The last plane I worked on in Bridgewater.
A De Havilland 7

Short take off and landing. Slow cruise speed.

Gorgeous plane. Beautiful work by Dynamic.

This clip of animals with high IQ's was amaziing.....

There are two scenes of artistic elephants that I find almost hard to believe. One starts around 1:52 and the other around 7:45.

I have no idea why this ended up in my suggested videos since I never watch skating, but I watched it anyway.

This is Galina Valieva, a 15 year old Russian skater, skating in her first competition as an adult. She ends up scoring higher than anyone has ever scored in woman's skating.

Quite an amazing fusion of artistic expression and athleticism, which I haven't seen since Oksana Baiul's performance in the Olympics in 1994.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQIntekPlfo

For the second time this month, Kamila Valieva has registered the highest-ever scores in women's singles figure skating.

The 15-year-old Russian broke the world records she set a few weeks ago at Finlandia Trophy with a runaway triumph at Skate Canada International in Vancouver on Saturday (30 October), the second Grand Prix of the Olympic season.

Listening to it. It is the first time I've ever listened to Musk. Quite good. I will probably listen to it again as soon as it finishes.

I did listen to the C-Span panel three times in a row. On the third listen I heard some things I'd not heard the first two times.

I'm always listening while doing other things on my computer. Sometimes what I am doing on the computer takes my full concentration and it blocks out from my mind any sounds. Or, comprehension of those sounds.

How do you listen to things such as the above?

I am near the end of the first listen.

Two things.

I have never really heard him speak before. He comes across as 100% genuine. Contrast him to Elizabeth Warren who comes across as 100% in genuine.

The second one is quirky. They all made the common mistake of referring to the last book of The Bible as "Revelations" rather than its proper name:

1. Agree

2. Agree. My wife and I noticed that too. A all too common miss pronounced Bible book in my experience.

To your former question: We watched on a laptop with no background distractions.

I'm liking that Elon started cutting his own hair, but what I'm really liking that it's so obvious.

Since I either have things like this on as either background or in conjunction with what I am doing at these keyboards ... I'm taking it in mostly by listening and little by watching. But, in this case, I did spend some minutes looking at him. And, it was not at all apparent to me he was cutting his own hair.
