This Is What I Think.

Today is 12/24/2024, Post #1





Last night, watched episode 4 and episode 5 of "Earth Abides"

A really disappointing streaming-video serial. The primary characters are just so unbelievably lameoid. The earlier episode with the "Beautiful World" scene makes me think that's the sort of stuff that causes people to hate San Francisco.

Last night, the video content also revealed to me a truth about the heroine surgeon from UW, and that becomes relevant to entertaining discoveries I find today, after watching the episode yesterday



I have not progressed beyond page 182 of 346 in the Kindle edition of the book

So I don't know if Joey invents something in the book that is the equivalent of his invention in the video episode I saw last night.

Before he gets killed off by disease, as I know happens in the book and that seems to be in progress now in the video, concluding season 1 on Dec. 29th.



Would be very surprised if that series is not outright cancelled at the end of season 1.



If this is the first blog-post by me that you have read then your opinion is meaningless because you are galactically uninformed.

The American Presidency Project

GEORGE W. BUSH

43rd President of the United States: 2001 ‐ 2009

Remarks at a Groundbreaking Ceremony for the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland

July 03, 2008

Thank you very much, Deputy Secretary England, for that generous introduction. I am so honored to be here at Bethesda National Naval Medical Center. This is often called the President's hospital. The reason why is this is where the President gets medical care. But I'm relieved today not to be on the treadmill, weighing in, and getting a blood test. [Laughter] I also will tell you that the care that the President gets here is extraordinary.

I am so excited to be here for what is a grand occasion. This is a big deal, the breaking ground of a new joint medical facility for the men and women of our Armed Forces. Thank you all for joining us.

In a few years, the current campus at Walter Reed will close, and many of its services will be relocated to the new complex here on the grounds at Bethesda. The two hospitals will be merged into one central campus, which will be called the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. At this new center, wounds will be healed, medical knowledge will be advanced, lives will be rebuilt, and those who wear our Nation's uniform will be reminded that they have the enduring gratitude of the American people.

That blouse makes me think of that comforter I used to have on my bed a few years ago.
