I’ve been using the Anker Soundcore Space A40 $90 they work well and are comfortable. Link

There’s a podcast (Sad Oligarch) that outlines a lot of these “mysterious” deaths in Russia.

Absolutely without doubt. I am male 46 year I have a son (19) and daughter (22). I promise that if I randomly pick a happy moment out of my life it will include my kids, I smile when I think about them and I miss them when now that they are back at school. When I think, well they are now living their own lives now and not around as much, I remember how proud I am of them and what they are accomplishing.

As for me getting Alzheimer’s at 65, my thoughts would be to enjoy my children and hopefully grandchildren till I no longer can function. Then it’s time to “step away”, no need to be living without life. All that life is, memories and future expectations.

As for the kids potentially inheriting it I’d have to say life is a crap shoot but they would have many years to enjoy that life if that were the case. I know they would have the strength to deal with it. After all life is what you make it with a few bonus curve balls and sliders to keep you on your toes.

Another thought on your children dealing with parents falling ill at an advanced age (65 and above?? I guess). They will get over it, it hurts but it’s one of those inevitable things of life that you are hard wired to deal with.

Don’t let a potential future issue rob you of the enjoyment of the present.

And know the sizes of some common items; paper currency, coins, hand, arm, length of stride. You can use these to get a close approximation.

Don’t discount the flashlight so quickly. I avoid an excessive amount of shit in my pockets and it’s always the same. Money clip, knife, truck key, pen, phone and my flashlight. The Flashlight is fairly small, takes a AAA and is slightly bigger than an AA battery with a pocket clip. It gets used multiple times a day. Makes small print in dimly lit areas easier to read also. Honestly for some reason I despise using my phone as a flashlight:)

Your pizza looks great! What kind of pizza oven do you use?

Try using cornmeal to transfer. A friend recommended it when I was having issues and it helped a lot.

Don’t knock it. That’s where I defrost my chicken.

How dare you doubt the depravity of Ohio man. https://www.nbc4i.com/news/ohio-man-arrested-after-trying-to-have-sex-with-a-van/

I recently had an issue that caused similar issues. Ended up being a bad wheel on the Z axis. Wheel was damaged and the carriage would move up and down as the Z axis traversed causing that stripped pattern.

Good luck!
