I like it. And feel it.

it is jarring…lol.

You are the target age for CBS. They have always chased older audiences, and they know how to do it. Music from your youth is a good hook.

John Cale did Dylan Thomas proud

What does that mean?

“Train in Vain” is a song by The Clash

one of their first big hits in the states…late 70s

What I think is pretty cool about the Clash is that they sung a lot about socialism and then decided to cash in on their fame

Has anyone ever worked out of a co-working space? Did you like it / did you get any social interaction out of it? I’m in a 100% remote role & the isolation is driving me crazy. (My team does everything via email or IM - phone & video calls are super rare) I’ve been considering working from a co-working space 1-2 days a week, but it’s so expensive I’d like to get some first-hand reviews first. Thanks!

Do you use or have you used First Command Financial Planning? If so, what’s your experience with them?

Yesterday my younger brother called me looking for good hidden swimming spots in the mountains. He was up there with a bunch of friends and their original plans had fallen apart hard. And I go much more often than he does.

I told him I had map pins that are EXACTLY what you need for these hard to find places. I can send them in 10 mins when I get home.

Reply? Forget it, I'm all set.

Yep, 10 mins is too long. Here I was expecting "Wow! That's fantastic!" How silly of me.
