Flotsam and Jetsam

 Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

When California eventually reopens many people will have trouble getting to work now that Uber and Lyft have been forced to cease operations in the State. It will be interesting to see what effects this will have. Will more people buy cars of their own? Will traffic get worse? Will people just move out of state in frustration?... "Rupcy" is such an under utilized suffix. Everyone understands "bankruptcy" which is the state of being completely lacking in money. I think the words "Whiskeyruptcy" and "brownieruptcy" among others should get more play in everyday vernacular... "I have no idea what the Democratic Party stands for because they won't tell you." - Herschel Walker. He has a point... The word "hemorrhagic" is perhaps the nastiest adjective of all. Precede any word with it and that word automatically becomes nasty. For example hemorrhagic pancakes, hemorrhagic nipples, etc... "Character - the willingness to accept responsibility for one's own life - is the source from which self-respect springs." - Joan Didion...
