Update while not working and going through my opioid scrip:
First episode of The Watchmen (HBO) was very good. A little more geriatric Jeremy Irons flesh than I needed, but the visual style is very cool. And Trent Reznor's scoring is notable too.
As bad as Manchester United is, Spurs and Arsenal have been just about as disappointing. So I got that going for me.
I started a book on Genghis Khan. I'm big on starting impressive non-fiction books, but not finishing them. Hoping to make a dent and learn about the coolest Khan not named Chaka.
TR, if you get tired of reading, you can spring for the Dan Carlin's Hardcore History 5 part Wrath of the Khans series. No longer free, but available to purchase here.
Zuckerberg testifying on Capitol Hill today. If he would’ve sat down and taken a big swig of water like a thirsty cowboy, he could’ve disarmed the entire room, made folks laugh and lowered the amount of hatred towards him by 1%.
Instead, he roboted his way to his seat and showed off a haircut he got from Mark Davis’ barber.
Never seen this -- nice pull, Teej!

Here's 1979.
May these geniuses continue to find the time.

Caroll Spinney stopped being the dude in Big Bird last year. He had been doing it since the advent of Sesame Street in 1969. That’s something.
