Q-and-A

 1.  Would I buy a E-car (like a Tesla)?

NO.  I keep seeing these garage fires....where the e-car  was recharging and fire started up.  Here in Germany....I even notice the E-bike fire coverage.....where some gal had her bike in the apartment hallway....recharging, and flames started up.  

Now, if hydrogen (H-cars) come along.....I'll check out the deal.

2.  Who gets the Nobel Peace Prize for Russia-Ukraine?

Well....it wouldn't shock me if they gave it to the Saudis or sitting in the room and talking Ukraine into accepting the initial deal.  They can't possibly give it to Rubio or Trump.

3.  How far has air travel 'fallen'?

Back in the 1980s/1990s....I considered any air travel as special.  It was a uplifting experience.

Around 2007...I had my first 5-star negative experience while.....'stuck' in NYC.  If I count all 3-star and 4-star negative experiences since then....I'm up around 15 crappy experiences.  

On almost every trip I take now....when flying....I have some time devoted to plan-B circumstances....if the flight fails.  I'm supposed to go to Hamburg in 2 weeks.....no flight planned.....just a 3-hour high-speed rail adventure. 

4.  Will  Diddy ever leave prison?

By the time they finish......I suggest that he's going to do well over 50 years of jail-time.

5.  Former First Lady Michelle Obama launching a weekly podcast?  

Yeah.  Keeping her name out there, and possibly running in 2028 (my guess).

6.  How many journalists have a background or knowledge level in economics?

My humble view?  Less than 2-percent.  So when some of them get  to  talking over business or commerce....I tend to mute the talk.
