51:34 Thoughts on Egg Nog

I mentioned that I wanted to avoid bumping my noggin.
Groucho Marx was one of the classic comedians of all time.
I briefly discussed how I hope the newly resurrected Hytale will spur Mojang to making more substantial updates… which have been few and far between after it was bought by Microsoft.
I mentioned that one of my girls is considering going to college in Georgia. I have spent some time in the south, including time in Atlanta. I kinda like the south, but I much prefer the Pacific Northwest.
While pondering food options in Minecraft, I mentioned Farmer’s Delight and Delightful.
I talked a bit about my dislike of the flavor of Nutmeg. This led to thoughts on Cilantro and Caraway Seeds… which I thought are related, but in looking them up to write this… I learned that they are completely separate… which makes sense as I hate one and love the other.
While talking about how produce in the supermarkets used to be… I also mentioned the Soviet Union.

Ever since I watched The Sting as a child, I have loved Ragtime music. However, I am not a musician, composer, or even a particularly knowledgeable fan of music. I enjoy what I enjoy and that includes many different genres of music. However, Ragtime is the soundtrack for the era I am simulating and this may the first time that modern listeners may be exposed to it. So I am including some general Ragtime links and whatever information I can find on the particular tracks I used in this episode.
