Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

Waiting for Nancy Pelosi to announce that the Democrats have a plan to fight the corona virus but that Congress will have to pass it first before she reveals whats in the plan... Virgin Galactic has received nearly 8,000 online reservations "of interest" showing that lots of people really want to go to space. However, how many of those will actually end up paying the reported cost of $250,000 for a seat in the six-passenger spacecraft? If just half of those who did the online reservation fully committed that's $1 billion in potential revenue...  Corona should just come out with a Hard Seltzer Hand Sanitizer to capitalize on the news... Interesting - a wearable privacy bracelet that "jams" smart speakers like Alexa and others from recording your conversations. Cool idea but to be honest the bracelet is ugly as fuck (but that could be worked on)... Anything worth doing does require years... "I am indeed rich, since my income is superior to my expenses, and my expense is equal to my wishes." - Edward Gibbon... Who knew? The iconic Patsy Cline song Crazy was written by Willie Nelson. Just found out that nugget yesterday...
