Friday Cocktail: Good sentences, short workweeks and Joni Mitchell going strong

Sip: on an Obituary – a martini with dangerous levels of absinthe

Weekend browsing:

• The four-day week really seems to work

• Romania has a new, non-human government adviser

• The beauty of a good sentence

• Daily Diaries of Note

Listen: to the great Joni Mitchell singing Summertime as she receives the Gershwin Prize for Popular Song

“One of these mornings you're gonna rise up singing

Yes you'll spread your wings and you'll take to the sky…”

Have a great weekend.
