Three Letters to the Editor I wrote supporting the Northern Lights Express passenger route, Part One

Many people I know love the Tom Clancy quote from his forward to the 1991 book Supertrains by Joseph Vranich.

"What if someone were to invent a magical new mode of transportation that was safe, energy efficient, and environmentally benign? Someone has. It’s called the train."

I saw the 2021 Family/Comedy Tom and Jerry movie

Tom and Jerry serves up classic slapstick, with entertaining world building, problem solving, and human conflicts, giving it an eight out of ten.

I love the Awake Caffeinated Chocolate Bars

If you want a caffeine boost, without having to brew a cup of bitter coffee that needs cream and sugar; try eating an Awake Caffeinated Chocolate Bar for breakfast.

Eating one or two Awake Bars like this one in the morning gets my mind awake for the day ahead.  It helps me that the UMD Duluth Stores sells these Awake Caffeinated Chocolate Bars at fifty percent off.

Today, I found this HRA notice on my front apartment door.

 

Monday, I hope that both elevators will be repaired and ready for passenger service for the next five to ten years.

Half-Life: Opposing Force - game helpful hint

In Chapter 10: Foxtrot Uniform after you find the two soldiers pinned down by snipers; the first sniper you encounter is in a tower to the right of the structure door.  Instead of fighting the sniper face-to-face, backtrack out the crawl hole, to the area after the red containers where the crates and camouflage net is, and then aim your Spore Launcher above the head where the sniper should be.  Two or three shots should take out the sniper.

In addition, you can fire your Spore Launcher from outside the compound to take out another sniper in the second tower located on the same wall as the first tower.
