Fascinating stuff for your Monday. Or not.
Job Opportunity
I’m the guy you want. I play E minor pretty well.
The “Ashes to Ashes” Clown Suit Story
Six years since the last one! This needs to be a series.
Know Your Memes
If you haven’t watched I Think You Should Leave you should. I had to rewatch this because hot dog guy is becoming a meme. And that’s what really matters these days.
Happy Birthday to Me and this Hero
Very entertaining Heroes era Bowie TV appearance.
Hmmm
New Bowie single celebrating his birthday.
Nice enough, but lacks the gut-punch raw emotion of Lennon’s original.
Just What I Needed
Greatest New Wave song ever or greatest song ever?
Tough call tonight …
Crank It Up
I’ve been blasting this for a couple of weeks. Enjoy.
Hey! I Can Last Four Seconds
New developments in How Little Can I Exercise: if you crank the above heavy flywheel – zero resistance bike at max effort for FOUR SECONDS at one-minute intervals, you see:
– increased overall fitness
– increased muscle mass and leg strength
– reduced stiffness of your arteries
The HIIT (high intensity interval training) workouts have gone berserk. Fifteen four-second bursts, three days a week for several weeks, gets you the benefit. They’ve finally studied it in old schlubs like us.
JUST LOOK AT THESE HAPPY FOOLS!
It’s like, one minute of actual exercise per day. Story here.
How much does this surely overly-expensive proprietary bike cost? They won’t say on their website. Makerbot build me one!
Music Will Save Us All?
As this site’s extremely senior medical correspondent, I’m happy to report that I received my first COVID 5g chip a couple of weeks ago and am scheduled to inject the second one tonight. My corpuscles and sinews have nearly hit the intended full metal zone vibrato. More on the uh, science, here.
