Looks like a win-win for the Professor and Zeus alike.

But scrolling through the rest of the doggie pictures, ma'am, you are looking awfully cozy with that little dust mop dog.

How's the Althouse incandescent bulb stash holding up? Looking back a few years, this was a topic here - found close to 20 "light bulb" tags.

Lights Out For America’s Favorite Light Bulb
When industry and environmental groups claim that a regulation will solve all problems, consumers beware. It’s probably green cronyism in disguise.

"How's the Althouse incandescent bulb stash holding up?"

I probably have a lifetime supply. I don't keep a lot of lights on in my house and rarely find myself having to change a bulb.

Ann Althouse म्हणाले...

I hope I'll live so long that I will run out, but I chose not to oversupply. Tomorrow is my birthday, and I'll be 63. I'd like to live at least 30 more years, but I think the chances are slim.

I'm in my early seventies. I have had robust health and a durable back all my life. So it turns out that I won one of the prizes........Fitzgerald said that the two greatest gifts were enormous wealth and physical magnetism. They're ok when you're in your twenties, but health is the glittering prize when you're old.

That Amiri Baraka fellow didn't know how to count. I'm sure he suffered a few indignities along the way, but his life didn't seem especially accursed. Just the opposite perhaps. We live in a world where people starve to death and mothers maim their children to make them more effective beggars. His burden was having trouble hailing a cab. This put him in a chronic state of aggrieved funk. He didn't know how to count his blessings.....He was, by turns, a black nationalist, a Muslim, and a Communist. Those identities have wildly conflicting ideals and purposes, but they're allied in their mistrust of Western bourgeoise democracies. Western civ was the envelope that rubbed him raw, but it was the only envelope that would mail his message--with franking privileges......I recently saw Beckett's play, Krapp's Last Tape. In that play, the protagonist, who is sixty nine, listens in on tape he made when he was thirty nine. In that tape, the protagonist agonizes over how stupid his younger self was. The present time protagonist agonizes over how stupid his thirty nine year old self was to hate his younger self,and hates himself for hating himself. The glue, the one constant that holds these evolving identities together as they move through time, is self hatred. Perhaps Baraka was able to project all his self hatred on the enveloping society. In that case he didn't make such a bad bargain with life. Bernie Madoff didn't know how to count either, but he lived most of his life as a rich man.

Big Mike- MN is a wonderful place, sadly now run by lunatics- if I moved back to the Upper Midwest I'd probably live in (shudder) Wisconsin!

re: 30 more years, you can always reply on, ya know, Obamacare :-/

I get the sense that Meade encourages you into a wider variety of physical activities.

Colorado pot shops likely targets of cartels, say experts

Unintended consequences?

As the smoke settles from the first week of legal marijuana sales in Colorado, experts are warning that sanctioned pot dealers could become targets for the very folks they put out of business.

Taking over a trade once ruled by drug cartels and turning it into an all-cash business could make pot shops prime targets for extortion, black-market competition and robbery. One veteran border narcotics agent told FoxNews.com Colorado's legal pot industry will find it hard to keep the criminals from horning in on a lucrative business they once controlled.

Michael K म्हणाले...

Happy birthday, Ann. I'm 75 and may have a lifetime supply of bulbs but my sister just realized that they are gone. She didn't realize that this was crony capitalism at its best with a GOP Congress and Fred Upton. There are not enough lamp posts when things really get going. Too many politicians. The 1789 French had the right idea. They were a bit too tough on Lavoisier, though.

alan markus म्हणाले...

I thought maybe Ann was going to build up a huge stash of bulbs and then set up her own Amazon shop accessible only through this site. I myself am 61 - found myself thoroughly confused in the lighting aisle at WalMart. Needed a 65-watt spot for some recessed lighting - bought a two-pack - installed one of them and turned out not to be "dimmable" - then I looked further and found out they were flourescent. I have some fixures that are not on the dimmer circuit, so I swapped one out. I have all kinds of fixtures with different types of bulbs - I can tell this is going to be a real pain in the ass.

You need to use the LED bulbs on the dimmer circuits, or put in a different type of dimmer, which is not worth it, since the LED bulbs are much better than the fluorescent ones anyway.
