My mother and I were on the QE2 back in 2000. There was an older lady (70s) who essentially lived on the ship. She got to see the world, meet new people all the time and there was a doctor with a decently appointed surgery onboard. Much better life than sitting around a retirement community, but it’s not for everyone.

Or Prince Andrew:

Even if the project is cancelled, there’s no guarantee that he will open his restaurant and comedy club and on top of that, there’s no guarantee that they will survive for long.

There are two countries in the world where you always take your shoes off when you enter a home - in Japan, and in Canada other than for a house party. Not sure what the Japanese reason is, but in Canada it’s probably due to the messy winters and so it’s become a standard practice year round.

About 15 years ago I worked on a show that Whoopi was on. Although she’s a talented actress, at the time I thought to myself, “There but for the grace of God goes a bag lady.”

Hopefully she has some recourse in a civil suit.

Sorry, I’d like to see Justin Trudeau punched in the face instead.

Check out Trevor Noah’s explanation of China quietly taking over Africa.  And again, it seems the West is turning a blind eye to it.

In any article about China and human rights/freedoms, replace “China” with “Nazi Germany.” It’ll make you want to avoid buying anything made in China. Unfortunately North America gave up its manufacturing industries to China years ago. Good luck finding a product that you use that isn’t made there.

The fellow driving a semi who blew through a stop sign in Alberta and hit the Humbolt Broncos’ bus, killing 16 and injuring 13, got 8 years.

Once Kamala is president, her husband can take over the decoration duties.

Can’t Stop the Music (1980) with the Village People.

From a popular music standpoint, the song isn’t very catchy and is a bit of a yawn. It seems like she’s going back to her country music roots.

If you have a lot of books, organizing by color can make it difficult to find a book. Not only do you have to remember the title and/or author, but also the spine color. That’s extra brain bandwidth that I don’t have. For a few shelves of books, it’s a nice idea, but for a wall of them, nope.

Andrew is an entitled POS all the way from his school days at Gordonstoun and Lakefield to today. He played dirty back then and got away with it. He will continue to play dirty in whatever mess he’s in and he’ll expect that he will always get away with it.

I’ve been think about taking up Tai Chi to build up my leg strength.  Any thoughts?

She’s done a number of French films.  Maybe those are the ones she’s referring to.

This guy died from a prop gun that he was fooling around with.

It reminds me of the Walter Matthau classic:

Wasn’t there a Sopranos episode where one of them left a car in an airport parking lot and drove off in another car that he’d had parked there?
