I'm always a little puzzled by standard present day corporate news mentions of the "Iran-Contra Affair".

Anyway, meet Elliott Abrams in his younger days. And drug smugglers from Honduras.

I want to make a very large rag rug. Will probably do it in sections then join them together.

Anyone ever done that? I’m thinking of using the Amish Toothbrush style in a rectangle shape as it seems the easiest.
I have some old sheets I’m going to dye and shred for it instead of putting them in a landfill.

Tonight I’m wishing that Becky Chambers would add more books to the Monk and Robot Series. I’d love to learn more about that calm, hopeful world.
