[throws chair]

I believe you’ve said before that you’re in GA. The GA legislature have changed election rules so that no matter who votes and how, Trump is going to carry GA. The legislature gave themselves the power to discard any ballots that they believe are compromised, no matter how weak the claim. They will simply throw out…

For far too many people in the world, exercising and eating healthily are very difficult to do while working at low wage jobs most of their waking hours.

I think the rally the next day demonstrated that a big part of Biden’s problem at the debate was the timed format with hard stops. I expect that he was watching a timer countdown during several of his poorer segments, and started to panic over successfully completing what he planned to say.

There is also Carl Bernstein reporting now that people close to Biden have seen dozens of these “bad night” situations over the past two years. Exaggerated or not, that story is going to hurt.

I suspect that some of the greater age differences are forced on him in order to get a project greenlit, or he accepts the role as is in order to get a different project greenlit. Draft Day seemed like the sort of film he did in order to get something that he wanted to do. And though I’ve barely seen half an episode…

Even better than increasing fines would be to change tax laws to not allow fines to be deductible as a business expense, so that it goes directly to reducing bottom line profits. We don’t get to deduct fines from income. Businesses shouldn’t get to either. 

Having the right cat around will do that to you. I adopted a cat post-college when I was still living in my mom’s home. She had great doubts about it since she had little use for cats, but after I moved out, when I told her I was coming to visit she would ask if I was bringing the cat (he was more dog-like than…

enticingly dubbed “John Wick meets Looper

She also made something out of a supporting role in The Peanut Butter Falcon.

I was thinking about Draft Day, though. Not only is Jennifer Garner pretty young, her character is barely there. Ellen Burstyn doesn’t get much depth either.

I enjoyed Nobody well enough, even though the conclusion got pretty goofy. Classic third acts problems. But is anyone really hungry for a second helping?

So much of The Andromeda Strain was about the secret government program that had been set up to deal with a novel pathogen, and the fact that the motivation behind the program was weapon development. That was what had people recalling it. The actual number of fatalities weren’t as affecting as the way in which they…

The world has always been unpredictable, and tech always advances, but the rate of change has made it much more difficult to make the best return by going long. A global business place lets competitors pop up instantly, out of the reach of IP restrictions, and to start eating your lunch as soon as it’s on the table.…

I’ve long thought that both Honda and Toyota are missing an opportunity to tap the small CUV market that the Jimny serves. They could take the C-HR or HRV, square up the body into a 2-door with a more butch design, and sell plenty of them to young city dwellers that dream of Jeeps. Offer an assortment of add-ons like…

But a strictly ‘off-road’ vehicle couldn’t be titled and licensed for road use.

The world has become too unpredictable for investors to pursue long term returns. Administrations change, technology advances, and today’s business model is tomorrow’s case study in B-school.

Driving that denominator to zero pushes the result to infinity

Veeps don’t generally get much of a profile, and she’s only a fair politician to begin with. She was given some impossible tasks, like stemming the flow of refugees from Central America, so that didn’t help her out any. Despite some early claims, I don’t believe that Biden ever intended to be a one-term president,…
