Odds & Ends More Odds
 
Out With Robots  
   A Japanese hotel chain terminated its front-desk staff, cleaners, porters and in-room assistants. All robots, they were expensive to service and unable to answer many customer questions. 
  
   One in-room assistant interpreted snoring as a command and woke up a guest. 
  
Medicare for All?  
   Before biting on universal healthcare, consider the man in England with a toothache. He requested a dental visit in 2017. Some 18 months later, the desperate 62-year-old took needle-nose pliers and pulled his own tooth.

It's a Fraud?
   A transgender (born male) now calls such procedures, "A fraud perpetrated by psychiatry, the likes of something the United States and (the world) hasn't experienced since the lobotomy era." 

Choking a Cat
   A trail runner in Colorado survived a mountain lion attack by wrestling the cat to the ground and choking it to death. 

Unthinkable
   A Down syndrome man said he doesn't want to make abortion illegal. "I want to make it unthinkable," he told Congress in 2017.

Hate Itself is the Root 
   Jews murdered in Pittsburgh. Muslims murdered in New Zealand. Christians aren't the only people stalked by haters.

Finally... 
   Is some social media actually "anti-social?"
