The last two days I listened to the Cybersecurity Daily podcast. There was some interesting stuff about cybersecurity and the election.
Today I started the tagged book which is full of valuable but infuriating information. Today‘s learning/deep thought was about the Covid-19 pandemic and the response which essentially decided who deserves health.

pickA book about the finding of the wreck of the Titanic in September 1985 & the subsequent expeditions to bring to the surface items such as dining sets, luggage & jewellery. Thousands of items have been recovered & yet so much remains down there & not even the ship's lists give the full picture of the items carried. Rumours have abounded since the beginning about millions of pounds' worth of diamonds & gold being interred in the first class safe.
pick4 US Presidents have been assassinated in office & this book offers a fascinating look at what could have happened if they had survived. Abraham Lincoln, James Garfield, William McKinley, & John F. Kennedy never got to complete their presidential terms, as each succumbed to an assassin's bullet. After examining what happened in the lead-up to their deaths & the weapons used, the author then considers what could have happened if they had lived.

In 1935 when Eleanor Roosevelt was asked if a woman can ever be president she replied “Not soon, but someday.”

My goals are to walk during the day every day while listening to some form of nonfiction, clear out my stack of magazines a little bit, and read or listen to 5 NF books.

Yesterday I worked from my office in DC and was surprised to see deer on my walk. I never see them at home in the suburbs!
I picked a lighter podcast for a Friday, and continue to alternate between the tagged book and Obama‘s Promised Land on audio and The Third Pole in print.
