TIL (Today I Learned)

[Angrboda]

"I ain't got time enough to meme!"


I learned that I'm not on the fringe in my views about the intersection between cognitive science and the religious mind, there's actually a fairly healthy mainstream that I lucked into. (And the lecturer who introduced me to this fact distributed 200 MB of such info he developed for presentations to those with a flash drive handy. Win!)

I also learned that my sister city, St. Paul, basically shuts down on Saturday. I had to walk over 1/2 a mile just to find a Quickie mart where I paid $8 for a ham sandwich, potato chips, and two pops. I mean literally everything was closed. McDonald's. Jimmy John's. Subway. Everything! I had to walk 3 blocks just to find an exit down from the skyway system to the street level. Everything, and I mean everything, was closed.
