I watched my tiny campus Board re-elect the president for 5 more years despite a faculty strike, 98% faculty vote of no confidence, and 92% student vote of no confidence (Oregon Institute of Technology)

I heard there was a tasty bread
So neatly braided, like a thread
But you don't really care for gluten, do ya?

The kneading, proofing, baked just so
The egg brushed on to glaze the challah-lujah
Challah-lujah, challah-lujah, challah-lujah, challah-lu-u-jah...

Born a year after Edwin Hubble discovered that our Milky Way galaxy was just one of countless other galaxies that populate the universe.

Smart, kind, and gentle. Not sure if they make 'em like that anymore.

RIP Jimmy Carter (1924 - 2024).

For Decades, Calls for Reform to Idaho’s Troubled Coroner System Have Gone Unanswered
Idaho’s patchwork of 44 coroner’s offices leaves grief-stricken parents without answers in their children’s deaths and creates disparities in coroners’ investigations.
