(1) That video was highly amusing.

And good for my intellectual insides, too. What am I talking about? Well, one of my standard responses is: "People will compete at anything."

I think we now have a worthy counterexample.

I don't see that ever catching on.

(2) I have one of those cheap red wheelbarrows. Home Depot. Thirty-five bucks.

I ended up having to replace the pneumatic tire with one of those solid puppies. About $25. Hasn't gone flat yet.

News you can use, maybe.

(3) Last night's episode of Star Trek TOS was "Mudd's Women." I was surprised at how not-so-great it was. Memory fail on my part, was my surmise.

Well, not-so-great until the last seven minutes, or so, when Eve goes front and center on Rigel XII to do her emoting thing about what men really want from a woman. The miner-guy hit his beats like a pro. Kirk and Harry Mudd morph together to form a single, approving space dad. Makes you feel all safe and secure inside, warm love protecting you from the face shredding sandstorm blowing like raging hell fire just outside the cabin door on the planet surface.

Stuck the landing.

He's pretty good with an empty wheel barrow but can he push it around when it's full of wet cement?

I accidentally dumped a full load of it when I was 18 while my boss was watching, and since then never once considered a wheel barrow as something I'd want to have fun with.

Speaking of wheelbarrows full of crap.

(oh wait)
from ACE:

"Perhaps the White House doesn't want Americans to know that out of over 70,000 illegal immigrant children who crossed into the U.S. almost 48,000 came from Honduras, Guatemala and Salvador. In these countries measles and the EV-D68 virus are quite common. If we include these children's family and friends, not listed an "unaccompanied," over a quarter of a million people from Central and South America have entered the U.S. illegally this year.

From 1970 to 2005 there were only 26 cases of EV-D68 ever reported in America. The number in 2014 is approaching 1,000 cases, with about 10 percent of those cases known to be causing a polio-type virus that has left children crippled."
