In philosophy, a razor is a principle or rule of thumb that allows one to eliminate ("shave off") unlikely explanations for a phenomenon, or avoid unnecessary actions. This story shares six philosophical razors to become a better thinker. Some interesting points worth checking out.

The Journey is the Story - We're all slowly becoming soccer fans, one Ryan Reynold's episode at a time. That and Ted Lasso. This story has been so fun to watch as we've been taken behind the scenes of the journey of Ryan and Rob buying the Wrexham soccer team with the goal of getting to the English Premiere league. They just got one big step closer.

DID YOU KNOW?! The term 5X5 (pronounced Five By Five) is rooted in the communications within military forces through WWII to mean:
“I understand you perfectly.”
The first number represented the Signal Strength of a radio communication, and the second number represented the signal clarity on a scale from 1-5 — 1 being the worst; 5 being the best. Therefore 5 x 5 means the signal has excellent strength and perfect clarity – the most understandable signal possible. Five by five is the predecessor to the term “Loud and Clear” It also found its way into verbal slang, meaning “everything is good” or “everybody is well/good”.
