This week's Existential Comic about William James is pretty good: "William James and the Train Robbery."
This blog will host my ramblings about life. To be a bit more specific, I'll probably focus on these subjects: music, sports, food, the everyday beauty of life, and the comedy/tragedy/absurdity of our existence. That about covers it.

Random Notes from a Crank
Good news for renewable energy. The Washington Post reports that "Huge Wind Farms Use Much Less Land Than You Might Think."
The article relates something that I've seen here in the Midwest: wind farms and agriculture work together just fine. So I'm a bit perplexed how the article is that ground breaking unless you live on the East coast.
The article does talk about how turbines could work with existing structures such as roads and other non-agricultural land.
And they're also reporting that "A Small EV Tax Credit Change Makes Going Electric More Enticing." Where was this up-front $7,500 discount when I was shopping for a new car last year?
Watching The X-Files reminds me of the lousy designs of sedans that Ford and GM put out in the 90s. Ugly vehicles.
One of the great skits on SNL was Celebrity Jeopardy.

Significant parts of the US population have been mentally hijacked by half-witted Lone Gunmen who are conspiracy theorists but just stooopider.
It's a bad situation.
Actually, it is.
One episode is eerily reminiscent of Moscow Don's grievances. Check out the episode "He's Alive."
So why not check these out.
