Senses working overtime #415

1 Wildflowers in California




2 Walking in the woods


Author and naturalist Henry David Thoreau on the value of walking in the woods:

"I come out to these solitudes, where the problem of existence is simplified. I get away a mile or two from the town into the stillness and solitude of nature, with rocks, trees, weeds, snow about me. I enter some glade in the woods, perchance, where a few weeds and dry leaves alone lift themselves above the surface of the snow, and it is as if I had come to an open window. I see out and around myself.


3 The end of the music business




4 Dominion vs Fox News

This was a fascinating story this week.





5 Taylor Swift!


Not only does she do 44-song sets, but Taylor Swift also does her due diligence.

According to a lawyer handling a lawsuit against celebrities who promoted FTX, Swift was the only superstar approached who asked FTX, “Can you tell me that these are not unregistered securities?” Swift apparently didn’t get the answer she was looking for, because she turned down the $100 million endorsement deal she was offered and avoided the legal mess others like Larry David, Shaq, and Tom Brady now find themselves in.

Karma really is her boyfriend.


Overtime: RIP Ahmad Jamal 92
