Flotsam and Jetsam
Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.
I'm 100% against the idea of "defund the police" but it's getting to the point where "defund the FBI" isn't exactly a completely unattractive idea... What journalists can learn from The Night Stalker. One of my favorite movies as a kid... So the government would basically like to prohibit anyone from being un-vaccinated. This is the same government that tried to prohibit people from drinking alcohol a hundred years ago and from smoking pot the past 60-years. How did that work out?... It was Joyce's Ulysses and Melville's Moby Dick for me... Learned the New Orleans Saints' stadium will now be called Caesar's Superdome. I was bothered by that because to me it's always been just the Superdome. It bothered me until I remembered that until last week it was technically the Mercedes-Benz Superdome...

Flotsam and Jetsam
"What can be added to the happiness of the man who is in health, who is out of debt, and has a clear conscience." - Adam Smith... Heh Heh... I'm really hoping that the "woke-police" come for Yale - trying to insist the school change it's name. But in the back of my head I keep thinking this could be the most elaborate MIT prank ever... "When you arise in the morning think of what a privilege it is to be alive, to think, to enjoy, to love." - Marcus Aurelius... Really don't see how The Washington Post thought that this was a good rebuttal to President Trump's claim... Almost Soft would be a good name for a line of discount toilet paper... "You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete." R. Buckminster Fuller... No doubt in my mind that if were left to an Internet poll then Yale University would be re-named as Discount Harvard. All those rich Crimson alums would make that happen...
