Eight Humble Thoughts

 1.  This 'dragging' of Hunter Biden into a House 'interrogation' episode?  

Even if you got the police involved in 'dragging' the guy in....I would assume he'd be so stressed out...that he'd have to do a line or two of cocaine....to get fixed-up enough for first hour, and ask for a 3-minute pause in the second hour, for another line of cocaine.

In summary, nothing that he'd say....would make sense...because of the cocaine.

2.  If you lined-up 100 American adults (with a college education).....asking them to name any city in the Ukraine....I believe fewer than five would name one single city.

If you had a world map....I suspect fewer than fewer than ten could find the Ukraine with 'ease'.

3.   I came to realize this week that the last Republican mayor of Chicago....was over 90 years ago.  Pretty much all the damage that was done by that guy and the 1920s....is over.  What you have now.....is fresh new damage.

4.  I strongly suspect that no one spends an hour a day talking to President Biden over his poll numbers or the Hunter mess.  As long as he reads the WaPo and NY Times......he is under some form of control.  

5.  As much as Biden is standing there and forgiving college debt....don't worry.  There's fresh new college debt being made every month....to replace this crowd.

6.  In general, to build a E-car charging station in Germany (does not include the concrete, pavement, etc....it's 7,500 Euro ($8,079) per charger and electrical hook-up.

7.  I think some folks around DC are contemplating a scenario now where President Harris would appear after a impeachment situation.  Whether it bothers them or not....one could only speculate.

8.  At some point (shortly), all this trans-business will come to a halt, as lawsuits start up, and HR folks for clinics and hospitals start to freak out.  Overnight....you won't be able to get a trans situation brewing, and only by going to some third-world clinic.....will the practice continue.  

Reality of Sports

 “I wanted to play lacrosse, but you had to choose between lacrosse and football. You couldn’t play both in the same season.”

-- President Biden (yesterday)

Normally, I don't follow that many comments of what he says.  But I paused over this.

Traditionally in college football....it's strictly a fall sport.  You might have some training camp episodes in July, but it's mostly over by December, unless your team gets into NCAA bowl games.

For lacrosse?  Well....it's an odd sport.  Training might start in January, and actual games (at least in NCAA action) start in February, with the season over by Memorial Day weekend.

The League business?  It's different from NCAA lacrosse.....their season would start end of May (with training camp for most of May), and the season would end around the last week of August.  Playoffs?  Well....it's the whole month of September.  

Joe being confused?  If you were in college-level play....he's BSing you.  You could play both sports although it makes little sense if you were better at baseball than lacrosse.  If you were in amateur non-college lacrosse....Joe is telling you the complete truth, and you can't mix/match the two sports.

Do I know that much about lacrosse?  No.  In my Air Force years, I had a roommate who got into it.  At one point, he got himself convinced for about a year to participate in seven different sports.
