    Has Trump outsmarted everybody?

    Regarding the El Salvador thing, if folks can’t see why some Dem. Congress people, judges and governors are now sticking their Pinocchio's into matters that they really do not care about then they’re not watching. Watching for what, one might ask? Their bank accounts to be sure. People in...

    Has Trump outsmarted everybody?

    There actually is a very good immigration policy that worked for years. It starts with the number of people allowed from each country to come to the U.S. and apply for citizenship. Each applicant has to be vetted and upon acceptance must wait in line. Simple. The lotto holders and asylum...

    Has Trump outsmarted everybody?

    Good question but if we remember Chairman Mao who said that if it came to nuclear war and the total annilation of the world, there would be at least 2 Chinese left standing amongst the rubble. Now, I’m not sure if XI is as philosophically studied as Mao was but it is something to think about...

    Has Trump outsmarted everybody?

    A lot of more professional people far more familiar with the bond market than I are asking the same question. There’s a lot of speculation that if XI’s regime sold off their shares that American real estate and mortgages would be negatively affected whilst I have also read that the treasury...

    I have never taken a flu vaccine nor had the flu. Some thoughts from Dr John Campbell...

    It has been oft said, probably millions of times, that flu shots do not cause the flu and I guess I am okay with that very scientific statement. BUT…it was a chilly March morning at Fort Polk in 1967 when after chow, we were all marched to the dispensary to receive our mandatory flu shots. It...

    Do you have any health problems?

    The uptick of telling yourself that you’re old now is that if we live another day we’re not as old now as we will be then ergo I’m “younger” than I will be tomorrow. Yup….If I live to be 80 I will be able to look back at now and say, “when I was a younger man my biggest complaint was having a...

    Here’s one link. Granted, CNN is NOT the best news source but I have no problem providing more credible links if you’d like. https://www.cnn.com/2019/02/01/politics/us-intelligence-chinese-student-espionage/index.html

    Has Trump outsmarted everybody?

    The majority of the polls I take interest in are the polls that are segmented into categories such as: The border The illegal immigrants, / gangs DOGE in reference to its finding fraud, corruption, mishandling of taxpayer money etc, etc. I may dislike one thing Trump is doing but might like...

    Has Trump outsmarted everybody?

    It may sound weird but over 50 countries are countering by dropping their tariffs for American made products. Trump pretty much said that would happen and he will respond accordingly. They lower their tariffs and we lower ours on their products.

    Has Trump outsmarted everybody?

    Many years ago, Forbes was on the J. Carson show and explained how a multitude of minor stock holders got wealthy shortly after the ‘29 crash. To paraphrase the conversation, Forbes said that those who didn’t panic simply left their shares alone and if they could, they bought more shares and...

    Toothache

    I got rid of ‘em. That said, when I did have toothaches, I used a mixture of fairly hot water and epsom salts. I would take a mouthful of the mixture and hold it until the water cooled, spit it out and then do it again and again for about 10 minutes. It helps reduce the swelling and can...

    Exercising

    Just a mention: The overwhelming thought about doing core workouts is that we’re only looking at those 6 pack abs that we want. Truth is, the core takes in a lot more territory than just the abdominal muscles. it takes a lot of practice but to build a brain/muscle connection, the parts of the...

    Exercising

    Exercise is kind of a jinxie type of word that is rarely used among those who train or workout unless we’re talking about a singular exercise which is included within a training session. Yes, I know that it’s sort of petty but the word workout or training is conducive to muscular improvement...

    You left the toilet seat up

    I do not worry about such things. Since I wear sweat pants most of the time, I just drop ‘em and sit down. The other two reasons why I sit instead of stand is that, (1) I never miss and (2) every opportunity taken to work my legs (squat) is a good thing.

    What do you think of fast food restaurants?

    In a couple of ways, FF is a necessity. We’re a fast paced nation complete with a couple of generations of impatient people so fast food goes with it. I do heartily agree that many need a good cleaning but I have also seen some terrifying cases of unhealthy environments within the casual and...

    What is Your Reason for Sponsoring a Forum?

    I and 2 others started a forum a number of years ago with the hopes of meeting more people who were serious minded and liked to explore and do research. What became of it is a topic for another day but….. To the topic at hand, I’d have to ask the question: Why does anyone do anything? I love...

    Is the whole climate thing a scam?

    Uh huh. 3,000 years ago the suspected population of the earth was around 200,000 with the majority of it centered in Africa. At present, the population is about 8.1 Billion energy using, switch flipping people. So, rather than calling out the hypocrisy of those who tell us not to do what they do...

    Is the whole climate thing a scam?

    To that point, Al Gore lives alone now and still uses more electricity and natural gas in a month than the average home uses in 21 years. https://www.wivb.com/news/report-al-gores-home-uses-34-times-as-much-energy-as-average-home/ I guess it isn’t fair to point fingers at so called wealthy...
