Chemistry professor Dave Collum returns to the show tomorrow to talk about anything and everything. I genuinely do not know how he is still employed at Cornell University. As he writes in his year end review: “My views of finance and geopolitics have been profoundly influenced by my career in chemistry in which I have published over 160 papers, which is a solid count. Almost every one of these papers, however, chronicled how elite scientists who were trying to get it right managed to bone it, sometimes quite badly. I developed the rare skill of being able to confront credentialed experts and say with a firm voice, “I think you are full of shit.” QUESTIONS?

I walked out around dusk to find our rooster, Hei Hei, in the mouth of a fox after what appeared to have been quite a struggle on his part. I sprinted as fast as I could, yelling like I was on fire, and the fox let go. Miraculously, Hei Hei walked away, though he lost quite a few feathers. It took him less than 12 hours to go back to sneak attacking me. No good deed goes unpunished! If you’re fighting off foxes, gain that extra few seconds for help to come by taking your cod liver/butter oil! https://www.greenpasture.org/ Use promo code “ALISON” at check out for 10% off.

We were stuck for 2 hours on the Sunshine Skyway bridge over Tampa Bay today due to a fatal accident. Watching everyone get out of their vehicles, take selfies, throw footballs, fish, and wonder when they’d get home - while someone was dead just yards ahead - reminded me of my days in TV news, which were filled with these odd juxtapositions of both the most humbling moments and those of routine frivolity. Most people were probably just hoping the road would reopen, though perhaps for a few seconds they considered the life and death of the person up ahead. It will be the same for all of us someday. Few will remember or even care. Even those who are hoping money or power will save them, those who may end up in a history book, will still meet the same fate. And though this seems a morose Easter message, I find it to be oddly fitting for the day we Christians remember our only hope. There is no identity that will last, no bank account, fame or statue that will save us - for dust we are and to dust we ...
We are enjoying a combined family vacation this weekend with @VivaFrei and a routine night fishing turned into quite the adventure. A fish stole the pole then Lynn used his USMC combat diving skills to retrieve both the pole - and the fish still attached! If you’d like the endurance and strength of a USMC combat diver without having to go to endless wars, grab some cod liver/butter oil and more at https://www.greenpasture.org/ and use promo code “ALISON” at checkout.
Hope to see you there. Here is the X link but we are on Rumble and Locals too.

At the end of the day, we pay. The cause may be what it may be, we still pay. A wasteful war does not help.
