Here’s a great quote. It’s from an article at Bloomberg.com regarding the financial state of the parent publishing company of the National Enquirer (they apparently have a negative net worth - their debt/liabilities exceeding their assets). “...Trump said last month that the National Enquirer produced ‘far more accurate’ news stories than the Bezos-owned Washington … [Read more...]

Charter cable – argh
February 13, 2019 By
I go online to charter/spectrum, and want to check out how much it’s going to cost me to add a new service to my account. They will provide pricing (via the web) if it’s a brand new account, BUT will not provide pricing if it’s an existing account. They force you into talking via phone or online chat to a live person. So, I open a stupid chat session, after actually logging into my spectrum … [Read more...]
Bezos and Nat’l Enquirer story
February 11, 2019 By
Re: the Jeff Bezos, National Enquirer story and then totally unrelated Re: Alex Jones/Infowars website/“talk show”. I think, if I were Mr. Bezos, with the wealth he has, I would just buy up the parent company, if they were publicly listed on a stock exchange, and then shut them down. For the National Enquirer, it seems they are owned by a larger firm (Which also owns several other mags), so the … [Read more...]

“Executive time”
February 4, 2019 By
Boy, I really need to take some executive time. I’ll either be in the residence napping, watching Fox News, or twittering for hours on end. If either of my pals, Vlad, or Kim Jong-un call, please wake me up - I love talking to them, they’re my BFFs! To heck with this leading the nation nonsense, it obviously can run very well without me. I don’t understand why people think this job is so hard?? … [Read more...]
People not remembering a Halloween custume they wore??
February 3, 2019 By
Admittedly, I’ve probably only gone to a handful of Halloween parties in my lifetime, but for someone to say, “oh my, I just don’t remember exactly which costume I wore that year in medical school, I know I was one (the KKK robe) or the other (being in blackface), seems to be stretching the truth a little bit. Or, am I mistaken? I mean, even if I had gone to forty Halloween parties over the … [Read more...]
Little Girl Activities
February 3, 2019 By
As noted with my photos and video, I was able to spend time with the little girl, and her GranMaRose yesterday. Afterwards, we spent the evening playing games, drawing, etc., and Jordan (Lailah’s dad) drops by, to drop off Lailah’s little sister Ruby, for the girls to spend the night with GMR. Most of the evening, I played with Lailah, and GMR played with/watched Ruby. While I was watching … [Read more...]
