It Was A Slow Sunday Afternoon. Then, Suddenly, Absolutely Nothing Happened. Need Some Coffee.

Don't know what to tell you.

New Study: Lifelong Marriage Reduces Risk of Dementia: Probably mostly because SHE won't give HIM the satisfaction and HE won't get dementia without her permission. I've been married awhile ...

"Shattering Records" – Wildfires in 2021 Emitted a Record-Breaking Amount of Carbon Dioxide: And, somehow, it's all Trumps fault.

How Parents Decide if They Should Vaccinate Their Kids Against COVID-19: Try it first on the kids you're not quite so fond of. If it works ...

Revolutionizing Biotechnology: Scientists Create Supercharged Bacteria with Immunity to Viral Infections: Because gain of function on the COVID wasn't deadly enough.

Physicists Confirm 50-Year-Old Hypothesis About Selfish Behavior: We'd love to share the results with you but it's Mine. Mine!

Revolutionizing Neuroscience: First-Ever Complete Wiring Map of Insect Brain Neurons: Unfortunately, they used only 2300 Democrats in the study. Offer them more "free" shit to participate. That'll work.

Made three (3) dump runs with my dump trailer this week; totaling just over 3000 lbs of wallboard taken out of the Father-In-Law Apartment (FILA). Was fairly easy and the dump trailer worked a charm. Saturday's run I even got through quickly cause I didn't have to wait in the "unload it yourself" line. I got to use the dump trailer side. Cool. Less than $200 for the three loads.

Hired a young guy and a couple of his friends to tear out the FILA and load the trailer. Best $500 I've spent lately! They did good work.

Contacted the Recycle/E-waste place about the butt-ton of old cd/dvd cases I have that I'm looking to get rid of. Nope; not recyclable. I can donate/give them to someone or throw them out in the trash (where they will sit in the ground for 1000+ years). Just seems like they're made of plastic so they should be able to be remade into other plastic "things." Melt them down and recast them in a new shape. If I had the means I'd try it here at home. With aluminum cans too. Wonder how much a small furnace would cost?...

My hydroponics experiment in my bathroom is going well. The spinach is doing really well. The lettuce not so much. The tomato plants are taking off and doing so well that I took one and put it in a pot to do the "Kraty(?)" method. Just to experiment. Yeah, I know we're going into spring in a couple of weeks; but I'm trying to learn this stuff.

Made a kick-butt pork roast in my insta-pot for dinner. Pork was still mostly juicy. SWMBO liked the carrots: which I put a couple spoonfuls of Lemon Curd (jelly), wrap in tin foil, and put on top of the meat when I cook it. Pressure cook for 15 minutes and let depressurize "naturally." Taters were kind of a bit too mushy though.

Ah well.

Been watching those "shuffle dance" video's on YouTube. I don't think I had that much energy when I was that age!
