Volume 12 - Day 2/364, 2020 - Thursday...

Many parts of Texas may be in a drought state, but apparently there is enough water near the edge of nowhere that we can just let water spew willy-nilly into a field of nothing. They are putting in a water line from Granger to Jarrell, and this would be (could be) about the half way point. I am chocker-block full of criticisms about this water line and the rest of the early American engineering that goes on in these parts, but I will spare you those ugly details. Suffice it to say, I don't know how long the water was spewing forth, but when I returned home this evening, I did not notice that it was still spewing. It was dark, but I think if it was still spewing, I would have noticed.

And now for something completely different...

  • Percentage of those M.P.s who are being charged with murder or attempted murder: 18
  • Amount of Danish parliamentary candidate paid to run an election campaign ad on a pornography website in May: $500
  • Percentage fewer votes he received in that election compared with his previous run:75
  • Number of proposals in the Ontario premier's 2019 budget that focus on making alcohol cheaper: 3
  • Number of times that "beer," "wine," or "alcohol" is mentioned in the budget: 52
  • That "climate change" is: 17
  • Rank of Texan among U.S. accents that Americans find sexiest: 1
  • Of "general American": 32
