Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

Pretty sure Mark Zuckerberg's endgame is to run for President. That's what the flag waving, wake boarding 4th of July video was all about. Think of it as a trial balloon... Growing up this is what a manly man looked like. I have no idea what kids consider manly these days but pretty sure Charles Bronson could kick their ass... 75-years ago the pinnacle of science was the splitting of the atom. Perhaps 75-years hence the pinnacle will be the splitting of the electron... My fear is when Mark Zuckerberg learns via an aborted run for President that he's perhaps the least liked person in the USA that he becomes a real-life Bond villain. The odds are so much greater that he becomes a Bond villain than the President... From now on when I want anyone to shut up I'm going to say, "Thank you. THANK YOU!" like the chair during the Wimbledon's men's final on Sunday. Conversation you're not interested in having, "Thank you. THANK YOU!" Girlfriend complaining about your driving, "Thank you. THANK YOU!" It actually works great...
