Take my advice. I’m not using it.

Opening Stuff:

I used to be able to parallel park better by instinct than I do now by using the rear camera. Is technology diminishing our instincts; robbing us of our intuitiveness. Is this the beginning of the Robot takeover of humans? Aaaaaargh!

I like for Repub VP, the governor of New Mexico, Susana Martinez. To me, she has it all, that is, until some Hillary operative turns on of her positives into something negative.

The big battle brewing for the future could be Amazon against Alibaba. Amazon, operating in a mostly free market environment seems to be putting into place collaborative deals which should give them an advantage. But, you can never underestimate the power of a country with 1.3-4 Billion people, and a Government will to do anything for world economic power.

The Personal Injury Lawyer Club of America must think it’s having an early Christmas after hearing the announcement yesterday that the Third biggest  killer of Americans after Heart Disease and Cancer, is Medical Error. Yikes! Not only that, but the John’s Hopkins  reporters of this stat are saying they are promoting the development of a system that tracks everything and puts data into usable, accessible formats, necessarily making the task of the attacking firms easier. Whatever happened to Tort reform?

Speaking of smelling out money wherever it may be, how about those politicians now looking to get their hands on large college endowments, or coercing the colleges into spending the Government’s way. How will these often bastions of socialism react to attacks by the immovable force on their fortunes?

The top five most endowed colleges are Harvard, Yale, Texas University System, Princeton and Stanford.

That fire in Canada is horrendous. What is also interesting is that this little known town of Fort McMurray in Alberta just happens to sit upon the world’s third largest oil reserve after Saudi Arabia and Venezuela. I really feel those people, many looking at the destruction of their orderly lives for years ahead.

Spell-Check must be a peacenik, or a Trump supporter… because it doesn’t recognize NATO.

The Parking Lot will be back tomorrow.
