Are most modern problems caused by selfishness or a lack of it? Ayn Rand, a Russian American philosopher and writer, would say it’s the latter — that selfishness is not a vice but a virtue — and that capitalism is the ideal system. Everyone from Donald Trump, to Alan Greenspan, to Brad Pitt have sung Ayn Rand’s praises. The Library of Congress named her novel Atlas Shrugged the second most influential book in the U.S. after the Bible. Ayn Rand wasn’t politically correct, she was belligerent and liked going against the grain. And although she lived by the doctrine of her own greatness, she was driven by the fear that she would never be good enough.
In this episode, historian Jennifer Burns will guide us through Rand’s evolution and how she eventually reshaped American politics, becoming what Burns calls “a gateway drug to life on the right.”
Sunny but the temperature will be dropping today 🌞
That wind won’t help much. And then snow tomorrow 🌨 though not that much is predicted. But it might change my plans for next week – I’m not sure if I will go out to Central NY with possible snow lingering through Sunday and I’m a bit concerned that the roads will be icy.
After such a mild week, ❄ next week looks to pretty cold. I have that week off but I’m undecided where I will go but I do want to get out of town for a few days. Maybe just the Adirondacks. Not totally sure. I could always stay home part of the week. I do have projects that I could work on at home although I have all winter to do them and come January I doubt I’ll be traveling much.
I think I will get propane tonight 🏮 and maybe some more under shirts but I think I will have enough clothes for camping if I do head out of town so I can probably skip the laundromat this week. I can reevaluate tomorrow and if I decide to leave Sunday pack on Saturday. I just want to see the final forecast before deciding.

Clear and 49 degrees in Delmar, NY. 🌄 At some point the sun will rise. But it’s in no rush thus time of year. A bit breezy, ️16 mph breeze from the west-northwest 🌬 .
The wind makes it feel cooler than it is – was an extremely mild night for December. It’s not expected to last. Temperatures will drop below freezing at around 1 am ☃️ with snow and ice 🌨 come Saturday.
I am up early this morning like most, and I walked down to the early express bus 🚍. The early express is running late again. But I should still have time to walk laps on the Plaza on this fairly mild morning.
Last work day for me before Christmas 🤶🏻 as I took off next week as the director had next week off. We are closing the office today 🏢 today at two but I’ll probably stay until 4 pm so I can just take the early express home. 🚍 I’d rather take the express home and I’m in no rush to get home. I have internet at work and my laptop 🖥 is there.
I saw they changed my phone plan 📱 so it’s now unlimited data, well 60 GB technically but that’s a lot of data to use on a phone. But they cut the hot spot to 5 GB but that’s fine as half the time I don’t have my laptop at home 🖥 and if remote work starts up, with the new plans they’re offering it’s just $10 extra for the 15 gb plan. That really is plenty especially if I reserve the hot spot for work and use the phone for all video.
