Baseball Chatter
I saw this today....cost factor of taking a family of four to baseball games.
Red Sox is the worst situation....$324. Phoenix is best at $126.
In a period of inflation? It makes no sense to attend a game.
Ten Things
1. Lately, if you just stand back and observe all the chaos and crazy thing going on....it does seem to be remarkably like an episode of the Twilight Zone.
Nothing makes sense. People seem to be 24-hour a day hypocrites. Logic meets illogic on a continuing basis. You could walk into a beverage shop with empty pallets where the beer should be, and the only explanation by 'Woody' is that the distribution chain is 'broke'.
2. The one negative I hang on Trump? Out of every ten people he hired....five were idiots or working to oppose him. He proved his firing skills at dumping them....but he was crappy at finding good people.
3. 'Experts' seem to come out of the woodwork daily....to the TV news folks....to intimidate us with the expertness. About half the time, we reach a level where it's a 'staged-lecture' and mute the expert's dialog.
4. Just a test, but after all this dialog and chatter about the Secret Service having lost text messages from the 6th of January of 2021....I'd like to announce a text message review of everything that the House members wrote on the 2nd of June. I would expect within twenty-four hours....all of their messages will also have disappeared.
5. Adderall induced psychosis will be declared the number one health issue in America within five years....my prediction. It'll even outpace meth usage.
People will be reporting to their doctors that they perceived Jesus walked into their living room last night, or they have these persistent thoughts of buying a cabin in Alaska for no reason, or that they are having continual behavior attractions to slutty women. Your cousin will call and announce he's getting a gender change because the dog told him to do it. Your boss will imagine that half the employees need clothing mandates because their style doesn't match his.
Doctors will react to this....prescribing MORE Adderall, and tripling up the affected crowd.
6. Within five years, it'll be common-place in several states to see men and women hauling around a holster with a pistol, or having shotgun slung over their shoulder....while grocery-shopping or filling the car with gas.
7. It's just funny....as a kid....I probably watched at least a dozen TV shows/movies each year where people sunk off into quicksand. Over the past decade? Not a single move/TV show....where 'Joe' would fall into quicksand.
8. Some chatter going on....the White House is in search of a new communications team. Interviews to occur, and offers to be made. 18 months into this period. Presently, I would forecast whoever is hired....will last through till spring of 2023, and be dumped for the next team.
9. I think if you gathered up a hundred gay/lesbian folks, and asked how consumed they are over gender evolution....more than 95-percent would say this is NOT for them.
10. One odd thing on the bill floating around in the House to ban assault weapons. If you can get a draft of it....on page 8, it bans the Ruger Mini-14. Funny though....then you page over to page 26, and it UN-bans the Ruger Mini-14. Probably sixteen people writing the draft, and the pieces.....with one guy consumed to ban the '14' and one guy wanting it to be a regular weapon.
