@Djeep I remember the Reagan Berlin Wall speech.

The Shamrock Stampede

We’re ready!

Every year we watch Darby O’Gill on St. Patrick’s Day, eat something Irish, and have a couple of drinks. We don’t pretend there’s any accuracy to the movie(it was obviously shot in California), but it is fun and whimsical and reminds us of a time when Disney wasn’t so soulless.

Anyone take a gap year before going to university? Trying to convince my daughter that it is a great idea. I didn't, but didn't even know that was an option at the time. The hard societal push to college is just disturbing and I want her to see the world a little bit before deciding what to do with her life.

@atyh I’d be interested in your thoughts on what this would look like. Also, I find it hard to 100% blame most people who live in the “poop”. The learning curve for technical things is steep. Having an example of how nice things could be would be very helpful for showing people that the internet is poo.

@Russ and the medical team have been busy giving sight to the blind, in the name of Jesus, in Panama. They have been stuck for a while due to civil unrest.

@jordan We just dropped them after almost 15 years. Their price increase wasn't really the reason, but it made us re-think the value. I'm honestly just tired of watching series/movies and I've always considered those an interest.

Ugh, having kids is a challenge. An autistic one more so. At some point, I'm guessing a couple of weeks ago by the state of things, Heidi turned off a chest freezer full of meat. I've been eating mostly plant-based and had decided to throw a party and feed a bunch of people with it....shame. Yeah, I'm going to re-freeze that before trying to clean it out.

@tanjaostman That looks like fun!

@alex Yes, a few similarities to The Martian, but I liked it better.

Just finished Project Hail Mary and I really enjoyed it!

This is about a farming family that I knew growing up. Good folks who excelled in everything they set their minds to. Steven's brother, Rick, has been involved in computing for a long time and is humble enough to keep a lot of his accomplishments to himself. I would bet that he has made a huge impact on the industry.
