Time to enter the restaurant buisness?

Maybe good for a Sunday roundup.

Interesting how Newsmax picked “has pierced our illusion of certainty and control” for their headline

https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/john-roberts-high-school-graduation/2020/05/23/id/968733/

While CNN and Time found other things to stress.

Eh, they both led with the line in the opening paragraph. I think you are grasping at straws

https://mishpacha.com/sometimes-mashiach-is-not-the-solution/


Quote
"Imagine that you are at a wedding of very fine people. At the end of the chasunah, as you wish mazel tov to one of the mechutanim, he remarks, “I wish that my late parents were alive and with us tonight.” Your eyes mist and you cluck sympathetically, and he continues, “…because they would have picked up the bill!”

What would you think of him?

When we wish for Mashiach to pay our bills, heal our ailments, or help us with any other of our myriad needs, is that called yearning for Mashiach?"

Poor kid.

You're behind the times. Name has been changed. Last part of the name is Xii.

But it's not the name that makes this kid a poor kid, it's the type of parents.

X Ć A-Xii isn't any better. But al least I can try to pronounce it now. "Ex ah /ē/ aksi"
I'm not who you think I am.

Who said it's better? The problem isn't the name but the wacky parents. The main difference about the updated version of the name is that it might be legal to put on a California birth certificate (which is why it's Xii at the end and not XII - Roman numerals seem to be non-compliant).

Don't let the URL fool you, this is a really interesting article about a theory by a great thinker that seems to be proven right.

Unfortunately I don't find time to read books these days, I did read an essay or a summary of Neil How's theory several years ago (probably courtesy of John Mauldin) and have been loosely following every since.

It'll be interesting to see how many of those lower paying jobs come back as soon as the $600/week ends.
