If you were up at about 5:41 this morning… you might have seen the spectacular “Blood Moon” a combination of May's Super Moon and a total Lunar Eclipse.

- I don’t mean to name drop, but it reminded me of the time I flew Carly Simon up to Nova Scotia to see the total eclipse of the Sun. (I guess I just let the cat out of the bag… When Carly sang, “You’re So Vain”… she was talking about me!!! And you thought it was Warren Beatty!)

Speaking of Super Moons… Kim Kardashian has taken down a new level of her smartphone game featuring a Prince and Princess who leave Royal life after being treated badly by the Royal Family. Critics accused her of making $$$ off Meghan and Harry.

- Say what you want… It’s nice to see someone making money off of Harry and Meghan other than Harry and Meghan.

A $47,000-per-year Prep School in Manhattan is teaching 16 year olds a class called “Pornography Literacy” featuring nude pictures and a section on Orgasms.

- When I was 16… I made a transistor radio in Shop Class!!

Today Amazon announced that it’s reached a deal to buy MGM for $8.45 billion and could be in the market for more movie studios.

- In fact, when Jeff Bezos logged into his Amazon account this morning it said… “Based on your recent purchase history, you may also like Warner Bros, Paramount and Universal”.

Cicadas are returning to America after being underground for 17 years. Each Cicada will have a lifespan of 4-6 weeks.

- In a related story… J-Lo and Ben Affleck are back together after breaking off their engagement 17 YEARS AGO (True!) and I’m betting the lifespan of their new relationship will also be 4-6 weeks.

A survey of 2,000 Americans finds that three out of four people claim to have an appreciation for the “finer things” in life before they turn 30.

- The list of “Finer Things” includes the couch in their parents basement and having their Mom’s credit card number committed to memory.

Have a great day and I’ll see you back here Thursday!
