Falafel is one of those Middle Eastern dishes that everyone claims, everyone has their own version, and everyone uses to demonize the Jews. And it's the equivalent of hamburgers to Israelis, an everyday meal available on every street corner. The Israeli version uses...
Prime texted me, "I have a really good friend you haven't met yet, another doc. We're having drinks and I told her about you. Can you make it to dinner on the 6th?" And then a few quotes which led me to believe that her friend was an Actual Jew and one with a sense of...
I had an old friend come through town this week. We used to frequently travel together in Europe, go camping in California, and hang out in his compound (he did very well in financial engineering) in the great town of Nederland. I even got to see the infamous Dead Guy...
I hereby pledge to do better Links than Brett’s yesterday. Somewhat better, anyway.
SP marked a signal event this week. We celebrated. So the Links could be a bit sketchy. Sorry.
“I was quite depressed two weeks ago when I spent an afternoon at Brentano’s Bookshop in New York and was looking at the kind of books most people read. Once you see that you lose all hope.” – F.A. Hayek
It’s Sunday, and the masks come off. Well, they’ve been slipping, and the news is proof of that.
I’m not sure how I’ll pull that theme together for Links this morning. But come watch me utterly fail.
Who says that Yahweh doesn’t have a sense of humor?
Another surreal day here. But I’ll keep it real in the Links.
How can I possibly feel any hope? And yet… I do. Maybe the Links will perk you up a bit, too.
As the world turns and the fever burns, it’s clear that people never learns. OK, no more poetry, just Links.
We now enter the 7 month period where I keep wondering why the hell we moved here. But the news is more important than my extreme discomfort.
SP is reduced to repeating, “Has everybody gone fucking nuts???” Here’s proof she’s right.
Hell has descended here. And Links are descending there.
A new day, a new week, and the fuck it attitude is spreading. Morning Links are my small contribution to this.
People are starting to rebel. Trust in media and government is dropping. I’m happy, relatively. So to celebrate, here’s Links!
Proclaim Liberty throughout the land and to all the inhabitants thereof. Just kidding. News is proof of that.
Just kidding, I’m out and about. Hide your kids. And comment on the links.
Sorry, bad day for us. You guys have fun, though.
Because really.
Because, you know, fuck that guy. Think of these links as Sloopy Seconds.
Actually, we’re not stuck at home, but we’re pretending. And linking. And begging for some help.
At least that’s how I’m comforting myself. And I definitely get that feeling from those I encounter. In the meantime, cower-in-place and read the Links.
Nearing the end of the Tolerable Season here. The news takes it over to the intolerable. But amusing comments are verbal salve. And SP and I abide.
