Saturday Flotsam and Jetsam

Have a new miscellaneous thoughts and observations post up on Substack.

Reminder but Joe Biden and the media tried to tell everyone America was not in a depression even though all the conditions of a depression were clearly being met. Now the Democrats and the media are trying to say the economy is not doing well despite all the proof that it is. That's why the price of gas is so important - it's the only thing Democrats can point at and say "See!"

Truth

Friday Flotsam and Jetsam

Have a new miscellaneous thoughts and observations post up on Substack.

Love that Starlink is getting a step closer to offering cell service but isn't this eerily close to the script of Dr. Who's rise of the Cybermen but instead of airships there's low earth orbiting satellites? If Elon Musk starts offering free ear pods I'd really be worried.

Sergeant York

On this day in 1918 - Sergeant Alvin York became a household name when he (along with others) killed 32 Germans and captured 132 others in the Argonne Forest in France. York was awarded the Medal of Honor for his deeds. Sergeant York's fame was spread by the 1941 movie Sergeant York, with Gary Cooper starring in the title role.

Some people may ask why we don't have heroes like this in today's military. The answer is that we do still have such men but the media today just doesn't celebrate them like they used to.

College Football Thoughts

Some Red River week college football observations on some of the upcoming games and will Hurricane Isaias effect the Georgia-Alabama game?

Was having these thoughts anyway and figured may as well jot them down and post on Substack.

Thursday Flotsam and Jetsam

Have a new miscellaneous thoughts and observations post up on Substack.

Feel bad that I don't go into more depth about current events and news while paying attention to sports. Then I see that the impending landfall of Hurricane Isaias on the Gulf Coast focuses not on the damage that may be done but how this could effect the big Alabama-Georgia game on Saturday. Not sure if this make me feel justified or ashamed to have the same questions.
