Partaking in Chinese food on a Friday evening has always been a tradition for us.  Perhaps not every Friday night, but wherever possible.  With full disclosure, I’m pretty sure this is an example of a husband indulging his wife.  I can’t say Bill enjoys the experience as much as I do. But yet, we go.

I cannot believe that “The Rocky Horror Picture Show,” is turning fifty.    

Friday’s blogger evidently passed on this milestone; he could have covered it in anticipation ahead of the poor weekend or after the fact going into this weekend. I covered it six years ago when the anniversary fell on the next day (obviously a Monday).

Last week's blog was about freedom of speech. This one is about restrictions.   We don’t let 13-year-olds buy alcohol, cigarettes, or lottery tickets because those products carry risks that require a certain level of maturity. So why are they allowed to sign up for social media?  

All around me, I hear people (on both sides of the aisle) voicing their angst with our turbulent state of politics and, although empathetic, I calm myself by thoughts of how, historically, the pendulum usually swings.  As we approach next year's midterm congressional elections, I know that in 22 of the last 24 midterm elections the President's party lost ground in the House of Representatives.

Rosh Hashanah— the Jewish New Year—was celebrated earlier this week. And next week is Yom Kippur-the Day of Repentance.

Last week the news reported that a thirty-two-year-old man had died after riding the “Stardust Racers” extreme roller coaster at Epic Universe. So far, investigators have ruled the manner of death an accident. The victim, according to the medical examiner had sustained “multiple blunt impact injuries.”
