Evidently, Sia had a baby. She named the baby Somersault. No word on how the baby feels about an acrobatic toddler move as a moniker. Yes, I can make fun. I'm smug like that.

What If “Everybody” Is Wrong?…
I wished for time to just "be." Ask and ye shall receive. I got tossed in the corporate moat by mutual agreement, me sitting back and waiting for it mostly. It was a long time coming.
