One of the things I keep thinking about is how it wonât just be the job of the next president to rebuild everything broken, but the one after that, and the one after that. Whole generations will be living through the aftermath of this bullshit.

My grandson asked why we took so long to get into WWII. Was it because of Pearl Harbor that we got in? "No" I answered, we took our time getting into the war because we were selling war to all sides. We waited as long as we could before disappointing some of our our customers.

I remember wanting a Pac-Man lunchbox. Not sure it existed at the time. Settled for Dukes of Hazzard. Boy, that didnât age well. A decade and a half later, I got an MST3K lunchbox when I was buying any MST3K merch I could get my hands on. Still have it (unused) in a box somewhere.

Almost 4,000 years ago during an era we call the Old Babylonian period, a student formed a round tablet out of clay and drew a circle on it for a math assignment. The area of the circle (45) was then calculated using an approximation of pi (â 3).
