Fox News: Gil Gerard, actor who played Buck Rogers, dies at 82
Back when science fiction could be sexy, Gil Gerard was Buck Rogers.
Winter is tough on Sparky. He makes the best of it, sticking his snout in the snow looking for mice or walking around with a frozen turd in his mouth like Triumph the Insult Dog. To throw him a bone, I took him along for my hair cut appointment.
Anita has been cutting my hair for thirty years, and everybody at the shop likes Sparky. He gets a lot of attention, and was exhausted.
We finally have a sunny day, so here is security cam footage of Sparky taking his first piss of the day. It’s 8:30 am and 14o , so under watchful eyes, Sparky is on his own.
A month ago, after my Keurig shit the bed, I replaced it with a Ninja. When Hertz was the biggest car rental company, Avis advertised that, “We’re number 2, so we try harder.” Maybe Keurig had been slacking.
The Ninja is a good setup. I am not a coffee snob, but figure the Ninja has enough brewing options that anyone should be able to dial it in.
How does the corporate media manage to make the Epstein story so boring?

NYT: Biden Has Raised Little of What He Needs to Build a Presidential Library
Obama’s Presidential Center has a brutalist style that belongs in Mega City from the Dredd movie. Probably good for Chicago. The building will include a vegetable garden, a branch of the city library, and a basketball gym. That sounds nice. The top floor should have a penthouse lair.
Biden isn’t doing as well.
“The Biden staff, they ruined any type of good library for him,” Mr. Morgan said. “He’ll be lucky to have a bookmobile.”
Clinton’s library looks great, but there is money to go bigger.
As a point of contrast, Mr. Morgan said he had dinner with former President Bill Clinton last week to discuss a possible donation to his library for an expansion.
We’re watching Stranger Things. Sparky doesn’t like it so much.
The Obama Presidential Library is not a handsome building, but it reminds me of something. No, not a prick, marital aid, or anything like that. I can’t quite place it.
Choosing a retirement gift is tricky because you may not know the person very well. Not just what does the person want or need, but what are they going to want or need after reaching a milestone that changes everything.
