Wednesday Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

Donald Trump was fined $9,000 for violating a judge's gag rule. Find this funny since Trump is getting way more than $9,000 in publicity. Suddenly everyone wants to know what he said about this sham trial to get that fine... Daniel Kahneman once wrote, "that understanding a statement must begin with an attempt to believe it." Think this may explain why so many smart people who should have known better believed in String Theory... As an aside Greenland is 81% ice capped today which is the same percentage 20-years ago. Another proof that climate change is a hoax... Wrong!... When I was a kid Michael Jackson was a big deal pop star and crazy. Today Kanye is a big deal pop star and crazy. The more things change - the more they stay the same... Still disappointed that Donald Trump failed to acquire Greenland when he was President... Oversupplied with pharmaceuticals is a great insult... I like subtle… I must not be the only one who thinks the word Eurozone would be a good name for a competitor to Autozone for foreign car parts... Saw a great idea on the Internet that said the way to solve the student debt issue is to forgive all student debt in exchange for 4-years of military service. Love this idea but I'd add the caveats that the "student" would have to first pass the physical requirements of that branch of the military and secondarily have to complete 4-years with an honorable discharge. Student debt issue solved and military commitment at all-time high since implementation of voluntary service. But don’t we already do this with the GI Bill?... Good question… People have the habit of starting a sentence by saying, "to tell the truth" and I want to say "to tell a lie" and then say something absolutely ridiculous...
