I Lied

I said in my last post that I would be making daily notes for a year end post.  That did not happen. I imagine that will piss off my large base, but I gotta be up front.  On top of that, JB is upset with me because I ran out of baba ghanouj before I got to her Christmas letter.

Did you see Time Person (People) of the year? Here’s the pic. Stephen Colbert said: “That cover photo there is inspired by a famous photo of iron workers having lunch on the steel beam of a skyscraper. There’s one slight difference: This time, you’re rooting for the wind.”

I got a disheartening Atlantic article from Dr. Joe. The NIH is now nominally headed by Jay Bhattacharya, aka “Podcast Jay”, but it is his deputy that is doing the major damage. I also came across the news that the Trump admin is doing its best to trash NOAA. The pundits have already said it, but it will take decades to recover from the Orange Duce’s wake.

I haven’t got much else for you but the week 16 picks and a ho ho hope that you all have a wonderful Christmas.
