I have never watched one. But it certainly would be interesting. The band has been around a very long time and has gone through several major transformations. I saw a documentary on Peter Green, the person who formed Fleetwood Mac and wrote Black Magic Women. He named the band Fleetwood Mac to get Mick Fleetwood and John McVie to join him. I don't recall the name of the documentary but I saw it on AXS TV. There is a classic albums episode on Rumours I have seen, also on AXS TV. Edit: Here is a The Big Interview episode with Lindsey Buckingham, https://www.axs.tv/channel/the-big-interview-with-dan-rather-season-3/video/lindsey-buckingham/

They'll probably have more jumpers now, non-suiicidal ones who just want to say they jumped off the Golden Gate Bridge.

https://www.yahoo.com/news/contractor-golden-gate-bridge-suicide-201319475.html I would think you could prevent more suicides with $400 million than building this net. Why won't they just drive to the Bay Bridge instead?

Got to see her, with Fleetwood Mac, live at the Forum a few years ago. Edit, one of the encores was Christine alone at the piano doing Songbird. https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/fleetwood-macs-christine-mc-vie-dead-at-age-79-211235140.html

It took my daughter over 6 months to get building permits for a condo remodel in West Hollywood during covid. She might still not have them but the former mayor of West Hollywood lives in her complex and helped her.

I have been vaccinated, boosted three times, and I am 69 years old. I'm in a room with 50 college students three times a week. I have students next to me in my office all the time. Almost no one wearing a mask for at least a year. As far as I know I have not gotten COVID. (I imagine I could have had it and no symptoms.) Isn't the big difference with those who have been vaccinated that they are not dying or even needing to be hospitalized? Edit: Just about everyone on campus has been vaccinated. I have been made aware of two students who had COVID this semester and would be missing class. There might be more who have not gotten tested but I get the feeling that most have been conscientious about it.

I have been in academia for 38 years and it has been great. Plus I get to live in a smaller community. Most of my career I did everything in collaboration. Those collaborations changed over the years. In the current situation this could not happen because I never interact with anyone. It was great when I could just go down the hall and find an expert to sit across the desk from and talk to. This could really impact innovation. Musk understands this and why he is forcing his employees back to the office.

I understand that situation. I am at a large research university in a college town. A long commute is 15 minutes. I can bike to work in 12 minutes.

I go into work every day and often I am the only one there. I'll see some colleagues maybe once a week some never. This kills interactions and creativity.

Anchor Steam is good, but I really like Anchor Porter.

I was in a mall yesterday in Indianapolis and saw a See's candies. I don't believe I have ever seen one in Indiana before Edit: I don't know why the photo is upside down. It isn't that way on my MacBook.

and they are charging >6% for loans and <<1% for your money. I've been writing a lot of puts on WFC and BAC for several months.

That made me laugh!

I could comfortably retire, but won't because I love what I do. What I do does not depend on my net worth. Of all the blue zones, Okinawans have the highest life expectancy. In Okinawa, there isn’t even a word for retirement. Instead there’s simply ‘ikigai,’ which essentially means ‘the reason for which you wake up in the morning.’”

I agree regarding morning coffee! In the evening a stout or porter, but I try now to do that just one day a week. Listening to classic rock—Neil Young, The Who, Led Zeppelin, Cream, etc. Exercising, reading, developing videos for my Youtube channel, and teaching. And of course writing puts on BRKB!

One more thing about doing hard workouts. Glycogen is the way your body stores glucose, an energy source. Glycogen is stored in your liver and muscles. Glycogen in your liver can be converted to glucose and released into your bloodstream for use anywhere in your body. Muscle glycogen must be used in that muscle. I imagine a sedentary person has glycogen that is years, maybe decades, old. I don’t know if it deteriorates but I would not be surprised that it does. So, it is good to exhaust your muscles to clean out the glycogen. Your muscles are then primed for up taking glucose from your blood at your next meal. This helps to ward off type 2 diabetes and type 3 diabetes, dementia.

38 years and counting for me.

I echo @cubsfan about weight training and maintaining or building muscle more important the older you get. When you get injured, the repair materials come from existing muscle. That is why breaking a hip is often the kiss of death for the elderly, because they haven't maintained any muscle mass. This loss of muscle mass with age is viewed as a disease, sacropenia, that can be prevented, or at least greatly delayed.
