To get ice cream or not 🍦

|

I rode my bike down to the Norman’s Kill West Preserve. I almost didn’t want to lest the pressure to get an ice cream at Jim’s Tastefreeze.

Now I get ice cream is not arsenic or $500 but it’s still an expense and calories, loaded with unhealthy ingredients that slowly but surely will eat away at my body. I’m a lot thinner now and make good money.

The question becomes how long to delay gratification. Occasional treats aren’t the end of the world. But good things come to those who wait. But how long should you wait and how much should you give up for a better tomorrow? I know it’s only ice cream and it’s been three weeks since I last had some at the Gas Up. I don’t know.

Supreme Court just made it harder for federal agencies to regulate in sweeping ruling : NPR

The U.S. Supreme court on Friday undid decades of regulatory law, making it far more difficult for federal agencies to issue rules and regulations that carry out broad mandates enacted by Congress. Along ideological lines, the court reversed a 40-year-old precedent that has governed what agencies can and cannot do in interpreting federal statutes.

The decision overturned Chevron v. The Natural Resources Defense Council, a 1984 decision that was not particularly controversial when it was announced 40 years ago. Indeed, the vote was unanimous in declaring that when a statute is ambiguous, courts should defer to reasonable agency interpretations of what it means.
