What are you watching?

I just finished a HBO Max mini series called Mare of Easttown with Kate Winslet.

It was really good, crime thriller. I'd highly recommend it to anyone who has HBO Max.

What are you reading?

Always on the look out for good reads. I'm a non-fiction guy most typically history, military or foreign affairs tho I will make an effort to educate myself on hot current issues, e.g., AI.

What are you currently reading, last read and next read?

My list:

Currently - Age of Revolutions by Fareed Zakaria (almost done)
- Discussion of the great societal revolutions from the 1600's to present day. He's always insightful, articulate and analytically objective. I enjoy his Sunday...

It's the Foundation set up by the Eli Lily and Company founders. Apparently all have been gong great guns and the Colleges and Universities in Indiana are benefitting, as well as a scholarship fund and a bunch for local charities. Kind of under the radar gorillia in it's field.

This is from a poster on the board I found this on....I'm aware of Eli Lily but just never think of it like I do Microsoft, Apple, Tesla, etc.

The intent was good, execution poor. Can't seem to fix it from my tablet. In any event, Happy 4th fellas. Finally got it! Many thanks to General Hertling for reminding us of the Founder's thinking and the essence of our national DNA on this day

I only know about the linked Article because he's a 1981 Notre Dame grad and this New Yorker story was linked on a ND board.

But what a fascinating read, I am not sure when this guy sleeps.
