Five Humble Thoughts On The Path Of Kamala Harris To The Presidency

 1.  You could write ten questions for an interview....hand them to Kamala, with the suggested answers, and a week later....she'd stumble her way through the Q-and-A, giving almost no clear answer.  It just begs the question....how she ever got through college.

2.  I think Joe Biden knew she was this 'lost' and this pick of her.....was revenge upon the Pelosi/Obama crowd for forcing him out of the race.

3.  She's medicated on 'something'.

4.  No, she does not own a pistol or ever fired a pistol (my humble belief).

5.  I just don't think she has any real lawyer skills....whatsoever. 

College Chatter

 

Back in 2011, I worked with a guy who had a 18-year old daughter...about to finish high school, and had been accepted to James Mason (a prestigious university in Virginia).

There was one issue....it was contingent that she come in on a Saturday and take two tests....English grammar and math assessment.

Dad drove her over.  She tested, and the scores were figured shortly after that....with a face-to-face meeting with a school official set for two hours later.

So here's the end of the story.

The girl....who had remarkable grades for the final four years of school....failed both tests.  Her dad sat there in disbelief and asked how.

College official pointed out....the last math course she took in high school....was in the 10th grade.  In both the 11th and 12th grade....she took mostly science-related courses. 

Looking at her accomplishments in English grammar.....the last plain grammar class she took....was in the 9th grade.  She had taken French literature, romance novels, and a poetry-related class....for the 10th, 11th and 12th grade.

What all of this meant?  The college official said she'd have to take a regular high-school-level math and English class in the first year at the college....with zero college credit.  Cost factor?  Around $350 for each class.  Ability to finish school in four years?  Pretty much crapped out, unless she took a summer period as a add-on.

This guy and I talked over the outcome.....total waste of time, of which we both agreed.

So I asked.....if you'd known of this problem....would you have taken her to some tutor for a weekend to  prep for the two stupid tests?  OH YEAH was the response.....guessing it would have cost $500 for a max-knowledge-dump.   

All of this makes me wonder....just how many kids are showing up and can't function at 12th-grade high school level?   A quarter of the folks?  More?

What Really Happens in 2025 If 30,000 Trump-Haters Have To Leave The US?

 I've actually wasted a few hours over 2024 thinking about this issue.

So, in my mind.....of the 30-odd thousand folks who seem to be talking about this....I think that ONLY two out of three will carry this.  I know....you've been told otherwise, but I think some people are just bluffing.

Of the twenty thousand leaving?  I think around 50-percent will try to find a new-life in the UK....the rest will split off to Panama, the Caribbean, Canada, and Dubai.

The folks in the UK?  I'll just say that about half of them discover things aren't that great....they hate the weather.....crime bothers them....and taxes are a pain.  Within a year.....half  of this crowd will give  up and return to the US.

Of the happiest group, who stay out permanently?  I think the Americans who arrive in Dubai...are the most likely to never return. 

Somewhere around 2027....most of the folks who left...will have quietly come back to the US, and admit it was a pretty harsh thing to undertake.  

The odd thing?  Most of us never even notice them leaving or coming back.

Approaching War

Is there a 'gang-war' about to start? 

If you preview newspapers around major urbanized areas of the US....there's been signs going on for two months now.

Yeah....the Tren de Aragua folks are organized and set up as a true American-style gang now.

The El Salvadorian, Haitian and normal black gangs?  They aren't prepared for this type of warfare.

The police in these cities?  Same story.

All of this leading to a major chaotic situation by the end of 2025?  Yeah, I would say that.

Sending them 'home'?  How?
 

Wrapped Up A Series

 Over the weekend, I finished up the seven-odd seasons of 'Mad Men'. Eight observations.

1.  Yeah, I admit....I'm a decade late (it started as a series in 2007 and ended in 2015).  There's various shows I just never caught (being overseas).

2.  This Dan-guy?  If you go by the show....he must have smoked two packs a day....consumed half-a-bottle of booze daily....and had sex with 300-odd women.

3.  As much as they claim it's a drama....for me...it was 25-percent humor, and a  fair  amount of 1960s fashion styles (stuff I admire).  That 1969 style was a five-star fashion.

4.  You need to push yourself through the first four episodes, and the series catches on 'fire' in early season two.

5.  Last season and ending?  It was a five-star last season, and one of the few times of a series that carried it's weight to the end.

6.  This Betsy-and-Glen dynamic?  Weirdest story-line, where the 12-year old Glen is giving Betsy (the mid-30s wife of the main character) all the signals of some hyped up and imagined romance.  

7.  The constant buy-out scenario for the company?  The theme comes up almost yearly in the episodes.

8.  You really need to watch an episode nightly to really get to the full understanding of the script.

If you have never watched 'Mad Men'...it's worth viewing.  

Q-and-A

 1.  What happens Sean 'Puff Diddy' in the end?

Presently with charges mounting (probably up to 100 years of prison)....he's trying to make a deal.  But I suspect his lawyer comes in each day after dropping another name/evidence and saying that helped to cut 4 weeks off the 100 years.  

In the end, he will end up in a suicide situation...in disbelief that giving evidence against 50 people simply got him down to 20 years of prison, at best.

2.  How does the Springfield mess end?

Well....in January (expecting Trump to win)....across the entire US....all of these vouchers will end.  This means housing help and hotel costs covered.....drops like a rock.  

I expect Trump to offer a one-way ticket home with a $500 check if you agree to board the jet to leave the US.  Most will leave.

3.  Do we have a problem in that a majority of Americans now believe they are intellectuals...because they watch CNN?

Well.....this is an odd scenario being played out.  Two hours of CNN....making a dumbass an intellectual....is NOT possible.

4.  Are tasers ineffective?

I've watched probably a hundred videos over the past decade of guys/gals getting 'juiced' by a taser.  About half react the right way...falling on the ground.  Other half....on some drug....just stand there grinning and scaring the crap out of the police officer.

It's always a 50-50 situation.

5.  Brits are discussing closing pubs early....to halt heavy-drinking in late hours.  Does that fix the problem?

A serious drinker would show up an hour earlier, and consume  booze faster....to make up for the lost hour or two.

6.  Do I regard Putin of Russia as a smart-guy?

He never had a plan-B.  At present, you can't rank Russia  in the top ten economies of the world, and I might not even rank them in the top twenty.

7.  Do I believe that sex-tapes of Kamala exist with Diddy?

Well.....yeah, but the real question is.....with who else in the tape?

8. Is it possible that aliens hang around Earth because they got nothing better to do?

You know....logically, losers like to hang out in highly urbanized areas of Europe and the US....because they got nothing better to do.  It's possible the aliens visiting....are just 'losers'.

Would It Bother You.....

 Would it bother you if an audit of 16-year-old kids in your local district revealed that a majority of them could only read at the age 11 level?

Would it bother you if a quarter of the people you bump into daily....can't pass a regular drug-test?

Would you feel bothered that VP Kamala Harris finally admits that she's never handled a pistol in her life?

Would it bother you if the Olive Garden folks finally admitted what they bring to your table....is NOT legit Italian food?

Would it pump you up if all of the cheapo-airline deals, for $7 more....offered you a free beer while waiting for the plane to load?

Are there any crime statistics existing in America that you TRUST completely?

Does it bother you that Harris talks one-quarter as much as Donald Trump, at these rallies?

If college students can't handle stress and pressure....are they in the wrong 'atmosphere'?
