Two Gates: 

 

If Gaetz gets nixed, maybe Dudley Do-Right is available for AG. We need a good law and order person. 

 

Wall Street seems perplexed. When everything is high how do they justify it getting higher. Especially when the the gift of Trump fever is being replaced by Powell reluctance. Typically, they make it lower so they can make it higher later, and there is a growing stockpile of excuses now to bring it lower. Beware of a rollercoaster. Hint: Never listen to me 

 

If you get an email asking you to invest in Egyptian architecture. Don’t answer, it’s a pyramid scheme. 

 

The Question: 

What are the definitions of ethics?

As I scanned the college games for this Saturday, I only found one terribly important, Georgia and Tennessee. Though maybe I’d add BYU and Kansas. The only significance of the other myriad games scattered across TV land this weekend are to qualify for meaningless end of year Bowl Games.  

 

Here's a sign of the times for college football and possibly all college athlete system The QB of BC was benched last weekend and yesterday he quit the team and will more likely than not transfer to another college next year. There are no rules, no ethics, no sensitivity to the world around them. Is this the new America.  

 

Excuse me, but why exactly is having Thursday NFL games on Prime better for me. I guess it's great if I want watch games on a phone while I'm locked away in a mental ward somewhere. 

 

It's a good thing doctors can read my blood test results numbers better than I can. 

 

I heard this morning that the Dem Communist left is saying their party would be better off if they were a Democrat moderate. Are you ready for AOC and Apple Pie? 

 

Why would I ever want to watch Mike Tyson and Jake Paul fight. There is definitely no FOMO on that one here. 

 

Matt Gaetz resigned from Congress Wednesday after being Nominated for AG. It wasn't because he was an honorable man. It was because it was a way to stay several steps in front of the law. If he isn't in Congress, Congress can't accuse him of anything. But they can release an ethics report. That fight will be a doozy.  

 

Ethics can be tricky: Cloning yourself and pushing your clone off a cliff to its death is probably a crime, but what crime is it? Is it murder? Suicide? Or making an obscene clone fall? 

 

The Answer: 

Ethics, the discipline concerned with what is morally good and bad and morally right and wrong. The term is also applied to any system or theory of moral values or principles. (Britannica)  

(Webster): a: a set of moral principles: a theory or system of moral values; the present-day materialistic ethic;an old-fashioned work ethic 

b: The principles of conduct governing an individual or a group  

professional ethics. c: a consciousness of moral importance. 

 

Legal can be unethical.  

 

People who are inherently amoral have no clue about what an ethics fight is all about except that it gets in the way of their own ambitions. 

 

Oh, God, how did I get here.  

 

Have a great weekend, E-v-e-r-y-b-o-d-y!!
