When discussing health, we often focus on the physical aspects, but we shouldn't overlook the mental ones either. For instance, did you know that depression increases the risk for many long-lasting conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, and stroke?
One day a student was taking a very difficult essay exam. At the end of the test, the prof asked all the students to put their pencils down and immediately hand in their tests. The young man kept writing furioulsy, although he was warned that if he did not stop immediately he would be disqualified.
Cringe is as cringe does. Even though the internet is full of wonderful things like cat pics, wholesome local news, and articles written by yours truly, it’s also home to the vast and spooky wilderness where you’ll find the most bizarre and cringe-worthy posts. And it’s the members of the ‘Cringetopia’ subreddit that bears the heavy burden of documenting the cringiest examples to share (and publicly mock!) with the world. These cringetopians have a duty to show us what to never ever do while at the same time providing us with some hilariously weird content.

Remember that dude with a sign who protested against practically everything that was annoying yet otherwise very ordinary? Well, there’s a sequel… a spin-off?… there’s more fun to be had there as the dudette with a sign stepped into the streets to protest the same ordinary things that we can all agree are quite annoying.
Today at 3 p.m. E.T. was the start of 2018's Amazon Prime Day. This year it is 36 hours of savings. Of course, like we mentioned in our annual reminder to use back-to-school sales to restock your genealogy supplies, do your research and make sure the deal you are getting is really a deal. For some savings you do not have to be a Prime member to get the savings. For instance, there is a code PRIMEBOOKS18 to get $5 off a $20 or more print book purchase sold and fulfilled by Amazon and if those books qualify you can get free shipping too! But for some savings you do have to be an Amazon Prime member. For instance, a 23andMe Ancestry+Health DNA test for 50% off with free shipping is currently one of the Prime Day Deals for Prime Members Only. You can start a trial Prime Membership for thirty days for free but if you don't want the membership remember to cancel it before you are charged membership fee. From electronics to genealogy books there are a lot of sales. BUT also remember that other websites often run sales themselves on their own websites while Amazon Prime Day is taking place. For instance, MyHeritage.com is running a Flash DNA sale until July 18. The MyHeritageDNA (autosomal DNA) test, regularly $99, is currently just $59 plus taxes and shipping. That is just one genealogy-related sale, there are likely more sales. The website genealogybargains.com is one place to look for lists of other genealogy sales. See you soon at Mt. Clemens Public Library! LE

I really don’t know how it could have escaped my attention that Morticia Addams, the quintessential femme fatale, was a knitter. Bless her heart, she even tried to teach Lurch: Poor dear, he …
