Congratulations!
Snowing again, Cambridge? Really?
Thanks!
Took a break to watch it today. I actually enjoyed it. George was always my favorite Beatle, while Paul was second. No doubt that McCartney is a musical genius.
Which store? Thank you for posting..

Yes, those are great . Pellegrino has a peach essence bubbly offering that is perfect. But I don’t see that type of drink much in restaurants.
My default is usually soda if I don’t stick with water. But it’s nice to have sweet tea as an option.
It was a delight to do this podcast on the Declaration of Independence (The Last Best Hope, Rothermere American Institute at Oxford) with Adam Smith interviewing Lige Gould, me, and others. Part 1 today, Part 2 next week :)
