Observations

 1. It's just odd....usually after a Presidential Town Hall meeting.....they put the whole thing up on YouTube...ALL of it.  Today....18 hours later....nothing.  You get a minute here...five minutes there.....all cut to some small portion.  

Just odd.  It's CNN's work, and you'd think they'd want people to have a chance to view it.

2.  VP Harris made a comment about a voting rights bill going around in the Senate, and voiced the comment that she'd talked to folks from BOTH parties.  Some reporter stood up and asked what Republican she talked to.  She didn't answer the question.  Maybe she chatted with them....maybe not.

3.  So there's this ballot initiative floating around the DC city council which says that it'd be OK to create African American 'autonomous zones' in DC.  What does this really mean?  Well....in that 'zone'....you'd have your own black mayor and black city council folks.

So does it sound like some South African tribal 'zone'?  When you sit and think about it.....yeah....it does sound that way.

What's odd about this idea?  When I lived there (2010 to 2013)....the past five or six mayors had all been black, and 90-percent of the city council members since the 2000 era....were black.  So if you asked me....maybe they should just appoint DC already (entirely) a tribal or autonomous zone?  

Doing this in New Orleans, Memphis, Chicago, Detroit, Birmingham.....just making them tribal or autonomous zones?  

Don't worry....I doubt if this would pass.

4.  I noticed some grocery chain CEO stood up today and said that prices will surge in October 10 to 14 percent.  

5.  Just odd how these state border re-alignment groups keep multiplying now.  About every six months.....the pro-change-the-border groups double in size.  I'm waiting for some neighborhood group in NY City to want a status change and be included into Alabama.
