Episode Details

Workout in! But gotta get ready to go. What’re the plans for the summer so far?

Spent the weekend reading, was quite nice. The Stand, Singapore is STILL not an Island, and some other books and newspapers.

Argentina, England, France and Spain advance! Justin Beiber to perform at the FIRST FIFA World Cup half time show? Is the US showing the world how to do this competition?

Got some rain over the weekend while the rest of the country gets flood warnings. (Typhoon Bavi hitting the southern regions.)

Did I tell you my breakfast place closed down? At least until September.

ChatGPT updates and where did all my projects go? And do I even need them any more?
