Three One Four
It’s Pi Day, everyone! It is also Albert Einstein’s birthday and, sadly, this year’s edition marks the passing of Stephen Hawking, about which I’ll have more to say later. But for now, let’s celebrate Pi! Calculate Pi yourself! NASA’s Pi … Continue reading
Greta Thyssen
Roger notified me of the passing recently of actress Greta Thyssen at the age of 90. I confess that I had no idea at all who she was, but thankfully, Roger provided context. In addition to her film career she … Continue reading

Things….
A motto I saw: A conversation I’m surprised I haven’t had: A snippet of my own writing that I rather like: A sunset: A cat in my chair: A kick-off to my current vacation: And on it goes!
Nothin’ good comes from a can…. (An experiment involving whipped cream)
Pie-in-the-face weirdness below the break…. OK. So it’s been my experience that the most common form of whipped cream in the US, the stuff in the aeresol can, is great for topping your pumpkin pie or for dipping strawberries or … Continue reading
