Now that German soccer is starting back up I guess skinny can give up the obsession with covid stats.
Would have posted this to 110% but I don't have permission. It's cool, i never got along with jocks anyway.
This blooming agave plant is in our neighborhood and has made it onto reddit, twitter etc. Now the neighbors are asking that people quit visiting. I've noticed the crowds increasing by the day but I guess it's gotten out of hand. I wonder if people in South America would get so fired up about a douglas fir?
just bought, for tofu green bean
not good but likely right
Europe opens up.....
China recorded 85 million domestic tourists during the first three days of the five-day May Day holiday, generating 35 billion yuan ($4.95 billion) in revenue, according to the country's Ministry of Culture and Tourism.
Last year, 195 million domestic tourists traveled during the entire holiday, generating 117.7 billion yuan ($16.67 billion) in revenue, according to previous data from the ministry.
Amid the Covid-19 pandemic, the ministry has ordered tourist sites in the country to strictly control the flow of visitors, capping numbers at 30% of each site's capacity.
Some 70% of scenic spots rated "A class" in China's tiered grading system were open on the first day of the holiday, according to the ministry.

more tales of slightly inappropriate movies for 8 year olds in the 70s.
was about to see if i could get into nickelodeon on tcm. have a fading memory of visiting a friend who moved to manhattan after first grade and we were going to see it but maybe it was sold out and we ended up seeing silver streak instead. just checked and they both came out december of 76 so im guessing it was over the christmas break.
nickelodeon was directed by bogdanovich of last picture show fame. he kind of flamed out as a director but excels as a link to old hollywood. they mentioned he is doing a podcast along with tcm. looks like it hasnt come out yet but you can subscribe.
haha. i found my friend. think we fell out a year or two later. those "long distance" friendships rarely keep at that age.
interesting path.
