Wednesday Flotsam and Jetsam
Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.
Donald Trump won the New Hampshire Republican primary though Nikki Haley did reportedly close the gap in a state known for independent voters. This may have been her last, best chance… They are closing the In-N-Out Burger in Oakland, CA because of the rash of thefts both inside the store and from the patron's cars in the parking lots. Meanwhile my neck of Massachusetts doesn't have any which was also true of Chick-Fil-A for a while but now the drive through line is constantly huge six days a week. Only ate there once because the line is always so long. The same would be true of an In-N-Out Burger franchise if they ever opened one around here... If the January 6th protestors were truly guilty what was the need to delete so many files by the Jan 6th Committee? What are they trying to hide? How can they expect us to believe in the protestors’ guilt when they cannot even let people see the "evidence?"... Whatever happened to the names on the Epstein files being released? We got Bill Clinton's name and then seemingly everything went radio silent. Still ZERO arrests. Doesn't pass the smell test... People on the Internet are saying Ron DeSantis could have run a better campaign if he went after Anthony Fauci and the CDC harder. I say those people never actually went to Florida. I took multiple trips there during the pandemic and can tell you the first time getting off the pane and seeing nobody wearing a mask it was great. Big middle finger to the Feds from DeSantis! The next time I went people were wearing masks and we had to wear masks at all times while at an outdoor football game. That was his chance to stand up but he caved... WWE Monday Night Raw is moving from cable to Netflix. While some people are debating if this move is more indicative of Netflix and streaming or the importance of live sports for TV - let's not forget that WWE is getting $5+ billion to make the move... Now that Terry Rozier has been traded from Charlotte to Miami for a 1st round pick plus Kyle Lowry think a good debate would be who worth more in a trade - Rozier or Kyrie Irving? Irving is more talented but Rozier is a better teammate... Surprised Claudine Gay still hasn't signed on yet as a commentator on MSNBC... Have to agree with Senator Mark Rubio that with the Biden Administration going to the Supreme Court to get a stay of their open borders policies one has to ask what's the incentive for Congress to make a deal with Democrats on both a border policy and more money for Ukraine. Seems like a naked grab to keep the money flowing and keep Republican Speaker Mike Johnson in power. Feel like I must be missing something here. It couldn't be that blatant could it?... Funny how there’s a rush to create quantum computing that would be so much faster than a normal computer but at the same time others are recommending slowing down to get the most out of life. Well which one is it?…
