    I’ve had lots of Cannanau while vacationing in Liguria. You don’t see it much outside of that area of the Mediterranean. Nice.

    Yesterday was our yearly listening of JCS. I have an original vinyl pressing, a remastered vinyl pressing from just a couple of years ago and an original reel to reel tape. We listened to the tape yesterday. The new remastered 45rpm Alan Parsons Project, A Turn of a Friendly Card arrived Friday. It's a great album.

    I once heard a woman use the word ‘mansplaining’ incorrectly and there was literally nothing I could do about it.

    [image: Spotted-Lake-Osoyoos-Okanagan-Valley-Canada-1.jpg] https://mybestplace.com/en/article/spotted-lake-stunning-lake-filled-with-colored-circles Spotted Lake, also known as Lake Kliluk, is one of the most visited natural attractions of Canada. It is located about 60 miles from Vancouver, just near the the United States border, between Okanagan and Similkameen Valley in the desert of the Canadian region of British Columbia. The colorful rings appear due to a high concentration of minerals dissolved in the water which contains some of the highest levels in the world of magnesium sulfate, calcium sulfate, sodium and other minerals, and even small concentrations of silver and titanium. There are over 365 separate tubs which form extraordinary natural and geometric shapes that change color according to the seasons and temperature. When climate is hotter, the water evaporates and decreases in level allowing for the composition of the minerals and their crystallization which are colored white, yellow, green or blue, creating walkways and natural pools of magical charm.

    All is not bad news. The March jobs report indicates that the U.S. economy added 178,000 jobs, with the unemployment rate decreasing to 4.3%. Job gains were primarily in healthcare, construction, and transportation sectors.

    Factor in the number of graduates in each field and it might have something.

    @jon-nyc said: From a new Finnish study. https://x.com/suzylebo/status/2040485163252031698?s=46 This is nothing new. Peterson laid it out quite well over a decade ago. Gender Dysphoria is not the root cause , it’s a symptom. The fact that in over 90% of the cases it actually resolves itself through puberty tells you everything you need to know…

    @89th said: You wonder what Vance's wife says in private. She has a remarkable poker face, but you know she is DYING inside for the sake of her husband's potential career. I would not be so sure. It's not uncommon for a wife to be supportive of her husband's career aspirations.
