Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.
- At the end of this NFL season Troy Aikman and Joe Buck will have been together 22-years. That's longer than John Madden and Pat Summerall - which somehow makes me feel old.
- Are Emergency Powers a test to see what Americans will put up with? Always has been. First it was interning Japanese citizens into camps, then the Patriot Act, then the Covid lockdowns. Hopefully Americans have had enough.
- Matt Taibbi on how the State has used the Patriot Act to expand its powers.
- Judge gives win to Oregon State and Washington State in Pac 12 case.

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- Morgan Housel on Respect and Admiration
- From the archives but still some of my favorite art.
- Lead reviewer of mask study says Fauci doesn't make any sense. Fauci should be in jail.

September 12th Flotsam and Jetsam
Miscellaneous thoughts and observations on the day after September 11th.
Next year will be the 20th anniversary of the attacks on September 11th. Is it to much to ask that the day gets its proper due? Is it too much to hope that with the election behind us and people waking up to the toxic effects of social media that the country will be more united once again?... Mark Cuban is obviously in the first stage - denial. Will the next stage of anger get him kicked off Twitter?... My hope is next year the nation will be more united but in the age of "Social Justice" even September 11th can be divisive - as the NFL found out (look at the comments)... One of the things that always comes to mind on September 11th is Wells Crowther - The Man in the Red Bandanna. Boston College has a red bandanna game every fall in his memory. Never bet against BC in that game because the emotions are just off the charts...
