Instead of "Home Economics",

Could we teach "Global Economics"?

"Good morning, class!

Today we'll be making a simple cheeseburger!

Now, pickles are cucumbers; and cucumbers are from India!

But Tomatoes are from the Americas, as well as the potatoes for fries, and various other Nightshades."

Rev'! ;)

(Or do you prefer Kev? LMK.)

You raise an excellent point, re:

"The Angel of Death."

I always understood that this did *not* refer to "The Devil."

Rather, one of the hapless Heavenly Hosts was sent down for a terrible task.

I would appreciate your thoughts. 🎩

Oh, c'mon ...

It's not that bad!

I only had to beat down two people so that I could get the last three cartons of eggs.

I mean, I only got one carton.

But those three were the last dreggs; I had to pick and choose and reassemble my own intact carton from their ruins.

I recommend that you read the book.

The movie's imagery can be hard to take while it's being force-fed into your optic nerves. (By design! Well done, Kubrick!)

It's a tough watch, to be sure.

But it's easier to take breaks with a book.

Peter Thiel is coming out with a 4-part series about identifying the antichrist.

Like we need a 4-part series. We're in America. Pretty sure we already know the signs.

This fabulous lady breaks it down into 4 points. In under 3 minutes.

Now, ... put it all on a skillet.
