Suzy Welch says Gen Z and millennials are burnt out because older generations worked just as hard, but they ‘had hope’
"We believed that if you worked hard, you were rewarded for it," Welch said. "This is the disconnect."

I just researched the 2024 Virginia Tech @ Miami game.
It says so much about that team and the season they had. All of their strengths and weaknesses laid bare.

History tells us via many examples that governments, no matter how much they profess otherwise, do not trust their people with the truth.
Guess what always seems to happen when the suppressed information becomes public.

Traveling on I95 to visit family for The Fourth. There are some pretty aggressive drivers out here, both in automobiles and on motorcycles. A favored move appears to be accelerating to cut into the tiniest gaps between vehicles to change lanes
Be careful out there.

Party ribs done on my Camp Chef. A bit of a miss as I forgot to refill the hopper after a pre cook burn in and as a result ran out of pellets mid-cook. They look okay, but ended up a bit dry after finishing in the oven.

I like the Eagles today. They are brash, hard nosed, are seeking retribution, have the largest O-line in the NFL, and have the only NFL home stadium with an on-site jail.
They are the one team prepared to play old school NFL football. I want them to treat the Chiefs like a grapes in a hurricane.
