Tasmanian Tiger and humans

 The human mind as I have posited prior on multiple occasions is at best bizarre.  Capable of emotion that is uniquely human and conceiving of ideas that would thwart any genus'.

We can explore galaxies and kill one of our own in the millions.  By free will.

On more mundane front we also do strange things..

Like believe in almighty god.  Or Santa Claus!

Keep interviewing Demi Lovato.  She is an addict.  She can sing.  Okay so what is left to discuss?  What is the obsession?

We like to discuss English Royalty.  Who said, what, when to whom and why?  It is akin to Holmes asking why the dog did not bark perhaps?

Great mystery?

The NYT did a recent write up on why human mind keeps seeing the Tasmanian Tiger, a decidedly extinct species last seen on an island off the coast of SE Australia.  Are we done talking about it yet?

Not till we remain fascinated with Demi.  Yeah that other one too - the one that is a hippie by some count.  Used to hang with bald man Bruce Willis.  Perhaps reached a point of fascination with his shiny pate that she went bald. I think.  As far as my research goes.  Then I moved on to Kauravas and other myths.

Anyhow, or as even some of my white American colleagues will spout 'irregrardless', honestly they do, create such abominations of words due to sheer lack of understanding of any language; post covid lot more of us are seeing things.  Differently.  Some influenced by a higher intake of alcohol or other substance, some just fried by being cooped up.

Perhaps all we need in our lives is a little prick.  I mean that vaccine shot y'all.

Of chocolates

I like chocolates. Godiva Dark with Almonds - not sure of the naked woman on the horse to be the icon of some choice cocoa based products but tastes good. Started in Belgium but now owned by some Turks. Cadburys - Fruit and Nut Milk Bars - awesome combination of dried fruit pieces along with a medley of nuts makes your toungue dance - started by a Brit now owen by Kraft USA. Lindt Hazelnut spheres - made by a Swiss confectioner are divine balls that melt in your mouth with a lingering nutty taste Ghirardelli Milk Crisp Squares - crunchy and light these milk squares are easy on the palate but pack some serious calories - all good I say! Originally founded by an Italian who moved around till he landed in SF Bay today also owned by the Swiss Lindt empire.

Columbia SC

 The Palmetto state.  One of the confederate kinds. History dating couple centuries back.  We visited the capital yet again this time to take in the SC State Museum. Occupying the former digs (literally remodeled) of an erstwhile cotton mill this structure is an amazing piece of reimagination.  Four floors of excitement for kids and young at heart alike. Located on the shores of the Congaree River formed when the Broad meets up with the Saluda River, this edifice is approx. 60 years old.  The front of the building has a more modern planetarium that was added about a decade ago.  The museum itself has different areas of interest segregated on each of its four floors. The first floor has gift shop and a diorama of some of the local geography including the swamps and the state beaches with audio guides to help understand what fauna thrives locally. The second floor is all about natural history and showcases animal kingdom that may have survived on this latitud...

Gab about Gaps

There are a number of news stories these days where conversation inevitably turns to discussing some sort of GAP - Gap between rich and poor is growing Gap is losing market share to other clothiers The Dow is Gapping Down (so is the NASDAQ) and the dollar is Gapping Up The guy who advised British public over the PA on dangers of tube travel with the phrase 'MIND THE GAP' has died There is a frightening Gap between our Debts and Savings Gap between Executive pay and Average worker salary is at an all time high All I am doing is listening to all this unfold with my mouth aGAPe. What me worry?
