I forgot to ask, but who kept changing the words to the song?
Alabaster cities (where?) I always thought, maybe from watching a video, that the statue of Liberty was involved. Boy was I wrong.
"whiter jubilee" o...k

If I could be allowed to drift off for a second...
The original words "O beautiful for Halcyon skies" which means, the pleasant way things used to be.
Now she (the author) could have been speaking about the pristine skies above Pike's Peak, in contrast to the smog in cities. But I wonder if she realized that she was living in what most people call the belle epoque, before the biggie wars and dirty cities. No, she might have been thinking of her own antebellum epoque, in (maybe) 1859 or so.
Halcyon vs spacious, hmm
Fruited vs enameled.
I'll read the reddit version, if there is one.
The ubiquitous pointing tool known as a "mouse" was probably first popularized by Apple, I wouldn't know the current line of propaganda...
Is it worth a blog entry?
No! But my wake-up dream was about trendy mice, and it kept morphing like wake-up dreams do. (get up) the really expensive new microsoft mouse looking like an ocarina (get up!) and old mice that people had borrowed and then abandoned, spread out all over the house.
When I got up for real, I wondered what a real modern Microsoft mouse looked like?
And I asked Google.
Google claims that there are $10 basic optical mouses.
Fruited vs enameled.
I'm confused.
(Why did they change words, or was it accidental?)

I'll read the reddit version, if there is one.
Why are all "patriots" republican and survivalists? (sorry, nothing to do with the poem, more like commercials on TV.)
Google AI refers to the "racially charged" third verse. I'm assuming that they meant the first two versions.
But the last version of the third verse goes on about refining gold... I don't really understand.

Fireworks!! It's Xmas.

Bombs bursting in air, gave proof through the night, that we are still here.

It looks like "Staples" was the only store not capitalizing on the whole tariff trend.
The people insisting on "Microsoft" as a brand are probably rare anyway, and the last time I bought a genuine microsoft product (a trackball) 25 years ago, it was only partially assembled (the inside cable was never attached.)
So there would not be any real reason to buy that brand, unlike apple (I really haven't looked, but do apple computers need special apple mice?)
And the next time you're at a party, mention that "Xerox" were the first to use mice commercially (not "Apple," nyah) but then the nerd and his girlfriend would know who invented mice, and the conversation would become boring.

A guy wonders if the gigantic warehouses full of unsold stuff from 2004 have been upgraded in price (because, "Supply chains, the weather, tariffs")

Makes you wonder if this is all smoke and mirror stuff... contractors can charge more for stuff, beeeecause Trump has gifted them with excuses to raise prices on inventory gathering dust
