My wife is a doctor, and dragged me to her proctologist friend for inspection. Midway through, my wife waltzed in, and they had a lovely chat about their CEO's BBQ the previous weekend, all the while he was wrist deep in. On the journey home, i requested that next time, one intrusion is the most i can manage at any one time. She considered me an antisocial whinger. Medical people are really weird.

As someone heading into retirement, after a long career in corporate and governmental stuff, my advice to the young man is to take the money. 250k will put a roof over his head for life, and the humiliation will be far less than the grinding, soul destroying, principle compromising reality of being a suit. If someone wants to pay you good money to look at your cock, they've got the problem, not you, take their money!

There's this fella that owns a golf course in Scotland. Just recently he was one inch away from being available. People say he'd be the best cadaver. I think he's the best candidate for it.

“There are still so many things we don’t know about [a milky sea] beyond that it must be caused by bacteria,” says Steven Haddock, a marine biologist at the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute in Moss Landing, Calif., who collaborates with Hudson on milky seas research. “What are the substrates that fuel the growth of these massive numbers of bacteria, and what are the environmental factors that keep them from getting diluted into the water column?”

some years back I was the 'Head' of systems stuff at a national telco that provided the national telco infra. Part of my job was to manage the national systems upgrades. I had the stop/go decision to deploy, and indeed pushed the 'enter' button to do it. I was a complete PowerPoint Manager and had no clue what I was doing, it was total Accidental Empires, and I should not have been there. Luckily I got away with it for a few years. It was horrifically stressful and not the way to mitigate national risk. I feel for the CrowdStrike engineers. I wonder if the latest embargo on Russian oil sales is in anyway connected?

Swearing. I live in South East Asia, where swearing is taboo. Visiting my homeland of the UK, it takes a few days to get back my expletive laden fluency. The first few days are painful, as everyone thinks I'm being pretentiously posh. Upon returning to Asia, typically i offend a few people until my language is restrained. Sadly, Southeast Asians don't appreciate how expressive, cathartic and fun swearing is, it's a fucking shame.

For me, Handel: Mozart is reputed to have said of him, "Handel understands affect better than any of us. When he chooses, he strikes like a thunder bolt."[159] To Beethoven he was "the master of us all... the greatest composer that ever lived. I would uncover my head and kneel before his tomb."[159]

Good luck for Friday! Hopefully you can post an update next week, so we know you're with us. This may interest you; my wife used to be an anaesthetist, and during long, boring procedures would give the patient a facial - blackhead removal etc. It's considered unethical, but she delighted in them waking up looking great.
