A tee-hee of the afternoon...
I was visiting my daughter and son-in-law last night when I asked if I could borrow a newspaper.

This is the 21st century, she sniffed. We don't waste money on newspapers. Here, you can borrow my iPad.

I can tell you, that bloody fly never knew what hit him.....

This is hard reading, but it helps to understand what's going on. Sort of.

"I started going to rallies this year because I wanted to talk with people face-to-face in hopes of understanding their points of view. I have discovered how unique of a phenomenon Trump rallies are — and what you see on TV isn’t even close to the full story."

I made this beef stew. It gets points for being easy and tasty, but the instructions are confusing. Treat it as a template. Just brown the meat, then bake with its other ingredients for four hours.

**The ‘Super Emmys’ flopped 50 years ago. But that shouldn’t minimize this historic ‘Mary Tyler Moore Show’ win**

>>This bizarreness shouldn’t minimize the work that Silverman’s episode did, both in front of and behind the camera. The main category win made her the first woman to receive the comedy writing Emmy solo, without sharing a byline with a male partner. And its plot is still prescient.

(Transparency: Treva is my cousin. I adore her.)

My review of Orphans of the Sky by Robert Heinlein

I use a similar recipe from the 1980s-era Cooking in a Small Kitchen; it adds thyme and a few stalks of celery at the bottom of the pot to prevent sticking.

It is brain-dead easy. And yummy, as long as everyone in the family eats it.

I usually cook ratatouille alongside, FWIW.

It’s rare enough to find a plant encased in amber, rarer still to find part of a dinosaur – so imagine paleontologists’ surprise when they discovered this feathery "flower" was in fact a feathery tail that once belonged to a juvenile theropod. iflscience.com/this-beautiful-
