Thanking my phone for informing me that because of ‘light traffic’, this morning’s journey was only 17 minutes. Much appreciated. Now if only it had told me that on arrival it was going to take 30 minutes to find a parking space, I could have fine-tuned my total travel time.

Are you in pain by having to gas up your own car? There’s an app for that.
On-demand gas startup Yoshi expands to 16 cities to end your pain at the pump … so now we are so lazy we can’t even be bothered to go gas up our own cars.
But what do we need them for anyway? Our food is delivered and Amazon does everything else. Our entertainment is virtual and streamed. We work at home.

Asbestos … seems like it is coming back!
The EPA's own staff are aghast that Trump is bringing back asbestos "The Trump administration's plan to bring back asbestos is right in line with Trumpist ideology that any science that interferes with profits is a hoax (Trump claims that the asbestos-cancer link is a conspiracy to help the mafia make money on asbestos removal contracts), and the fact that the leading Russian asbestos company (which has ties to Putin) put Trump's face on their packaging is just an extra too-shitty-to-be-true detail for all of us to ponder as we die of mesothelioma in a few years."(via Boing Boing)
I don’t think for one minute that had Trump not started Twitter Wars, we would find The Russian Embassy taking to that medium to make fun of him. So glad they do.
Russian Embassy mocks Trump’s Space Force logos "the embassy tweeted "Good Morning, Space Forces!" along with a graphic of a rocket being launched and features the Russian flag. The tweet also links to a Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation's Space Forces website."
Call it a public service. Links to the first 8 of the BBC TV Series Grumpy Old Men that started in 2003.
TSA Won’t Make You Remove Liquids From Your Bag at These Airports
Bay Area people … Oakland is on the list … San Jose and San Francisco is not … nothing like making it easy for the passengers … right?
They’ve also never agreed on whether an iPad is a computer or not.
Why people insist on writing long blog posts in the form of short tweets is beyond me - but, in this case on recommendation from a good friend - I ploughed through - and am now sharing tags of topic : Brexit immigration experience process incompetence British Australian visa
MicroBlog For Twitter Users thankyou @macgenie
Just had a great conversation that was about how we might get seemingly disparate organizations focussed on working together, to broaden the common message, rather than working separately.
During the conversation I was reminded of The People’s Front of Judea

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: Why Do We ‘Write Blank Checks for War’ But ‘Our Pockets Are Empty’ When It Comes to Medicare for All?
"In an interview with CNN's Chris Cuomo Wednesday evening, New York congressional candidate and democratic socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez questioned how Congress can "write unlimited blank checks for war" and pass the GOP's $2 trillion tax cut for the wealthy, but when it comes to proposals that would help every American—such as Medicare for All—"our pockets are empty.""The Full Story

A nice side ‘benny’ of the On This Day extension is that old posts show up - of course.
But now when you see them - and those ‘odd characters’ show up, just boot up Mars Edit and all is fixed - lickety split.
