Post: Some people just pour a shot of olive oil and one shot it down.In Iceland it is still common practice to regularly give cod liver oil to children, because of vitamin D deficiency caused by missing sunshine. A special treat... ;-) Are these people living in the dark ages?!! There are perfectly good vitamin D supplements that don't cause gagging. |

Post: Fake meat can cause real health risks — experts call for caution amid plant-based craze I've always wondered why vegans, et. al., need fake meats. Why not just eat something that isn't supposed to resemble meat? I suppose it's because some people want to pretend they're eating meat, but if you're a vegan, why? Just eat vegan food that isn't a meat-substitute. |

Post: I watched and strongly recommend The Zone of Interest. ( It's available to rent on DishNetwork for $5.99 and other places.) It's amazing and quite haunting. "The commandant of Auschwitz, Rudolf Höss, and his wife, Hedwig, strive to build a dream life for their family in a house and garden next to the camp." :-( |

Post: I watched Outer Range on Prime Video. It was weird. I'm still not quite sure what it was about. "The Abbotts are coping with the disappearance of their daughter-in-law when the neighboring Tillersons make a play for their ranch land. Tension comes to a head when a mysterious black void arrives in the Abbotts' pasture." |

Post: "Indigenous Continent", by Pekka Hamalainen. "Indigenous Continent" presents a sweeping counternarrative that shatters Sounds very interesting. I've been learning a lot about this subject by watching documentaries as well as the movie "Killers of the Flower Moon" (also a book). |

Post: I binged A Confession on BritBox yesterday. "The true story of DS Stephen Fulcher and his hunt for missing 22-year-old Sian O'Callaghan, and how it lead to the arrest of Christopher Halliwell. This was the beginning of the capture of a prolific serial killer and the detective's own downfall." I found this very interesting. On the one hand, this detective caught a serial killer that no one knew existed but was all but relieved of duty for not "cautioning*" the guy at the right time. If this happened in the USA, I'd wonder about the cop's intent. I don't think the police in England are quite the same as some of ours are, so I wonder about Fulcher's true intent. I have to ask my Brit friend about it. *reading him his rights; Mirandizing |

Post: Last night I watched Asteroid City on Amazon Prime. It was one of the strangest movies I've ever seen, and I'm still not sure what it was about. I'm going to Google it to see if I can find out. |

Post: Just a short update. David's obituary will appear in the Naperville Sun in the coming days. It was written by David's godfather who has known the family since the late 1950s. So please pardon any errors. It is as follows: David W. Streeter, 57, passed away on December 26, 2023, in Palos Hills, after nearly six months’ hospitalization resulting from a serious fall he suffered at home in July 2023. David was a lifelong resident of Naperville; he was born December 3, 1966 to Paul Streeter and Gail (Grote) Streeter. David attended District 203 schools and graduated from Naperville North High School in 1984 and College of Dupage in 1992. After graduation, he worked for many years at Naperville North High School as a media technician. Like his late father Paul, David was a railroad and model railroading enthusiast. David’s interest in railroading subsequently led him to a job ferrying train crews, picking them up at the end of their shift, or driving them to the origin location of a shift. His unfortunate accident occurred while returning home from work late one July evening. David was predeceased by his parents, both of whom died in 2011; by his grandmother, Grace Grote, of Winfield, who passed away in 2013; and by his aunt, Kathy Fermo, of West Chicago, who died in July 2023. He is survived by some family on his father’s side, but also by loyal friends including other railroad fans. David’s remains, along with those of his parents, will be interred at a later date at Wheatland Township Cemetery. Donations in David’s memory may be made to the Illinois Railway Museum in Union, Illinois, of which David was a member. |

Post: I really thought that this was a female when I 1st saw the pic, the coin is 35mm wide. Instead, that big boy will save a lot of people. (“With having a male funnel-web this size in our collection, his venom output could be enormous, proving incredibly valuable for the park’s venom program.”) Stay observant, especially here down under. ;-) |
