    The magnetic “robot”, while very cool (and potentially very useful) is slightly overstated. From what I understand, it has no ability to move on its own, and is basically just a magnetic slime that can be moved using a magnetic field.

    Only 11%? That’s not much for the most common letter of the alphabet.

    A few years ago, we flew into another city and had no car. Next to the hotel was a Dunkin Donuts; I’m thinking it was drive-thru only or the dining room was closed. I walked up to the window and knocked. They were surprised but took my order.

    The art and science of simple code breaking utilizes the frequency of letters used in the encoded message. Here’s a link to an article on that topic. (Modern computer generated codes are much more complicated).

    JOKE BY RED SKELTON:

    A man is pacing back and forth in the maternity ward,waiting for his wife to give birth.

    Finally a nurse comes in and invites him to co me view his new baby.

    Looking through the glass window at a couple dozen babies,theman points and says “That one must be mine”.

    Only he’s white and the baby is Black.

    The nurse asks why he thinks it’s his baby and he says—“It must be.My wife burns everything”.

    Eleven percent? That seems incorrect. (In this sentene alone, it’s almost one hundred percent.
