Friday OT - Yip yip yip yip yip yip yip yip, mum mum mum mum mum
Higher Education - student facing. I keep students from setting themselves on fire. Also, solid call on the song lyric Angie. Took me a bit to think about where I knew it from. -
Evidence of life found in the atmosphere of Venus
For sure, and analysis of the thermodynamics can help us understand where the energy can be potentially used to do work (like the work of assembling more complicated, life supporting molecules). My recollection is fuzzy, but I think the Miller-Urey experiments give us some of the fundamentals... -
What's streaming that's good TV/movies
I burned through the first season but got stuck on Season 2 (distracted by work). Restarted it yesterday and just wow. What a great show. -

I had to put the Carhartts back on and clear the dog path again. Snow drifts are over their shoulders. -

Favorite Beatles Album
Team Abbey Road for sure. It's a trip to watch the Beatles documentary, Get Back, if you haven't yet. Watching those classic songs come out of those guys just hanging out in a warehouse and music studio is just fascinating to watch. -
When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?
SIAP, but thought this is worth the read. Is it cheaper to refuel your EV battery or gas tank? We did the math in all 50 states. https://wapo.st/485H6id -
Friday OT: To Nog or Not to Nog
