Saturday Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

If you read the Washington Post to get your information it’s like watching MSNBC to get news without bias. They have taken fake news to whole new levels. If you still consume either one don't expect anyone to treat you as a serious person... The movie The Bourne Identity came out 22-years ago. Have seen the movie multiple times but just learned that the Chris Cooper character was based on real-life Oliver North… Remember…Can't help but wonder if the convenience of buying an affordable book from Amazon and having it delivered to your home has helped with the decline of the public library in this country. Why go out of your way to see if the local library has the book you’re looking for and then go there when they book you want is just a click or two away?... Great Ted Williams story… Among the G7 nations the US only has free trade agreements with Canada, Japan, and South Korea. This in large part is why not many seem to care about the G7. We’ve already had wars in Korea and bombed Japan. Think interest would rise in the G7 if we went to war with Canada. Blame Canada!… The Cars album Candy-O came out 45-years ago. Think most teenage boys became big fans and bought the album after they started having cover art from Alberto Vargas… As an aside - I’ve read many of Robert Ludlum’s books and still believe that the book The Road to Gandolfo would make a great movie - although as a comedy… Bill Belichick has a lot in common with Donald Trump. Just saying… One final note: they didn’t want to make another James Bond knockoff but they also made Jason Bourne’s initials JB to match Bond’s…
