Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

"Never play by the rules. Never pay in cash. And never tell the truth." Ross Johnson former CEO of RJR Nabisco on what he called the three rules of Wall Street. After the past few days it seems clear those three rules apply to Capital Hill too... Good on hockey equipment manufacturer Bauer for helping by making face shields for health workers fighting the Wuhan virus... "When we are no longer able to change a situation , we are challenged to change ourselves." - Victor Frankl... Cool looking building in Idaho actually a nuclear reactor. If it were a home I'd love to live in it... In March of 1917 the US took possession of the US Virgin Islands (formerly the Danish West Indies) after paying Demark $25 million. Talk about great deals! That would be worth about $505 million is today's dollars... What a great movie quote for what we're all going through...
