Some are condemning President Trump for making that diesel deal with Putin and Russia. But the fact is the price of gas is coming down. Last week I saw $4.35 while after the deal I saw $4.15 advertised at the pump. That's what the average American will remember. The war in Ukraine should have been over by now and many have fatigue on the issue.

Tuesday Flotsam and Jetsam

Not surprised Ilhan Omar's apartment was searched by the FBI but I am curious what charges they got the warrant under. Was it the fraud involved in her going from penniless Somalian immigrant to multi-millionaire overnight, her "marrying" her bother, or some other crime? Curious people want to know.

Antifragile - It's Like He Predicted Drug Commercials
And recall that under nonlinearities, the simple statements 'harmful' or 'beneficial' break down: it is all in the dosage...
...a cost benefit situation, usually results from the treacherous condition in which the benefits are small, and visible - and the costs very large, delayed, and hidden. And of course, the potential costs are much worse than the cumulative gains."
Columbus Day Flotsam and Jetsam

Indian Summer was first termed in New England for the nice weather after the summer harvest was brought in when the Indians would often send out war parties to massacre the settlers. Now some want to place Indigenous People's Day smack dab when that might have happened. It's not far akin from some wanting to designate October 7th as Gaza Recognition Day.

New England takes on Las Vegas today at Foxboro. The Pats will be without 4 CB's from the roster. This could make for a big passing day for Kirk Cousins and the Raiders. The Patriots will also honor the 25th anniversary of the team winning the 2001 Super Bowl before the game.

Saturday Flotsam and Jetsam
Have a new miscellaneous thoughts and observations post up on Substack.
Reminder but Joe Biden and the media tried to tell everyone America was not in a depression even though all the conditions of a depression were clearly being met. Now the Democrats and the media are trying to say the economy is not doing well despite all the proof that it is. That's why the price of gas is so important - it's the only thing Democrats can point at and say "See!"

Love that Starlink is getting a step closer to offering cell service but isn't this eerily close to the script of Dr. Who's rise of the Cybermen but instead of airships there's low earth orbiting satellites? If Elon Musk starts offering free ear pods I'd really be worried.

Sergeant York
Some people may ask why we don't have heroes like this in today's military. The answer is that we do still have such men but the media today just doesn't celebrate them like they used to.

Feel bad that I don't go into more depth about current events and news while paying attention to sports. Then I see that the impending landfall of Hurricane Isaias on the Gulf Coast focuses not on the damage that may be done but how this could effect the big Alabama-Georgia game on Saturday. Not sure if this make me feel justified or ashamed to have the same questions.
