Five Things

 1.  I spend at least 30 minutes a week reviewing news pieces from Florida's condo market, and owner-spiral.  It's not a pleasant view.

I'll predict by the end of 2025....there's around 150,000 Florida residents  who've given up and exited the state.  Some (probably in the 10,000 range)....will be homeless or ending up in the house of their kids or relatives.  

2.  Somehow, in the hour or two prior to the Atlanta school shooting....kid's mom is talking to the school counselor....worried over a potential 'threat' of some type.  From this encounter?  Nothing happens.

If you are ever in the position of the mom in this case....consider the school counselor worthless, and take your own actions.

3.  The selling point of bringing the Haitians (20,000) to central Ohio?  Well....the region is affected by a drugged-up culture....meaning if you demand clear-headed people and establish drug-tests....the locals can't pass the test or be employed.

So this brief window has opened.  As soon as the Haitians discover drugs....they will be unable to pass the drug tests or be employed.  Clock is ticking....figure a year at best before reality occurs.

4.  I'm watching the series 'Mad Men' for the first time....ending the first season.  Basically, a 2-star soap opera, with everyone smoking, drinking their whiskey straight, and a fair amount of sex between adults in the early 1960s.  This is one of the weirdest shows I've seen since 'Lost'.

5. I've watched five or six videos of Miami Dolphins' Tyreek Hill, and his arrest deal.  

Once you explain his speeding (50 mph above the limit)....then his behavior as the police had pulled him over....I'm not buying into the innocent story he hands out.

If you are caught speeding (50-over)....cops should confiscate your car for six months, and mandate some heavy insurance reaction. 

Having Watched The Debate

 1.  Instead of a Harris versus Trump debate....I'd say it was more of a ABC versus Trump debate.

2.  Funny....muted-mic rule disappeared.

3. No notes rule?  Harris sat there with a notebook.

4.  Instead of talking about a winner or loser of the debate...it's more of  a discussion....'did you see what ABC's moderators did'.
