I kind of wish that everyone would stop calling this experimental injection of the mass public with MRNA a vaccination.
You educated folk know what I am talking about.

My observation included tits this morning. Not pretty, and I had to help her up, but she's fine and I remained a gentleman.
Jimi Hendrix: When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace. 

Ghandi: Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

The end result of life's daily pain and suffering, trials and failures, tears and laughter, readings and listenings is an accumulation of wisdom in its purest form.

I saw a tractor trailer miss hitting a bridge by only a few inches,  kinda disappointed I would have gotten it all on my dash cam

I need a dash cam, I think I'm going to do some research on them. I've seen some stupid shit, would have been nice to have footage of it.

Take my advice and get one that allows you to easily save an incident while driving. Mine, a Rollei I bought on a whim and got cheap, is not brilliant. The picture quality is fine but the interface still confuses me after more than two years of ownership, and the only foolproof way to save something is to shut down the thing and copy the clip to a hard drive at the earliest opportunity.

If it has a G sensor all you need to do is reach over and give it a tap and it should save it.   I would recommend getting one that lets you access it with bluetooth because getting the little sd card out is a pain in the ass

UPS doesn't seem to know in which country the parcels they handle are. I was supposed to receive a parcel yesterday, according to their tracking service, but nothing turned up and today they revised the location of said parcel. It's in... Shanghai.

We have daily morning calls where everyone is supposed to report in on what they're doing. I can think of few meetings more pointless than these, and I just want to yell that I'm not interested and then hang up.
