Snuggling in:
Well,
it’s January, the first month of the year named after
Janus the Roman god of doors. Get it? Janus represents all beginnings and was
said to have possessed the ability to see all things past and future. Maybe he should
be working for Wall Street, because we need a lot of direction there if we are
all to have a pleasant 2109. That is big concern going into this month that’s typically
cold, and warm (Well warm by winter northeast standards). It is a month of human
plodding, and in DC of nefarious plotting. And this January will be a political show for
sure,. With the Senate trying to figure out how to hold back newly emboldened
Dems in the House. It would be nice for all if Trump’s NY resolution were reigning
in the daily blabbing, but I don’t expect that. Lots of Dem 2020 Candidates
will be taking shots using his utterances against him, and he burst out back.
Yeah January starts everything. But it also when skiing improves and life here
in my town slows down. So finding relief from chaos and cacophony is far easier
in this beautifully pleasant, colder month. Yup, finding relief will be a major
objective. Pullup the down comforter and rollover.
Maybe
the most insidious danger facing humans today is the data collecting
capabilities of phones.
The
Space people just received a message from their space bug
over 4 billion miles away from Earth! Roll 4 billion miles around on your
tongue, and consider that distance is infinitesimal in the universe. You have to
wonder why humans aren’t a little humbler.
Did
you hear about the guy who tried to sell his antique
stringed instrument because he needed the lute?
The
problem isn’t just about collecting personal data for
marketing today, it’s about amassing personal data for who knows what tomorrow.
The
Question:
We hear a lot about the Celtics, and many have their
own ideas of what countries they represented. Name the territories considered the
Celtic Nations>

Bumper
sticker, Department:
“Heaven has a wall and strict immigration policies.
Hell has open
borders.”
You
just don’t hear much of anything about Slovakia these days.
That’s probably a good thing for Slovakia.
Elon
Musk
says humans have become cyborgs.
Yesterday
I saw displays for Valentine’s Day candies in several different stores. So, doesn’t
getting a feeling of romance today make sense so as not to have to find it in the
24 hours preceding St. V’s day. Romance is forever.
Why
is Wells-Fargo settling with the states instead of all
the people they screwed. Do we really think the people will get anything after
the money gets into the hands of State treasuries? Just take a peek at what happened
to the Billion’s states reaped from the Cigarette payout. That is, all the
money the states get after the lawyers took their not so tiny cut.
The
actions of humans can be quite disturbing, to say the least.
Over the past weeks in Yosemite two campgrounds and a red wood preserve were
shut down because of “human waste”. And all over in many parks people flung garbage
from their cars. Has anybody ever heard of taking garbage home when there are no
receptacles? Yeah, perhaps someday in the future we will achieve civilized living.
It’s only been 5,500 years since the Mesopotamian Civilization. But we’re gaining
on it.
The
side shows at Circuses of the future will feature their
freaks who can do math in their heads and spell words correctly.
The
Dems lose credibility when they say they want to stop the wall
to curb spending. This is the same group that wants free college for all. You
might call that, drinking up the Cool-lege Aid. Sorry about that.
From
what I have been hearing so far, one of the worst aspects
of the new Dem House will be having to listen to Jerry Nadler.
What’s
with cars crashing into buildings? I don’t know about your
area, but around here it seems to be a daily occurrence. I mean, it’s hard to miss
a building. They’re not like little pedestrians wearing dark clothes at night.
Do you think they are driving distracted? Answering a text. Or just plain drunk
or high out of their minds.
Some
societal experts say one of the real problems on the roads
are young people (And old people who don’t grow up) who drive their cars in
real life like they do in video games. Check out weaving on highways. No, that’s
not the name of video game, that’s real life in imminent danger.
The
latest from the Looniest in Glitzville has Jane Curtain leading
the march to eliminate all Republicans. Yeah great, one party countries have
always been great for the people, especially if you enjoy government
suppression. Maybe that was a joke. Jane used to be funny.
The
Answer:
The six territories widely considered Celtic Nations
are Brittany, Cornwall, Wales, Scotland, Ireland and the Isle of Man. They are all
great places to visit.
Sometimes
you
just got to get away from the overarching national debate and back to
comforting basics. A reader sent me this and I thought it was a greta way to
settle down before a potentially tumultuous January:
