Tonight President Trump gives a speech to the nation. Guessing that the war in Iran and fraud in US elections will be the two big tent poles of the speech. Hard to spin either of those topics - Iran has proven to be plain evil for decades and voter fraud is just wrong - but spin you will hear from the media tonight.

- AI will lead to more jobs not fewer.
- Our schools need freedom of expression. Agree - but also feel students should have to pass a US citizenship test to get a degree. They are still citizens but they don't get that degree unless they pass the test.
Some offseason thoughts and observations that were NOT sponsored by Monster Energy drinks.
Was having these thoughts anyway and figured I may as well jot them down. Since these thoughts and observations were not sponsored (not even by my daily morning coffee) please consider Subscribing. It would be greatly appreciated.
I read a study once where the experts explained that putting ice cubes up the rectums of unconscious people has no physiological benefit and can even lead to seizures and stroke. Of course I laughed at such a silly study. And the more I thought about it – the funnier I thought it was.
After thinking about it for a while I came to the unmistakable conclusion that men were completely responsible for such a thing. In order for the study to be done in the first place people must have been putting ice cubes up the butts of unconscious people. Who would do such a thing? Men! A woman would never see an unconscious person and think – “Instead of calling an ambulance for help I think I will jam a large ice cube up the ass to see if that wakes the person up.” Say that to a guy and the chances are his response would be, “What the heck – give it a shot.”
And who would design and OK the spending for such a dumb study? Men! Do you think they told the test subjects what the study was all about? “OK we are going to knock you unconscious and then place ice cubes of different sizes up your rectum.” How would you like to be the test subject that ended up having a stroke because you needed the $50 the experiment paid?
Many a truth is said in jest.
- Mitch McConnell has become a national joke.
- Heh Heh
- I don't recall ever giving anyone permission to use images of my body.

Spain beat France 2-0 yesterday to make it to the World Cup finals on Sunday. Who they play will be determined today when England takes on Argentina at 3:00. Unless of course President Trump announces tomorrow that the winner of that game has to take on the US in the Universe Cup. That would be huge!

More stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

Enjoy!

Did not watch a second of the HR derby last night. Not because it was on Netflix but because I had no interest. Getting to the Springsteen song 57 channels and nothing on stage in my life when it comes to TV. When there's not a game on that is.

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.
- Shane Parrish and "The Best Summary of Atlas Shrugged." I'm at the point where I just re-read John Gault's speech near the end of the book.
- Don Surber: Lindsey Graham, a profile in courage. A little over the top but Lindsey Graham was a good man.
- How Ukraine built a war fighting state. Did he mean "rationalization" or was that supposed to be "nationalization?" I like "rationalization."
- The Mitch McConnell situation keeps getting weirder and weirder.

What happened with South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham is tragic. The ongoing saga on Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell has devolved into being just plain bizarre. It's hard to know what to even think about McConnell's status anymore.

The assassination attempt was two years ago. Don't forget what they tried to take from you. And don't forget all that President Trump has accomplished since then.

Watched both World Cups games yesterday which both went Extra Time and finished 2-1 with England beating Denmark and Argentina beating Switzerland in the nightcap. The Final Four is now set.

This year is how to say and spell Turkey, last year it was "Gulf of America" or "Gulf of Mexico," but the granddaddy of them all is the English Channel. For centuries the French have called it La Manche (the elbow) instead. They even made it feminine.

You hear surprisingly little about Boston being a choice for LeBron James' next home. This lack of noise gives me hope that he may have made the Celtics his surprise choice of team for next season. They do offer LeBron a great chance at another ring too.
