Ever since kindergarten when the janitor made our merry-go-round go super-super fast and I got flung onto the grass throwing up, I have been very sensitive to motion sickness and hyper-aware of G-forces. So…no, no. Probably not.
WWW Wednesday
WHAT have you finished reading recently? RFK: Raging Spirit, Chris Matthews; End of the Road, Gord McGill. Also finished The Hidden Coalition, which was about LBJ, Eisenhower, and 1950s politics. Interesting for the general history, but I don’t know that it really carried its thesis — that LBJ and Eisenhower were secret collaborators — beyond the title.
WHAT are you reading now? Nosing into both More Days at the Morisaki Bookshop and The Thirty-First of March, the latter being a short memoir of the last days of LBJ’s administration.
WHAT are you reading next? Who knows? I still have a JFK biography by Matthews, and a book on the Hoffa vs RFK tussle that might get my attention considering I just read about the trucking industry, and I’ve a book on the Gospel of Mark by Amy-Jill Levine which I’d planned to read in tandem with my Bible in a Year project. (As it happens, I’ve left the second messianic interlude and am now back in 2nd Kings/2nd Chronicles.) However, one never knows with me: last week I posted WWW Wednesday and decided to tackle End of the Road which had been absent entirely.

No. I don’t blame you, Stephen! 😂
A friend of mine tried to convince me to bungie jump off a bridge in New Zealand. He said that the experience would make me ‘feel alive’. I told him that I already knew I was alive and didn’t need the faux terror of thinking I was about to die to remind me…. Same with skydiving….
A decade or so ago my younger brother and sister went skydiving. they knew better than to even ask me 😀
I hope that first picture is fake. Because if it isn’t, the fact that someone that stupid is out on the road driving is scary. Probably one of those people who I see running the red lights more and more often 😦
