I had an EMG to determine if I have carpal tunnel syndrome.  I don't recommend either the EMG or the carpal thing.  If I have it.  Which I won't know for awhile yet.  But the EMG was uncomfortable.
PDH!

Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.

Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

I heard from colleagues that kindergartens now interview 15 month olds for admission.  The interviews are conducted in English.  15 months.  Pretty sure I only spoke mama and papa back then. 

I say no to parenthood.

If everybody had that opinion, that would fuck up your long-term investment strategy and make sure you need to work until you die.

Whether I have children or not will not make a material impact on my retirement prospect.  Therefore, I should count on a sufficient number of people being suckers :contract:

Just read a NYT Sunday Magazine puff peice on Harry Reid.  His dad committed suicide.  He was a boxer and a Capitol police officer.  He was the head of the Nevada Gaming Commission and is supposed to have been the inspiration for the county supervisor character in Casino.
