It's tough when it's Wednesday and Humpday is still looking like Friday.
What’s discouraging is to think you have a case of water in the garage andgo out to find only two bottles left. But sometimes hat is life
Do you think that that everything feels so abnormal because of the election jousting and that everything will return to perfectly normal afterthe last ballor is counted. Nah, I don't either.
Speakngof veering from normal, consider this only-in-RI story where the Repub candidate for state Treasurer is running because he needs a job. He’s missed his child support payments since February and needs an income to pay that and for his new wife’s medical bills. Yeah, that;s a good reason to elect somebody to run the finances of your state. I didn't make that up.
Instead of creating a US Space Force, we need an Anti AI Agent Cybersecutoty Force. That may be the most important military branch for our future.

It bothered me last evening when I heard thePresident say, we’ve given a lot to Ukraine and gotten nothing in return. Isn't protecting the lives of allies and innocents in their homes enough. Isn't knowing you have stymied a ruthless dictator who unprobed invade a country because he wanted it, enough. To know we are using our might and resources helping other human beings in need, I’d say that is a lot in return.
Amazon is going to hire 300,000 for the holiday seasons. Yikes. That will skew the economy statistucs for a few months..
Yesterday was opening day for the NBA. I just wrote off the Celtics.
Remember a couple of days ago I wrote I shouldn’t apologize for writing so much about sports because it has become primary in the entertainment world . Last Night NBC cancelled the Nightly News in favor of a game between the Knicls and Sixers. That in years past would have been a sacrilege.
The polls are showing declining favorability ratings for the President. But on a state by state basis he is above water in about 20 of the fifty with Wyoming giving him a 64%. See, that’s the trouble with national amalgamation. You don’t see the intrinsic statistics. You don;t see how eveybody isn't the same. It is why an electoral college is better for fairness, for the stability of a nation.
I’ve been told that eating ice cream could be healthy for me, I'm liking change\ing opinions.
Musk seems bigger than life and owning Starlink gives him a lot of power over controlling it.
Can you take a college finance course in Kalshi?
We look at 100 snap shots and pick out one and say, that’s me. I guess the other 99 are the me’s I don't want others of the world to know.
Somebody might say that unfortunately ejections are just reaction to a snapshot in time. Yeah sure. But it took way more than a day to develop a snapshot.
Why wouldn't Harry want to reconcile with his dad and bro, like the King and future King of England.

Everything is a moment in time. Bad timing can kill you, but time heals. We just sometimes don’t realize it at the time.
Well, I’m running out of time.
