The Friday Link for 11/3/23

Howdy all! I hope you had a good week.

Three completely unrelated clips for you this Friday! 

'Saturday Night Live' had their first great skit of the season. Comedian Nate Bargatze plays George Washington and he tries to explain his vision for America. Barbatze's delivery is a little rough, but frankly, the fact he didn't break up laughing is amazing. 


Next is a great musical number from the movie 'Chicago.'  Renée Zellweger and Richard Gere got way too much grief when they were announced as Roxie Hart and Billy Flynn in this (checks watch) 21 year old movie! They both absolutely crushed it. 

This clip is described as the one that won the move the Oscar. I have a hard time disagreeing with that sentiment. 


Finally tonight, what if Earth had rings? At one point the planet probably did have some rings, but if we were to have them today, what would that mean.  It never crossed my mind but since the Earth is at a tilt, the rings would occasionally partially block the sun.  At those times, the planet under the shadow would be FAR colder than it is today. 

Joe Scott has the breakdown, some great visuals, and a longer discussion on the impacts to man that would've happened under a planet with rings. 


Are you not entertained?

Have a great weekend.  Make sure to get that flu and COVID shot when you can! 

Be safe, please.
