Friday Follies
Bullet Points:
* Don't forget that the flu and the common cold vanished during the plague years...experience only teaches the teachable.

Raider
The first new bomber in 30 years will debut on a roll-out on Friday, December 2 at Edwards AFB/Palmdale, CA. I'm sure there will be a band and a cake to commemorate the rollout of the B-21 Raider. USAF generals will be strutting around and doing what they do best. Even though it has the form of the B-2 Spirit, they...
Beyond Walking Distance
Bleeding Russia White
Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine stands as one of the more ill-advised military moves in history - right up there with Varios leading 3 legions through the Teutoberg Forest and Napoleon's invasion of Russia. Much of this is lensed in the harsh glow of looking at the situation after the fact. Russia...
Monday Night
Bullet Points:
* Always remember the communist Let media propagandist's rules on mass shootings. If the shooter is white, it's a white supremacist Trump supporter. If the shooter isn't white, it's the gun's fault.

More for Monday
Bullet Points:
* Canadian Assisted Suicide - clearing the chronically ill off the roles of broke national healthcare. More from L. I. Whoever thinks socialism is better than capitalism doesn’t know how evil socialism can be when it runs out of other people’s money. Any that celebrates the death of babies, will celebrate your death too....
The Week Begins
Bullet Points:
* The FJB Administration is in the process of apportioning unspent Covid trillions to refilling the Strategic Petroleum Reserve at $80/barrel. These are the same donkeys to foamed at the mouth when President Trump wanted to fill it at $24/barrel.
* There really is no other argument to be had on...
Sunday PM
Captioned: The UN is once again utilizing climate policy and "climate reparations" for global income redistribution while ignoring that China emits 2/3rds more pollution than Europe and the U.S. combined.
Bullet Points:
* The Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR), John Sopko, has released his latest evalua...
Thoughts
Are We ALL Going to Die?
Most assuredly. But will the Earth suddenly burn up the way that Green New Deal advocates predict (and hope)? It looks doubtful.
A study by MIT researchers in Science Advances confirms that the planet harbors a “stabilizing feedback” mechanism that acts over hundreds of thousands of years to pull th...
Weekend Update
Yes, I'm a tree hugger. What's your point?
The US Government has been arming Ukraine because they're allies.
The US Government has been seeking to disarm Russians because they're enemies.
In totally unrelated news, the US Government wants to disarm you.

Gentle Musing
I finished up work meetings the day before Thanksgiving and it gave me some time to read and write. Everyone wore suits to the meetings but me. I was picked up by a co-worker in his Bentley. Nice new car. The restaurant offered me a tie but it clashed with my twenty-year-old khaki ...
Thanksgiving P. S.

Is there a problem with selecting leaders in their 80's?
Being a senior citizen myself, I would say - if you have somebody younger to pick, all things being equal - go for a little younger. Having said that, I think that in a fair election, Pres. Trump would win again if he runs a smart campaign.
