Did not hit publish yesterday… Again. Silly stuff, that. Now I am in New York, home of the Me and Land of the Grind. We’ve spent most of our day walking around Central Park. Actually, we’ve spent most of our day in transit and then we walked around Central Park. We’re staying close enough to the midtown Trump Tower to realize how much of a police cordon is covering that area. That man Trump is living his best life. Sadly, he won’t be satisfied by it. People like that really never are satisfied with their success. I’d love to think it is because of how they got there, but I know better. It is because it isn’t enough. They can always say they are number one, but unless there is no doubt and no questioning of that, they’re not going to be satisfied. Even then, the lack of challenge is going to piss them off. It is always a lose-lose. Case and Point: The man is suing one of the largest banks in the world for closing his account. He’s suing for something like 5 Billion and he’ll probably win the case. So, congrat’s Big Orange, you won… but you’ll never win.
Moving on..
Some Thoughts:
- Absolutely Bonkers Headline of the Day: “She was an orphan adopted from Iran by a US veteran. The Trump administration wants to deport her”
- Winter Olympics… I really wish I cared more. These competitions are meant to be a huge source of national pride, but I have zero connection to most of the events being offered. At least in the Summer Olympics I recognize the sports and feel some base level understanding of the athleticism involved. Here I’m hearing about 40 year old housewives hopping on and taking home gold… and then there’s curling. Don’t get me wrong, some of these events are crazy cool and athletic. I just lack the care.
- Still some time on the old clock. So I am going to ramble until I can–
