working with real doctors and or real professionals who can keep you safe when you're doing the ketamine treatment, I don't know if that's a good idea or a bad idea. I know I wouldn't do it alone. So if you know somebody who's got like a little batch of ketamine and you think, "Ooh, I don't want to go to one of those centers, but maybe I'll try it." Don't recommend it. I don't recommend it. I thin…

If you were exercising a regular muscle, the way you would do it would be to break the muscle and then when it recovered, it would recover as a stronger muscle, right? So for muscles, breaking them down is what makes them stronger. But what about your brain? Same thing. If you stress your brain by making it work harder to think and you do harder thinking tasks, the brain physically changes to become a better brain.
What if, and I'm just playing around now, I don't think this is true. Just playing. What if the COVID infection damaged your brain? But because it's a specific kind of damage that the brain apparently can self-correct, is it possible that it made you smarter when it was done the way any muscle or any other mental process would? Would it be the only mental process that corrected itself, but it corrected it right to exactly where it was instead of a little bit better or a little bit worse? I don't know. Maybe COVID is how we evolved to the next level. So keep an eye out to see if the people who got COVID got smarter. I'm just joking. I don't think the people who got COVID got smarter, but it's funny to think that it might be true.
Well, Trump has suggested that buying Argentine beef might be a good way to lower our beef cost

s. I guess the American beef is way overpriced at the moment for a variety of reasons, supply and demand mostly, but I guess Argentina has some beef that we could get for cheaper. And Trump has said maybe yes, maybe that is a way. So I like the fact that he's open to it and it would be good for our ally and it might be good for us in the short run. I have a confession after about 30 years of bein…
