Doesn't it depend on how confident you want to be that your sample response is representing the population? I. E. Alpha = 0.95 vs. Alpha =0.98?

Car camping! That way we can really explore the vastness that is those two parts, and see the breadth of it. Even with that, we won't see 1/100th of what's available out there. I am so excited.

Running a half marathon on an island this weekend, and boarding a flight eight hours after that. Going to Arches and Canyonlands and next week. Going to leave my phone off and enjoy some quality time with my partner, and think about life and what all this is about.

I buy it. Running forces you to, at a certain point, care about your physical, mental, and emotional well-being. I don't think that's necessarily going to happen at the 5k or 10k distance, but long distance running certainly can. If you are missing any one of those three categories, the run will not happen or will not go well. Nobody is forcing a person to run except for themselves, it's typically not a team activity, and distance training is largely a solitary activity. It forces you to be comfortable with yourself, or else how can you possibly expect to run 10, 12, 18 miles at a time?

Runners are a tribe, WanderingEng starts to touch on this. There's some friendly competition at the amateur level, but even just seeing another runner while I'm running is exciting. Yesterday, I ran 16 miles, and saw 8 different runners I personally know over the course of the run. It was amazing, and mentally it was amazing knowing "I can do this!". So, yeah, I buy this article.

If I do end up there, I will tell him you sent me!

I basically don't live anywhere for the next three months. Planned a very last minute vacation to Arches National Park in two weeks...with a weekend summit of Mount St. Helen's permitted for the following weekend. And maybe work travel to Knoxville in between.

This is fine. I'm living what, to me, is an interesting life with a job that pays enough to sustain it. What more could I ask for.

What recourse do you see in the event of a Mueller firing?

And home.

And hotel room.

But muh "disruption"

You know me well.

elizabeth here is the race report.

Well, I also could have said something along the lines of wanting a few days worth of space to think instead of just breaking up.
