- A picture of everything wrong with American drug policy.
- White House Chief of Staff bans unauthorized meetings with lobbyists. Good - but sad that this has to be spelled out to some.
- Permit issued for a next gen nuclear plant in Texas. Faster please!
- Unplugged: The rise and fall of German manufacturing. These last two stories are related if you're paying attention.
Saturday Flotsam and Jetsam
Have a new miscellaneous thoughts and observations post up on Substack.
The FAA grounding all the flights yesterday is bound to be a topic of conversation at all the college football games today. However, I remain most curious how NBC handles the sudden passing of Dan Hicks and who replaces him in the booth to call the Notre Dame - Boston College game.

Knowledge
What is the road to knowledge is one of the most asked questions in life.
No one ever said it was an easy path but it’s one you need to follow - though each in their own way.

Saddened by the passing of Dan Hicks. They say you know an offensive lineman or referee is good if you never hear his name or think of him because his performance is flawless - that was Dan Hicks. He could be calling a sporting event and you'd never think of the announcer because he was flawless. And he will be missed.

The Forgotten Man
Writer Turner Catledge laid that pattern out in detail: first there is the early 'idea' period, when either the President or some group of his associates hatches the rather rough form of what is to be attempted. Then there is the selling stage, in which the person or the group who thinks up the idea has to 'sell' it to the other. There follows in third place the 'method' stage when the modus operandi is evolved. Then there comes the final 'publicity' stage when the program is announced and the argument is submitted both to Congress and the public in behalf of its adoption.
I'd argue that the 'final' stage was normally failure.

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.
- Robots are the new peasants. Long but interesting read.
- SEC's proposed cap policy would penalize big spending teams $7 million this year. Looks like it sets a cap at about $70 million but doesn't say how those fines would be spent. Don't hold your breathe waiting for it to be adopted.
- Jonathan Turley: Trump wins major ruling in defamation lawsuits against BBC. Good!
Thursday Flotsam and Jetsam
Have a new miscellaneous thoughts and observations post up on Substack.
The results of the last election don't seem right in a "where's there's smoke there's often fire" sort of way. I'd recommend an Executive Order or law that automatically triggers a DOJ investigation and precludes results from being certified if the number of votes cast exceeds the number of registered voters. Is that too much to ask?

Veteran's Day Flotsam and Jetsam
Have a new miscellaneous thoughts and observations post up on Substack.
This description of a veteran really stuck with me, "A 'Veteran' - whether active duty, discharged, retired or reserve - is someone who, at one point at his or her life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'the United States of America', for an amount up to and including his or her life." Makes you wonder what have you ever written a blank check for in your life?

Today's offering does not include any thoughts on Jensen Huang and his infidelity. Each marriage has its own issues and who am I to judge? Besides, unfortunately I do not own any NVIDIA stock.

Almost a week since last Tuesday's blue wave wipeout in the midterm elections. If you're still complaining about it ask yourself it was over when the Germans bombed Peal Harbor? Who's with me?
