Attended a local friend's 40th celebration and happily discovered that "Capture the Flag" is still going strong. This aging banner is from my 1st Ozarks hg in West Plains, MO. It was a 2 hour round-trip to attend meetings/events. Good times. 💖

Unfamiliar with the term, #TIL about Damascus knives. Very cool, thanks for piquing my curiosity. 🙂
Brilliant!
Go into the arts. I'm not kidding. They are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven's sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.

Holy heck. A lot of people might not appreciate the significance of this discovery, especially more than 50 years since Zodiac's reign of terror, but it matters.
Not many on CoSo know, but my maternal grandfather was a pioneer cryptanalyst with "No Such Agency". We had some interesting discussions before he passed in 2004. He had few regrets in his last years, but he was hopeful that Zodiac's identity would one day be revealed. Maybe this will eventually happen.

@Susandoyle If I get raptured I've fucked up badly.
