Wednesday Flotsam and Jetsam
Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.
Wow - this was unexpected! Tennessee decides not to bring Mike Vrabel back as head coach setting up a big NFL bidding war for his services.... It's also a surprise but at the same time not a surprise that Richard Branson has been named in conjunction with Jeffrey Epstein. An Epstein rape victim claims Epstein has sex tapes of Branson and others. Like I said - not surprising... I had not heard this theory before... From the humble acorn. The US atomic program prior to the Manhattan Project started with just a $6,000 request from Edward Teller (it was for carbon). He says some of his peers never forgave him for asking for so little... Can I confess that I actually kinda like Circus Peanuts... Do we still not know why Secretary Austin was in the ICU? Why hasn’t it been reported? Why is he still the Defense Secretary?... So what was the end result of the Twitter files? Was anyone actually punished for censoring the truth? Or did it just make use grateful to Elon Musk for buying Twitter?... The Democrats are either stupid or they’re not even bothering to hide their corruption any more. Maybe both… Historical nugget that may only interest me: FDR loved the look Lost Horizon and in particular Shangri La. He not only used that as a codename for where some of his bombers were taking off from in the Pacific but also named his Presidential retreat Shangri La. It was later renamed Camp David by Dwight Eisenhower… After the United Airlines disaster of saying they’re not going to hire the best qualified pilots but women and pilots of color instead don’t be surprised to see their stock price go bust. Also why would any qualified pilot even apply to that company anymore?… Being anti-woke will be the business strategy of the next generation. And it will be successful…
