The classic Johnny Carson line, California actually has four seasons: fire, flood, mud, and drought.

My ceramist spouse and I have talked about putting together a map of small producers like this, but they’re so hard to find!

Skiers French Toast. Basically an egg-bread-milk casserole that’s been steeped overnight before morning baking. Maybe add a bit of brown sugar schmear on the bottom for caramel. Dress up with sausage, bacon, eggs, fruit.

Haven’t been that far west with the EV on 70 or 80. Colorado to the Utah border was fine, though.

Typesetting, rather. Scars still applies.

1. Programming in Basic
2. Paganism through Christianity
3. Time-dependent quantum mechanics
4. Algorithms (really, a review of Knuth through typography, I have scars)
5. Linear algebra x3. I dunno, it just happened.

Not a direct reason, but engineers at Paramount are paid about $200k per year. Netflix, about $500k per year.

Was just going by your second reference, which mentions the Journal of Empirical Legal Studies (onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/1740...). Browsing through the issues only seemed to have one possible article.
