Dick: And Candy.
Jane: October is sweet!

Climate change? In the MLB year just ended, 6,776 Home Runs were hit making it the leagues total ever by a wide margin (Previous record in 2017 -- 6,105). Thin air? Or is it warming up, as in the normally frigid Minn where the Twins set the team one-year record of 301 versus the previous high of 267. A professor will write a thesis on this someday.

With all of the digital progress made in new businesses and revitalized older businesses, caring for volatile employee populations is the still number one headache and becoming more so. Apps are just apps, but humans have problems.

Skim milk is Ok, but buttermilk is whey better.

Some on notable people who portend be smart are saying impeachment will throw Trump out of office. Of course it will only Trump over to the Senate for trial, where it 67 votes are needed for a guilty verdict. That would normally say that conviction is pretty much not in the cards. In normal times, that is. But now it appears that Repubs are not standing shoulder to shoulder, cheek to cheek on this one. As we have noticed, the Trumpster does operate a bit out of the box.

For those of you who are wary of Alexa listing to conversations, Amazon has developed a male version. Men don’t listen to anything. So they say.
