It’s the third Friday in September, the month in which superior people are born. I’ve been sick all week. I have antibiotics, now, and some parts of the illness are getting better. I haven’t gotten any writing done, as I’ve spent most of what energy I have working (from home).

It has been a very strange yet interesting week. Not just in my personal life.

Which brings us to the Friday Five: the top five (IMHO) stories of the week and five videos (plus my blog post).

Stories of the Week:

Everything You Know About Obesity Is Wrong.

Don’t Condemn People Who Don’t Evacuate for Hurricane Florence.
