So a great deal of the cryptocurrency space is admittedly hype, laundering, and oftentimes the wrong tool for the job. I'm a believer in the technology and I think it could do a lot of good for mankind. Average folks don't understand that it isn't just about money. Blockchains are records that are replicated globally and can't be altered. Here is an example(a little cheesy) of a message stored on a blockchain.

It could, in theory, be around for ages.

My cousins wrote and performed a song a few years back based on a Civil War letter written by a soldier to his wife. It's a good song.

Ken Burns also mentions it at the end of the first episode of The Civil War.

Ran into my late grandfather’s call sign while visiting my parents.

A picture from when I was about Heidi’s age. My folks are just eating it up.

I and the family made a trip across the country to celebrate my mom’s retirement! Tomorrow is her last day.

For most of recent history, up until about 60 years ago, the act of creation was just a part of life. Everyone sang or played an instrument or wrote or performed or danced or Something.

But recording technology turned creative output in to a path to fortune and fame. Suddenly, if you weren't exceptional, then why were you trying at all?

This concept is, of course, bullshit.

After about 3 weeks of sewing, and lots of help from our friends, we've built a dodger from scrap canvas and vinyl we had onboard.

It will keep the rain and spray out of the companionway for the foreseeable future.

Mission successful! 🥳

When driving in snow, it is a good idea to occasionally give the wheel a little wiggle or tap the brakes when you’re in a safe spot. This test gives you an idea of how in control you are and how responsive the vehicle is(in the current conditions). It reminds you of the limits of your control so that you can account for them. Likewise, you can test yourself by temporarily abstaining from good things like food, sex, entertainment, etc. Then you will know if these things serve you or not.

Holy 🤯
If you're a parent or grandparent you need to watch this ENTIRE episode.
Love or hate Glenn Beck, he does some of the best deep dives.
