The Heroes: 

 

Remember when the symbol of American luxury and achievement was wrapped around the Cadillac which sponsored the Masters beginning tot end? Now it is Mercedes in that rolr.. 

 

Hysteria produces rumors to deny rumors. One of the big ones on Wall Street revolves around the suggested irrational exhuberance over Ai investments pushing up AI stock valuations. You know the old axiom... i gotta get on board but now too many came along with me and over baought”. Personally, I think the Mag Seven stocks will come out ok by the end of this year. As the CEO of Amazon, Andy Jassy, said yesterday, “We don't invest billions of dollars biased on hunches”. Yeah, always remember these companies are not Governments. They have a sense of responsibility.  

 

The Artemis II Crew is expected to splash down around 8:PM EDT off the shores of San Diego. That should must watch TV.  

 

The Question: 

What are the three Favorite spring flowers in Northeast, Midwest USA.

We have obviously made huge improvements at Nasa since the first days in 1959. But we still have to drop the capsules into the ocean. You’d think by now there would be a way to transform the capsule into a helicopter. Or at least a hang glider. 

  

The big question in DC has to be, “Did Donald know what Malania was going to say?” Most insiders say it was a surprise. I thought she sounded pretty good.  

 

63 years ago today I was sitting on a commuter train from Framingham to Boston reading a Boston Globe headline which hit me between the eyes. The Thresher had gone down killing all aboard. They had pictures of some of the deceased officers. One was a old good friend of mine. It was one of my first tastes pf adult reality. All he ever wanted to do was go to Annapolis and be in the Navy, and he did. I have never forgotten that morning. 

 

I love watching Peyton Pritchard play basketball. 

 

The Year end GDP report seemed to say that without government spending the US Economy is sluggish. Think about the mere elimination of a month and half of some Government revenue during the shutdown and the impact it had in reducing the annual GDP. Really makes you think about how well the private sector is doing producing goods and services.  

 

If you ask me, I'd say everything is being driven by the November elections, 

 

When the economy is good, people drink. When the economy is bad, people drink. The moral? Invest in alcohol 

 

Larry Bird during 1986 was sitting in the locker room getting ready to Play the Portland Trailblazers. He told one of his fellow teammates, “I’m bored. I'm going to play tis game lefthanded.” And he did. He had a triple double, scoring 47 points with 14 rebounds and 11 assists. When asked by reporters why he did it, he said, ”Im saving my right arm for the Laker’s game tomorrow.”  Some national experts say Bird wasn't very athletic. He was.  

 

Sausage makes eggs taste better. 

 

II'll tell you why Im feeling good today. I had an intervention with the DMV this morning and it worked out very well. And state employee was quite pleasant too. See, the world is changing.  

 

The Answer: 

The big three are always Daffodils, Tulips and Hyacinths. Of course, eth crocus always brings a smile. Forsythia is a way to light up the spring hillsides. And magnolia trees I know find their way into the hearts of many.  

 

Good time this weekend to work in gardens. Have a great one, E-v-e-r-y-b-o-d-y!!
