When we talk about Baby Boomers not getting off the stage: In 1997, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2007, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2017, the US president was born in 1946.

And next year in 2027? The US president will have been born in 1946.

I Verified My LinkedIn Identity. Here's What I Actually Handed Over. I wanted a blue badge on LinkedIn. To get it, I gave a US company my passport, my face, and my biometric data. Then I read the fine print.

This may be of interest. YMMV.

It seems to me that when you see ads that include references to buying or eating Irish pork you never get to see footage of real pigs. The sheep and cows get all the glory. Poor pigs!

"Hey, I know that everything feels bleak and barfy right now, but if it helps a little, please remember that sea stars can regenerate a lost limb and sloths can hold their breath for 40 minutes and all houseflies buzz in the key of F and otters hold hands while they sleep and penguins propose with a pebble and everything around us is actually quite magical all of the time, too."

On a bit of a rainy road trip today, I found that, for some challenged drivers, on a two-laner, the standard of cutting back in when you've overtaken me is fairly shite so can you please have a fucking think about that. But you probably don't know who you are so ho hum.
