Very Random Thoughts - November 2019

  • Some guys and all women should not participate in Movember.
  • This clock changing from daylight to standard time is not worth it. Pick one, we'll adjust. 
  • Actually, the facts and the procedures matter for bad behavior. But mostly the facts. 
  • Would anyone listen to a politician or talking head if they didn't say outrageous and usually untruthful things?
  • How long after Trump is out of office will it take to restore confidence in the FBI, CIA, State Department, DOJ, and other agencies? 
  • Fortunately, I will not live long enough to read the historian's account of the Boomer years. I suspect it will not be kind. 
  • Same deal for the Trump years. Even less kind. 
  • There is a rumor that Trump needs reading glasses but doesn't like to be seen wearing them. This is a hoax, Trump doesn't read. 
  • Every cell phone service provider has one or more unlimited data plans. None of those plans is actually unlimited. All throttle down your data significantly after a threshold that is far less than infinity. So, unlimited actually means limited. 
  • Right or wrong, truth or lie, no longer matters. The only test is someone a member of your tribe (party).
  • The word is similar, not simUlar.   
  • The word unicorn is vastly overused these days and has multiple meanings.
  • When watching a politician being interviewed on TV, I often yell, "just answer the damn question." 
  • I think we can all agree that there are way too many members on Congressional committees.  
  • The new slur by millenniums "OK Boomer" pisses me off. No, not because it's a putdown but because my generation didn't do better. 
  • Reinforced tonight. Dolly Parton is a national treasure.
  • My hyperactive upstairs neighbor was especially active today. It's hard to believe a kid can gallop and jump for that long. 
  • Writing is fairly easy, it's the rewriting and editing that is a bitch.
