I always thought The Stand was Stephen King's last really great book.  Maybe he can do a ripping good horror book set during the Civil War.

Speaking of one-hit wonders, has anyone ever gotten more mileage out of the resurrection of a one-hit wonder than Europe and Final Countdown?

In fact, Geico has one of the best advertising campaigns ever.

The SAE's were the "milk and cookies" frat when I was in school.

As for music:  "We built this City!"

I went to a chinese buffet for lunch and for once did not regret it one hour later.

We're having Chinese in tonight.  Coincidences?  I don't think so.

Keeping it non-Stanford football related, we're hoping to score some of those miniature football helms shaped potstickers from Bo Jackson's commercial.

I really love potstickers.

Ever tried the frozen ones from Trader Joes?  Not the best but the best store-bought I have found, and better than most take out places in my area.

Tell your local take out place to source their potstickers from TJ.

I wish.  I know better.  Tonight ordered pork lo mein, got home with pork fried rice.  I'm done with them.

If it were a good restaurant to order from, they might have done you a favor since I would argue good pork fried rice is better than good pork lo mein.
Conclusion, not a good place to order from in any event.

Interesting.  I know that when Carroll Shelby partnered with Unique Performance and started manufacturing Shelby Mutsangs again, they were using VINs that were originally granted decades before they had horrendous problems and ended up declaring bankruptcy.  Urk.

What is the takeaway? "Spend, don't save" or "don't pay off your student loans"?

Quote:Their “Doomsday Clock,” a symbolic clock which predicts when humanity will destroy itself, remains unchanged in the latest update, a mere three minutes from midnight — the hour at which catastrophe strikes.

If the Zika virus were able to cause microencephaly in infants at any time after infecting the mother, that clock would probably have moved 90 sec closer.  Today I learned that fetuses are unlikely to be at risk for microencephaly if the pregnant woman had cleared the infection before the first trimester.  (I'm late to this Zika fever, pun intended.)  Whew.

Ten years ago today, the Rev Albert Gore assured us that by today, the planet would be uninhabitable due to man made climate change, mainly the gas caused by eating retried beans.  Last one, please turn off the lights.  Conserve!

Just because... a female shark ate a male shark.  It's a shark-eat-shark world out there.
