One TV commercial that always stops me in my tracks, is Lindor ith those amazing scenes of rich creamy chocolate being swirled and pouted in slow motion. God help us.
Let’s all have a no holds barred rich chocolate week, but plain good old ole’ vanilla would be less stressful and still delicious.
Sitting in the ocean on a ship with a virus creeping around reminds me of the movie, Alien. Scary... and I feel for those people.
The global business aspects of the Xi-Trump meeting this week are too huge to be frittered away with schoolboy antics, right,

From my recent experience, I'm seeing that AI brings a lot of erroneous stuff to Ancestry,
“If God did not intend for us to eat animals, then why did he make them out of meat?” —John Cleese
I think NCIS has jumped the shark, not just because so many of the better characters are gone but because the stories are thin and with too much time deviated to human interest or social concerns.
Actually, many shows revolve around unimaginative plots while focused on side social issues.
And, BTW, Tony and Ziva may have done better if they put it on NBC instead of Peacock.
Also, a good finale for the Elsbeth show would be for her to miss a clue that leads to a tragedy and Elsbeth feeling guilty of turning to alcohol. Next season would be Elsbeth solving murders at rehab.
One of the big lies in local communities is that speed cameras are for safety. They are just another sneaky way to raise money to pay for bad spending habits. And they soak many an honest driver.
Gen Z has voted on their role models and Zendaya is the big winner ay=t at 18%. No otehr had over 10%. The rest in order are Elon Musk, Mark Cuban, Labron James, Mr. Beast, Beyonce, Alexandar Ocasio-Cortez, Kylie Jenner and Taylor Swift. 36% say none of these and 10% say not Sure. So, that's the future of America.

“When the waitress asked if I wanted my pizza cut into four or eight slices, I said, ‘Four. I don’t think I can eat eight.'”—Yogi Berra
Is Yogi running the Iran peace talks.
The Answer:
Most agree that Cy Youngs 511 Victories is safe, as is John Wooden and UCLA’s 88 game winning streak. Wilt Chamberlain’s 50.4 PPG seems safe too, even with today's gunners. Others are Ricky Hendersons 1,406 stolen bases, Cal Ripkin’s 2,632 consecutive Games, Wayne Gretsky 1,963 Assists, Boston Celtics 8 Consecutive NBA Championships, Mark Phelps 23 Gold Medals, Rockey Marciano 49-0 Boxing record. How about Tiger Woods Ranked tops in the world for 683 weeks. Some otehrs who may have safe recods are Jerry Rice Receiving Yards, Nolan Ryab strikeouts and maybe Tom Brady with 7 SB championships and total yards Passing.
Have a great week, everybody. And enjoy the chocolate.
