Observations

 1.  The more you look at this insurrection chatter....the more it resembles 5th grader kids throwing eggs onto 6th grader kids. 

2.  This 22-million Jeep ad for the Super Bowl with Bruce Springsteen?  Well....now we find out that he's got DWI charges coming up and he seems more like a washed-up 1980s singer with a serious drinking problem.  Where was the review of the guy for hiring him for the ad?  Unknown.

3.  I read a piece today that suggested if the $15 minimum wage business happens....child care costs across the US....will surge around 20-percent in a matter of days.

4.  Ever heard of Rivian?  They are the Tesla-like company that Amazon is kinda sponsoring, and they are headed toward a September IPO deal (their stock will be opened up).  What they tend to make (at least they suggest that)?  SUVs, delivery vehicles, hearty-looking trucks.  

5.  There's speculation going on....that the CCP folks (China) might be fully engaged in influence-peddling on US college campuses.  Some folks think this isn't a big deal.  Some folks think it's the end of US as we know it.  I'd just look at this and note that all the Russian KGB people who had easy pickings in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s in the same college environment....simply got replaced.
