I don't understand why so many people out there think their perspective on a particular cigar is important, or worth, enough that strangers would care about it.It occurs to me now that this same thing could be said for every opinion I share that isn't asked for. Hmmm...

^^^ Their perspective on a particular cigar is able to make money, so it's important to them.

so, we shouldn't click the 'like' or 'awesome' buttons when someone posts the cigar they are smoking, and they shouldn't mention whether they liked it or not, because no one else cares???

I remember that when I first showed up on this list as a newish cigar smoker that someone mentioned they didn't think noobs should review sticks. They didn't have enough exposure to make informed observations.
Anyway I was picking nits about opinions.

When I'm making eggs over easy, the yolk always breaks when I crack the egg. If I'm making an omelet, or scrambled eggs, the yolk never breaks when I crack the egg. How can this be?

That's like my alarm clock... it's one of those projection models (I love it because it's easy to read at night, but adds zero ambient light to the room, unlike the ones where the face lights up)... it also reads/displays the temperature, and blinks back and forth between the temp and the time, about every 3 seconds (even though the temp remote sensor stopped working, so the temp display is just a few dashes). In the 10 or so years I've owned the thing, there's only been a handful of times I've caught it displaying the time. I only want to see the time and not the temp dashes, but no.... 99.999% of the time I look at it, that's what I get. It's the weirdest thing, like it knows when I'm going to look and gives me what I don't want.

Speaking of going 'round in circles, something occurred to me while I was out mowing this morning.
I'm sure many in D.C. will consider it a stupid idea, but:
Perhaps our economic downturn was caused by disregarding the strategy of taking 2 weeks to "flatten the curve", and replacing it with a strategy of paying people not to work, and telling them that they don't have to pay their rent at the same time? By showering the poorest decision makers in the country with freshly printed money, and releasing them from their rightfully owed debts and responsibilities, inflation was inevitable?
Nah, that's just crazy talk. Surely the problems all stemmed from The Fed increasing interest rates up from near zero by a percent or two over time. Must be Donald Trump's fault I guess. Or just Republicans in general.
Yeah, that's the ticket.

They put millions of people out of work, then patt themselves on the back when they finally allowed people to work again.
