Not to pile on, but every 'c' in 'Pacific Ocean' is pronounced differently.

This is Winston Churchill visiting the White House during World War II.
Funny how he isn’t wearing a suit either. Almost like he was a wartime leader defending his country from being slaughtered and wiped out by an authoritarian aggressor.

This should be a lot of fun! Season 1 was one of my all-time favorite shows, regardless of genre. Please don't disappoint!

2025, the year when "republican" and "monarchist" became synonymous.

Hello non-technical people. Just a heads up. Musk isn’t a programmer, a systems architect, or anyone with experience building or running large systems of any kind. However, he’s taken credit for others binding large systems which makes him think he’s That Guy. He is not.

Loving these etymological history lessons. In Norwegian, we have the equivalent ‘økenavn’, a reminder of our common linguistic roots 🤓
‘Nickname’ is not ‘nick’ + ‘name.’
It was originally ‘ekename.’
‘Eke’ was the Middle English word for “also” or “in addition.”
Since ‘ekename’ began with a vowel, people used ‘an’ before it.
Over time, 'an ekename' became 'a nickname.'

I didn’t have particularly high expectations for Skeleton Crew, but I was very pleasantly surprised! Those who describe it as Goonies in space, are spot on. And in my book, that’s a great compliment!

How do I know it’s Christmas morning? I have suddenly purchased all the cash my daughters were gifted, and am now figuring out where I can use cash with least inconvenience.
Merry Christmas everyone!
