Fishy randominutiae
Been awhile — have been busy entertaining, hosting, building snow forts, seeing disappointing mime shows (not surprised?), drinking too much…
It’s (incandescent) lights out for Australia…but will they introduce a robust plan to manage disposal of the fluorescent bulbs? Good on ya, mates! I hope the demand and competition will make prices go down, though, or else the poor may suffer…those bulbs can be pricey!
Apparently everyone wants to move to Spain. (Yes, even me.) This is not really news to anyone, is it? Also, (in Europe) Spanish citizens are the most optimistic about the future, French the most pessimistic. Such a wide gulf — yet only those hope-insulating Pyrénées sit between the two countries.
Heavy metal? EX-cel-lent! No…canned tuna is bad for you. I hate to admit it, but it seems my friends were right. Although they were a bit rude about it, refusing to “let me” put tuna into a delicious salad (would have been so much more delicious with mercuric tuna in it, guys!) I was making, in my house, for them. Of course, unless I’m mistaken, this newly-reported problem has nothing to do with canned tuna — fresh fish has the same problem, no? Let’s all calm down. Go on eating yer fish, folks, just don’t overdo it. And, by the way — the “good” canned tuna from Portugal that I buy, packed in olive oil, is pretty darn good…no matter what my fish-snob “friends” say. It’s the mercury that gives it that special something.
