6: the first product of two unique primes
7: the first Mersenne prime
8: the first cubed number
9: the first odd square of a prime
10: our base

Point being that if you ever encountered a genuinely uninteresting number, that fact itself would be interesting, thereby making the number interesting.

The bewildered chef, again at an inordinately fancy restaurant, kept asking, “Yes, I understand, but why would anyone want turkey? Wouldn’t you rather have these other, much better tasting birds instead?”

We did a Thanksgiving dinner with the Barcelona program, and the professor in charge had to explain turkey *and* Thanksgiving to a very beleaguered but fancy Spanish chef for the whole thing to happen. I somehow ended up as turkey carver.

Something to truly be thankful for.

These just sound like totally normal pizzas you’d get at a local non-chain pizza joint. These are wild in the same way Minnesotans think being in the same room as a poblano pepper is “spicy.”

Thanks. There’s a long road ahead, but it’s much better than the alternative. I hope you have time to enjoy the company of your people this weekend.

Hold on while you can and appreciate every moment. I know you know this, but it’s worth repeating when my own dad’s in the ICU recovering from emergency surgery.

Woke sounds so much cooler when it’s practiced by people with names like Erik Privilegecleaver or Freya Antifadottir.

No, no, Kevin. I’m going to break into your house, steal your stuff, and sell it for a huge profit, BUT the courts are going to make me drop a fiver on your kitchen table, which will make it all good.
