The balls in the picture below are all the same color. Yes, they really are.
Read the explainer. Go have a drink. Whatever works for you…

Bingo
Via xkcd, of course:
I lived in Japan in 1989 and remember a few people wearing masks on their subway. I asked a local about it and they told me when you are sick you wear a mask. I recall vaguely thinking that sounded like a good idea. Fast forward to today, it sounds like a really good idea.

Tight Fit
I live in Brooklyn and my garage is a very tight fit. Everyone has to get out before I drive in and were I not thin I would need a smaller car. But this is impressive…
Watch until the end to see him getting out of the car and into his place.

Vaccine Passport
There’s been quite a bit of brouhaha about vaccine passports lately. My second shot was 15 days ago, so I have my NY State Excelsior Pass, digital confirmation that I’ve been vaccinated. Apparently it would be useful to go see the Mets or Yankees, both of whom require vaccination or a recent negative test to attend a game. That appears to be the situation in New York. In Florida the governor has apparently declared that requiring proof of vaccination is prohibited, but the Miami Heat are offering designated vaccine sections. Baseball in Florida appears to just require you to wear a mask. A Miami food festival is requiring either a recent negative test or a vaccine (same as baseball in NY) which they feel still works with the governor’s rule (you don’t need the vaccine if you have a negative test).
Norwegian Cruise Line has announced that all passengers (plus crew) must be vaccinated. Other cruise lines are following suit or offering specific cruises that are vaccine only. A bar in Denver is open only for vaccinated patrons.
These all seem like reasonable business decisions. Some businesses will decide to be stricter than others. Capitalism at work. We’ve been requiring kids to get vaccinations to attend school for ages, what’s the big deal here?
Get your shot…

Cannabis Update
When you get emails from Business Insurance magazine inviting you to a webinar on “2021 Cannabis Update: Session 1: State of the Industry” you know the world is changing.
And that’s just Session 1, I wonder how many sessions are planned?
