Friday Varia and Quick Hits

It’s finally feeling like spring here in North Dakotaland and the flood waters are receding. In fact, today we’ll see highs in the 60s and it looks like the trees and our gardens are finally waking up from what felt like a very long winter.

We also appear to be on North Dakota’s infamous 7-day rain cycle where we get showers on the weekends which clear out during the week. Fortunately, I have plenty of grading, reading, and packing to do this weekend to keep myself busy. Plus I’m looking forward to see the Formula 1 guys race in Miami for the first time and watch the painful, but not entirely unexpected conclusion to the 76ers 2021-22 campaign.

And, of course, there are some quick hits and varia:
