All victims of 9/11…
Rest in peace
Rock On Nightbirde!

Remember, Remember the 3rd of November!
As election day 2020 approaches it is difficult to say how it will be remembered.
Politicians and pundits have been insisting for many election cycles that “this” election (fill in the year) is the most important ever! What is it they say about broken clocks?
Hopefully you have already voted or are planning to do so. Hoping against hope, it would seem, may no voter be disenfranchised on a technicality!
Acting (consciously) being generally reckoned better than reacting, kindly consider the following:
- Election Survival Kit from gratefulness.org
- Election Freaking You Out? (Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn from 2018 on KQED)
And less you think this is all a bit pie in the sky, consider some of the experiences of Kabat-Zinn from his university days related in a 2017 Guardian article.
Similarly, the voices of Mahatma Gandhi and Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., and in our own day, George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery, and so many others, cry out.
All in all, whether voting, or business, or life, be aware, be safe!
Safe and Secure!
While pulling together a checklist of recommendations for online security and privacy, it occurred to me…why reinvent the wheel!

Everyone is entitled to [their] own opinion…
…but not [their] own facts.
Kudos to Utah Jazz player Rudy Gobert, who is humble enough to admit his mistake.
Though I am not a doctor (nor do I play one on TV), for credible updates and commentary, may I recommend the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), Dr. Anthony Fauci.
For an example of leadership in the political realm may I recommend Lee Hsien Loong, Prime Minister of Singapore.
But you were always a good man of business, Jacob…
Business!’ cried the Ghost [of Jacob Marley], wringing its hands again. “Mankind was my business; charity, mercy, forbearance, and benevolence, were, all, my business. The deals of my trade were but a drop of water in the comprehensive ocean of my business!”
