I predict that Smithers will be the first grandfather to give his grandchild an heirloom Apple watch

Well, if he’s going to live to be 100, it’s useless either way.

I’m impressed! That’s got to be it. But, like the woman in the video cautions, make sure you see a silvery or white underside, or else it could be that toxic plant that looks like mugwort.

Also, don’t consume it long term. You have to take breaks.

“Jogged”

more mugwort

Unless you live in the city, you’ll probably encounter mugwort growing somewhere once you recognize it. It has been given the “weed” libel by gardeners, and understandably so.

Wow, you really do look thin, V. I was dealing with some stress this spring, so I did some research into herbal medicine. I realized that a yard full of useful plants that I knew how to use was a form of wealth. I ordered some seeds. I was able to get several perennials established: valerian, licori...

I wonder what Jack Jones and others think about the idea of Elon as a sort of government efficiency czar

Wow, sorry to hear it, Vinny.
Get well soon!

Nice. Though I’m not good at calligraphy, I love fountain pens. Makes my handwriting more legible.

I was going to put this in the VP subsection but…one share.

Renminbi maybe?

P.S. There’s a whole thing on aluminum on fox biz this morning. (U.S. Markets closed for Labor Day)
