Paper Websites, Lovely Russians, and Crazy Eyes
The Pryor Week #1
Hey peeps! This is the first iteration of a series I publish on my Substack, Pryor Thoughts. I’ve got a bunch of them now so figured I’d start sharing them over here on Medium, too.
Why?
Because I could really use the extra $0.53 it’ll earn me. Wooooo!
Anyway, if you like it, there’s more on this page.
This Week’s Pryor Learnings
#1. From Russia With Love:
I learned my Russian friend thought the now-famous lyrics of Kelis were actually: “My milkshake brings all the boys to the garden” and I couldn’t stop myself from a good hearty maple-syrup-soaked laugh in a Canadian accent.
#2. Jeff Bezos:
He’s bringing a new angle to an old profession. Land baroning is back, baby. But this time with no occupants, productive use of land, or pesky federal taxes to stop him.
My favorite quote from the article:
“The billionaire purchased the property with plans to convert the two adjacent structures into one single family home so that the Bezos family could use it during their visits to the city.”
