Graphicacy

October 3, 2018

My pal Tommy gave this TED talk a few months ago, taking us all the way from oracy, literacy, and numeracy through to graphicacy — his specialty — in six minutes.  (Note especially the graphic of 2-letter Scrabble words.)


The famed Randy Rainbow re-imagines “Camelot” (“Kavanaugh“).


Long-time readers know that my infrastructure play — Great Lakes Dredge & Dock (“silt accumulates”) — has been at best a sleepy disappointment (after an initial great run with warrants and such).  Now that GLDD is showing signs of life, what to do?  This analysis suggests holding on.


Vote, volunteer, give.

Quote of the Day

"Governments are necessarily continuing concerns. They have to keep going in good times and bad. They therefore need a wide margin of safety. If taxes and debt are made all the people can bear when times are good, there will be certain disaster when times are bad."

Calvin Coolidge
