What exactly are mushrooms? What are they made of? They're not vegetables?

I am not thrilled with the idea of eating a fungus.  They are pretty good on pizza.  While I was in college I would occasionally eat deep-fried mushrooms, but it has been at least 35 years since I last did that.  Why eat deep-fried mushrooms when you could eat french fries or onion rings?

The bulk of the information is in the first half of the video.

What Are You Doing With Your Life? The Tail End

This video seems particularly relevant to my life, and prophetic.  It is more of a casual observation, but the shoe fits.

Coroner identifies man found deceased under Anderson bridge | News | heraldbulletin.com

I worked with Eric at two different companies in Salt Lake City. We were friends and sometimes ate lunch together. He once did me a favor by getting something for me at Sam's Club when I didn't have a membership. However, over a decade ago it seemed like he was starting to have mental health problems. It is surprising that he passed away in Indiana. I wouldn't have recognized him from the picture. He was normally clean-shaven and I remember him from when he was much younger and doing well.

At this point, it would be hard to count the number of people that I have known who have passed away.

Playing The Playstation 5 On A Sony CRT TV

Get a load of this TV.

I had a couple of 33 inch regular TV's that I got for free and they weighed 156 pounds. Two of us had extreme trouble lifting one of these. I decided that they weren't worth the trouble and gave them away.
