries and breads were better than the ones I had in France. Cakes are less sweet, fluffier, and overall tastier.

The Chinese have a greater mastery of baking than anyone gives them credit for.

I don't know why liberals are up in arms about the Supreme Court ruling that Presidents have total immunity for official acts. Biden is the current President. He could order an assassination of a political rival, for instance. Total immunity!

I'm kinda surprised I haven't heard more in the Skyverse about the Chicken Nugget TV Series on Netflix. www.imdb.com/title/tt2864... Worth a watch, although I'm not sure I'll make it through all 10 episodes.

April Fools Day is no fun anymore. The Right makes up so many stories nowadays that it's April Fools Day every day (except they don't fess up to the joke).
