I found the stop filming everything woman tedious.
The people she is describing are vacuous, not worthy of regard. 

If I walk a scenic path carrying a camera, it makes me more attentive
If I walk a scenic path without a camera, there's often regret.

Interesting, and annoying. I just wonder what the people who cover this shit up eat and drink? One would think that not poisoning themselves would be a motivating factor for finding alternatives. 3M has so many smart people, right?

Is your water the quality you would like it to be? It might look clear and taste fine, but could it be better? An under sink or whole house water filtration system from 3M can help reduce particulates, sediment, chlorine taste and odour from your water.

Here is an article that foretells the end of the inhabited world............ or something of that sort. Well alright maybe it will be quicker if we use Nukes or a giant asteroid smacks Mother Earth.

Lengthy article, perhaps an interesting read.

Let me join the happy club by reporting on my 6-monthly PSA test I did yesterday. My PSA level was even lower than in December, so my doctors and I are all happy.
