Thursday Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

Elizabeth Warren seems to be the type of person who can't help but touch a hot stove. First a while back she picks a Twitter fight with Donald Trump and now with Elon Musk. The getting burned in both cases was not metaphorical. Her staff should delete her Twitter account for her own good... Do you owe outstanding student loan debt? Did you vote for Biden/Harris? You may NOT be entitled to compensation. Call 1-800-SUCKERS today!... Fair's fair - shouldn't we get to see the most damning texts and emails from the past couple of years from Liz Cheney as well? Thinking those would make more interesting reading... A silver lining thought to help you through this pandemic madness - things mostly end badly (and often grisly) for cult leaders. Perhaps this cult will meet the same outcome... Quantum mechanics is now over 100-years old and today it is utilized by physicists, engineers, chemists and biologists yet to his dying day Albert Einstein, the smartest man of his generation, had trouble accepting quantum mechanics because of its "strangeness." Makes you wonder what "strange" things from today will be the bedrock of science 100-years hence... Box of Light would be a good name for a Christian pop band... Never cease to be amazed by our ability to see galaxies 40 million light years away. The very definition of amazing... Worth repeating - if the Big Pharma liability immunity was limited to adults over 18-years old - does anyone think the vaccination of children would ever even be discussed? Anyone disagree?... Does America still have a Surgeon General? When is the last time you can recall seeing him? Shouldn't the Surgeon General have been front and center in a pandemic?... Remember just 15 days to flatten the curve... If the Colts beat the Patriots on Saturday night - I'm going to blame the loss on global climate change. That seems to be the catch-all excuse for any failures these days... Just my opinion but the 1951 version of A Christmas Carol with Alastair Sim is the best ever made. The second best is the 1999 version starring Patrick Stewart... Dear Santa - I don't ask for much and I don't ask often but all I want for Christmas this year is to have the ESPN documentary on the "noose" "found" in Bubba Wallace's stall at Talladega to be narrated by Jussie Smollet. Please! Please! Please!... Needs to be said but Elizabeth Warren was a very unpopular national candidate when she ran for President and now she's picking fights with both the leading electric car manufacturer and with crypto currency. It's like she's purposefully trying to ruin her credibility on the Left. Just waiting for her to tie the Red Sox 2004 World Series trophy to the bumper of her car and drag it around Faneuil Hall... Language tidbit: Catholic bishops are in charge of a "diocese" which is ironic since the word comes from the Roman emperor Diocletian who was an arch-persecutor of Christians... Nobody asked me but I think Adam Carolla should be the choice to replace Chris Wallace on Fox News Sunday. Think that would be a ratings winner since even people like me who don’t watch cable news would tune in...
