Most of the links and stories I share are on social media, specifically Facebook and Twitter, but once in a while I aggregate some of what I found interesting in a blog post:

 
A staple of science fiction is the space elevator and it is rather surprising to find out that it may actually be possible:  https://observer.com/2019/09/moon-space-elevator-lunar-exploration-columbia-study/ />
 
Volcanoes always fascinate me, even extraterrestrial ones, and the fact that we might actually be able to predict an eruption on one of Jupiter’s moons?  awesome:  https://gizmodo.com/the-biggest-volcano-on-jupiter-s-molten-moon-io-is-like-1838192293 />
 
Despite the fact that I personally have never ridden any of the rides, I always liked the carnival atmosphere of this area and I’m sorry to see it fall into disfavor:  https://wdwnt.com/2019/09/primeval-whirl-at-disneys-animal-kingdom-to-cease-normal-operations-and-become-a-seasonal-attraction/ />
 
Amazon’s series about Middle Earth is something that I am watching very closely indeed.  I’m glad that they are returning to New Zealand:  https://wdwnt.com/2019/09/primeval-whirl-at-disneys-animal-kingdom-to-cease-normal-operations-and-become-a-seasonal-attraction/ />
 
Evolution is not a straight line, but has branches on a tree.  Anthropology is one of the subjects that I follow avidly:  https://phys.org/news/2019-09-rare-million-year-old-fossil-unearths-view.html />
 
Archeology and cultural anthropology go hand-in-hand, and again, it’s something I have always been fascinated by recent developments :  https://www.archaeology.org/news/8011-190917-bronze-age-tin />
 
Space may be the final frontier, but space junk is becoming a real problem.  Gotta luv the human race, we litter everywhere:  https://gizmodo.com/u-s-air-force-warns-an-american-and-russian-satellite-1838195500 />
 
This should increase the popularity of the Caribbean Beach resort:  https://wdwnt.com/2019/09/operating-hours-for-disney-skyliner-at-walt-disney-world-released/  Frank always liked staying there.  It’s a nice enough resort if you are fairly near the main building

 
Being old does not mean you are senile:  https://bigthink.com/mind-brain/super-agers-brain?rebelltitem=3#rebelltitem3 />
 
A hologram is going on tour:  https://www.billboard.com/articles/business/touring/8530108/whitney-houston-hologram-tour-dates   I always liked Whitney Houston – she had an incredible voice

 
Medicaid is NOT free:  https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2019/10/when-medicaid-takes-everything-you-own/596671/ />
 
There weren’t a lot of fun pictures today, but this meme tickled my fancy:
 
 
 
For what it is worth, I’ve tried RL.  The graphics are great, but it is only a beta version and getting an upgrade seems to be impossible
