WooHoo, another music subscription service.
As a teen I modified a TV antenna to pull in radio stations 101 WRIF out of Detroit and 105 WWCK out of Flint. It cost nothing.

Some calories more harmful than others
Short version – Soft drinks are bad for you. There was a time when I drank 2 liters of Coca-Cola a day. No exaggeration. I don’t remember the last time I had one.
On a side note. I find it amusing that we Americans call carbonated soft drinks by different names. I have found that.
– In the Great Lakes and mid-west areas it is called “pop”
– Most places in Northeast megalopolis call it “soda”
– Many place out west call it “soda pop”
– Down South, everything is “co-cola”

43% of milenials plan to leave their jobs within 2 years
“They don’t believe business shares their values, they don’t think business is doing enough to prepare them for the future, and they don’t feel business is sufficiently committed to improving society.”

    As of about 10am Pacific Time (1pm Eastern Time) today, Mozilla’s Firefox v60.0.1 US-English 64-bit Windows file did download and it appears to install (on Window 10, in my case) successfully. However, the installation is actually not successful and the browser will not run. I’ve reinstalled v60.0.0 until Mozilla updates the installation file on their site.

    As always, thanks for the updates.

    Glad to see you kicked the soda habit. I was raised on the stuff (I’m 48 now) and at one point in my 20’s and into my early thirties I was probably drinking 2 litres, or somtimes more, a day (in the form of several 44oz’ers.) Finally stopped and these days I’ll only have one at a cookout or maybe if we order a pizza. Don’t miss the stuff at all.

    UPDATE 7pm EDT / 4pm PDT: It appears that Mozilla’s Firefox Setup 60.0.1.exe file (US English, Windows 64-bit) has been updated and the browser now operates following installation. File MD5 hash is now 40EC4C3CF6D75A9AE677EA2992516E6B
