Good morning! Hope you had a great weekend. The weekend was not too exiting for my wife and me. We did replenish our freezers for the next few months. I believe we have enough supplies to last us through a good part of spring 2022.
We decided to cook some ribs in the oven. We have done this several times, but due to the fact that my wife is not too fond of such delicacy we have not cooked them in about three years. I pulled the ribs from one of the freezers and put it in a refrigerator for three days. On Friday evening I took them out of the fridge and they were still partly frozen.
On Saturday morning after breakfast I rubbed some salt and pepper on the ribs. Like I mentioned, she is not too fond of ribs or BBQ sauce. I wanted to add some that we got at Trader Joe’s a couple weeks ago. I ended using the sauce on my dish. My wife used an Asian sauce which went very well with ribs. We also bought that sauce at Trader Joe’s.
I was going to set the oven at no more than 300F, but my wife suggested 325F to get them done faster. The ribs went in around 07:00 AM. After showering and getting dressed, I went down to my office for a 2-hour block.
Later that morning my wife and I sat down for a cup of triple espresso. We chatted and decided to get a couple items at a specialty grocery store in St. Paul. We turned off the oven and headed out. In retrospect, we should have removed the ribs from the oven. We had lunch around 01:00 PM and the ribs got a little dry for my taste. We had them with brown rice and black beans. We both enjoyed them, but once a year is enough. The taste is very unique like turkey. We have turkey on Thanksgiving Day and perhaps Christmas. I guess most people do the same in this part of the country.
On a separate note, I ran into the article Was Our Universe Created in a Laboratory? by Avi Loeb published on Scientific American on October 15, 2021. The article starts with the word “Opinion” which puts it into perspective.
I am not going to get into the implications of the ideas in the article. My parents taught me never to discuss religion, money or sex. Such subjects are very opinionated and it is hard to get a general consensus. That said; here we are talking about the article. The reason for me to bring it up is due to the fact that for the past three decades or more, when my wife and I talk in private, I have described to her the idea of multiple universes generated by beings more advanced than us. In such universes there are some actual beings and many artifacts. The idea behind is to study scenarios that in general fall outside our comprehension and interests.
I have to tell you that as soon as I read the article, I ran to my wife to tell her about it. We both thought it was very interesting.
In my thoughts and opinion, the article does not exclude a superior being that is above all levels. It just puts such being above the more advanced civilization(s) that at this point are able to generate universes.
I will try to contact the author of the article and let him know that I really enjoyed reading it. After an hour or so of sending my message to the author, I received a reply. Thanks. Continue reading “Best Time to Buy and Sell Stock with Transaction Fee”
