Humble Thoughts

 1.  Governor Newsom: Maybe in a enclosed 'bubble'.....you might find the guy and his 'pitch' worth something.  Nationally, folks won't buy into this.  The minute he comes on for a interview...I'm drawn to his hand 'signs', and more impressed how many gestures he can make in a 60-second period.

2.  AOC:  As long as she doesn't talk about world events or economics....I can probably devote three minutes to her 'chat'.  Frankly,  I question how she got a bachelors degree.

3.  Vegas 'A's'?  Vegas is on a decline, and I'll predict by 2032....the A's baseball team will exit the city and admit this was a financial disaster in moving there.

4.  I noted this AM.....Florida’s population is 425-percent higher than it was in 1992.

5.  Hakeem Jeffries gave a 'pep-talk' yesterday: “We have to defeat them (GOP) electorally and then we have to break their spirit.”

Just seems like you'd go and focus on doing something that makes folks overall....happy.  Pretty simple task.

6.  Noted yesterday.....28 states being sued by the Feds....to clean up their voter rolls. 

For some reason....they just won't do it unless some judge is involved.

7.  Lue Elizondo gave a UAP/UFO account....where an Air Force officer allegedly vanished from beside his sleeping wife, woke up in a mysterious silver room, then suddenly reappeared back in bed.

I think a lot of AF officers have this story always ready to go, and their wives tend to believe the BS.

Fixing DC-City

 Having lived around the area (in Arlington) or 3.5 years....I have a pretty good idea of what is required:

1.  Create a 'bed-time' for all local kids under the age of 17 of 10 PM (Sunday to Thursday) and 11 PM (Fri/Sat). You get caught.....you get  dragged to a lock-up for the remainder of the night, and released only if a parent comes to get  you.

2.  Fire the current mayor/city council.

3. Install a 'manager' of the city for a 3-year term...with the President listing three candidates, and letting the House (only) selecting one of the three (most votes win).

4.  Improve Metro security, and arrange a Metro 'court'....where a judge and prosecution team exists....if you challenge safety/security....you face a fed-charge.

5.   Hire up one  single security police force....for the city, and House/Senate.

Three Humble Thoughts

 1.  World Cup Games

I believe various negative situations will develop....with five US cities....causing the fan base to get hostile (Seattle, SF, LA, Philly and NY).

I'll also say that narco-war will be noted in some of the Mexico games.

2.  Past week.....'Mayor Pete' Buttigieg has been brought up a good bit as competition for Vance in 2028.

Obviously.....some folks are not buying into Governor Newsom, and this is the  only alternate they seem to believe in.

3.  Warren Buffett comment: "Owning five homes doesn't mean anything to me because I'm happy in one home. If I've got two homes, I know I've got more problems, and I don't have more happiness."

Best quote of the week so far.

Six Observations

 1.  I've heard the term 'FREE-STUFF' about a dozen times this week.  There's no such thing....somebody...somewhere...paid for it, when you gave it a away

2.  Crazy image of former Confederate-states....mostly all lined-up to be Republican districts.  The reality?  The war and its effects...finally ended.

3.  Atlanta would be Memphis-sized today.....without Ted Turrner.  The airport?  No necessity to build to this size....without Ted Turner

4.  Just odd....right before the LA mayor election....Google has restored maps/imagery to show houses before the fire....instead of the 'dead-zone' that exists currently.

Folks asked Google about this.....no comment yet.

5.  Trump says...out of Maryland's 2020 election....there were supposed to be around 500,000 legit absentee ballots made.  Election results?  500,000 somehow turned into 1-million.

No one can explain how.  The odd factor?  Well...besides the 5 states which folks figured to be false-Biden-wins....you have to now include Maryland, and start to wonder about a dozen other states.

6.  Congress is now investigating whether private defense contractors were used to conceal/hide alleged UFO/UAP programs from Congress/President. Comment by  Rep. Eric Burlison.

If true?  There's problems for CEOs on the horizon. 

GPS And Living In The 'Stone-Age'

 Escaped the hospital yesterday....six days of treatment (Shingles)....fairly serious. Focus of the bout?  My head and a area about the size of a grapefruit above my eye....swelling up the eye big-time.  So I ended up getting three IV bags of solution per day....in a semi-luxury hospital room in Wiesbaden (it had a 48-inch TV, refrigerator, and free coffee/water/sodas).

So the the GPS topic.

I watched a podcast where some younger guy asked the question....how did we survive before GPS came along?

He kinda has a point.

At various times (Tacoma, Shreveport, Denver, and Tucson)....I kept a city paper-map in the car....under the driver's seat.   It was 'survival-driving'.  

It was not the best way, and it forced you to plan as much of a your trip ahead of time....as possible.

These map-talents existing today?  I doubt it.   From the over-50 folks.....they probably still have it....but the under-30 group?  No....they won't  be needing map talents.

My use today of GPS?  It's inter-connected with the bus-rail App. Plus the car itself has a independent program.....which you need to program on some trips.

Yeah, I've gotten use to it.

Off For 4/to/5 Days

 Doc says shingles....wants to put me in a local Wiesbaden clinic....for treatment.  So for a couple of days....no chatter.

UFO/UAP Chatter

 I sat and read through/viewed....the gov't UFO/UAP file release from Thursday.  You can do so yourself....here at...https://www.war.gov/UFO/.

I'll make three observations.

First, nothing fantastic.  If you were waiting for the big-release...this isn't it.

Second, several space items...stuff seen while on the Apollo mission  (for example).

Third, there's some video from the past 10 years....Army/Air Force  recon vehicles 'seeing' spheres.....which can't be explained.

Yeah, it's just enough to ask more questions.
