Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.

Catherine's library find is a board book that's ostensibly for babies... about electrical engineering. Better yet, it has a Christmas theme! (And it's part of a whole series of science-themed board books). We'll stick with colors, shapes, and ABCs, thanks.
​
Terri's random recommendation this week is a lighter topic than electrical engineering: Funny videos on Instagram. Check out Farbsy for goofy takes on workplace emails, customer support for pets, and more.

In the archives, we checked out an episode from 2019 on the good news/bad news of being needed as a parent. Mentioned: Googling Is for Old People. That's a Problem for Google, at the Wall Street Journal; the penny problem on The West Wing and at the New York Times.

Next week's lineup: * Lost S2 E1, "Man of Science, Man of Faith," on Tuesday, December 24 * Shrinking S2 E8, "Last Drink," on Wednesday, December 25 * Weekly roundup on Thursday, December 26

Until then (and anytime you're in need), the archives are available.
