"The word "wassail" originated as a borrowing from the Old Norse salutation ves heill, corresponding to Old English hál wes þú or wes hál – literally meaning 'be in good health' or 'be fortunate'."

The "Twilight Zone" episode you referenced was titled "It's a Good Life" with Bill Mumy and a young Cloris Leachman.
First,
DG, Hope your minor surgery went well and you heal soon.
But excuse my forwardness by telling you it doesn't work.
I have had that frontal Lobotomy to remove right wing calamities out of my skull/s rolodex.
It is a temporary bliss. The damn Frontal Lob keeps growing back.
Hypnotism is useless and assimilation is not viable.
Be well....
I'm a 21 year veteran of CNA tech and have known multiple folks converted from file clerks as you were. We moved across the loop to Randolph and Franklin in 2018. Red building now houses Northern Trust. For a long time we used to say that CNA never, ever made the right choice for the right reasons. Keep up the good work.
Kinzinger, like Cheney, would still be cheerfully buggering away at the republic were it not for their recent falling out with their party, and will cheerfully go back to doing so at their earliest convenience.
To my mind, William Barber's biggest strength isn't his religion (though he may have gotten it there) but his ability to turn ANY question considered into a discussion of policy. If he can teach ten more people to do what he can do, the world will be a measurably better place.
Your story reminded me a little of the Dar Williams song "The Christians and the Pagans" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vggo_9EDZU
I hope your medical adventure went well. I'm a really big fan of modern medicine.
Thank you again for the podcast. The big storm that was supposed to dump two to four feet of snow on us as it went through dumped more like six inches, and was mostly rain instead. Now, this whole week it's supposed to rain and I'm hoping that the NWS is accurate this time...

I was checking out "The Expanse Season 6 Finale Explained" on yt when I saw this screen full of soldiers vital signs and names and knew you would get a kick out of it. I didn't get a lot of them but you should be able to get most. You're an old heinleinian so I'm sure you know who 'rico, j' is for example.

Looking forward at the House GOP majority.
Just how much tax dollars will they be able to waste as they use tax dollars to campaign with house antics over Big bad Spending Biden?
I am certain they can spend an awful lot. Seeing how the government budget has been taken out of the House GOP hands until Sept next year and how disappointed McCarthy is with McConnell for it. When McCarthy's position as speaker is still on the loose. A McCarthy E Coyote after the Roadrunner speaker carton.
The competition between the House GOP hell bent lunacy and the Trump special announcements that there will be an announcement by him. Are going to be competing blood sucking bats after the the last slug to sick the last blood from.
I see great fantastic promise of levels of insanity and undermining and self flogging beyond the Gingrich standard.
The GOP is going to require an Elon Musk type level of a dating service platform for them to have hope of meeting up with someone that will be willing to put up with getting that ick near them. It will end with hope.
The Marge Green is now available, but what disparate GOP ingrate would even dare dating a girl like that who straps on an AK-47 to have anal sex with her man, (victim).
My expectation that the fiscal conservative House will lead itself into a spending spree that drains the House Budget.
Can the House go bankrupt? Any spending, any budgeting for House spending to hire investigators such will require a House spending bill, the senate must agree and I do not think dark Brandon is going to sign such a bill to fund the House frolic spending bill.
