Thursday Flotsam and Jetsam
Have a new miscellaneous thoughts and observations post up on Substack.
I'm not only a Substack writer I'm also a Substack reader and as such I get email notifications from many accounts. I confess that if I only open about half of those emails because there's only so many hours in the day. So I really understand how getting daily emails from me can be a task and I want to thank those who Subscribe to my account and not only get these emails but open them and read what I offer up.
My sincere thanks!

Meditations by Marcus Aurelius
Currently reading Meditations by Marcus Aurelius. It was famously a diary by the Roman emperor who never intended it for publication and never gave it a title. As the author of the edition I'm reading wrote it "was a self-help book in the most literal sense."
Just starting the book but to be honest it does make me curious to learn more about Epicureanism:
"Epicurus acknowledged the existence of gods, but denied they had any interest in human life. As for humans our role is simple to live as best we can, making the most of what pleasures are available to us and insulating ourselves as far as possible from pain and anxiety. In particular, we are we are to feel no anxiety about death, which consists simply in the dissolution of our component atoms."

How hypocritical do those ads asking you to get out and vote seem now? Maybe they should hand out stickers that say "I Voted! (Just not for her)." Actually would be a good product idea.

Tuesday Flotsam and Jetsam
Have a new miscellaneous thoughts and observations post up on Substack.
Swear I've been trying to avoid political posts (and baseball) but the craziness of events keep thwarting my attempts. Take yesterday's testimony under subpoena on Capitol Hill of Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheadle. Her responses were so bad that politicians on both sides of the aisle went on record calling for her to resign immediately. Surely this for all intents is the death of DEI. Anyway - sorry for an almost all politics based post.

The new saying for the DNC is that you must not believe the evidence of your own eyes. It is the party's most essential commandment. Can't wait for their two minutes of hate - or as it's known: the DNC's National Convention. Understand it will be televised,

Sunday Flotsam and Jetsam
Have a new miscellaneous thoughts and observations post up on Substack.
So the race is on to see who steps down first - Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheadle or President Joe Biden. Think most people have come to the conclusion that neither is qualified for their job. Also look for a cavalcade of people resigning their posts in the administration in hopes of getting out in time before the Biden stench becomes a permanent stain.
