      All,

      This has zero, I mean zero, to do with politics.  R.F.K. Jr. is a public figure.  Whether you like him or not, what he says and does, like with Elon Musk, Mark Cuban and anyone else that is a highly public figure; what they say and experience is quite often newsworthy.  So, when I saw the New York Times headline R.F.K. Jr. Says Doctors Found a Dead Worm in His Brain I had to go and check it out.  If you can’t get that to load, never fear, this Scientific American piece – Brain Worms like the One in RFK, Jr.’s Head Are Actually a Global Problem – may be an even more educational read.

      Who amongst us knew that having worms in your brain is actually (regrettably) not that uncommon?  Especially outside the US.  OK, so, maybe it isn’t interesting to you, but Kathy and I were both a bit…well, it was like passing a car wreck.  We both had to look.  If you find it interesting, terrific.  If not…all I will point out is that you saw the headline and you came here to see what it was all about, right?  LOL  Gotcha!  ;-)
