When still active, working in a County seat town in West Virginia, I was solicited for input about a New and Improved initiative regarding the direction and focus of curricula in the Community College system in the State.
I had no arguments with w…
@Crash Quarterly earnings report for ET, tomorrow, Tuesday; may provide a better picture going forward.
True. I put in the limit order on last Thursday, overnight.
Next, ex-div date on 09 May, '25, Friday. Since earnings, the stock price has so…
As expected, regardless of the outcome, the Democrats are likely to deny any progress. Even a signed agreement that delivers just a 1% improvement—though it’s certainly more than that—is still a step forward. Meanwhile, they seem intent on shifting …
m* often asking for log-ins when i am not back on immediately prior wifi. anyone using vpn?
am still so very glad for legacy mode.
I just never sign-out. But I got signed-out, or my status was pulled. No announcement, nothing. My 13-letter/number …
The emoluments clause doesn't say enough? "No, we REALLY mean it! Including crypto!"
Trump and Repugnants are shameless and don't care. Dems need to wake up to that fact. Playing nice, by the rules, is an impotent gesture in the face of fascism an…
1,905 miles pit to geg
2,885 miles hnl to geg
My tool tells me HNL = 980 miles further from destination.

Well, now. THERE'S a big effing surprise. Shaking my head. The Orange Dunce has been put in charge. Did someone expect anything different than what is taking place?
We're hanging on out of TRUST in him? What color is the sky on Bessent's home planet, I wanna know. I'm hanging on in white-knuckle fashion, for dear life. And have 25% of total portfolio in cash, hiding from the Orange Fool. I count myself just pla…
He ran a hedge fund, before. Appeared on WSW on Bloomberg. Did he run the fund into the ground? ..... Needless to say, the a priori assumptions one brings to the table will color EVERYTHING you think about and the slant you put on all learnings, plu…
I got a summer week planned with an old friend, sadly MAGA. We will fly to Spokane and drive to the Kootenays, and Alberta--- to meet my other old, best friend, now retired in Cranbrook. Thankfully, I can claim EU citizenship, if asked. Canada "soci…

True. I put in the limit order on last Thursday, overnight.
Added just several more shares in the oil/gas midstream ET. Price is down, my cost basis is comfortably below the price I just paid, this morning. Dividend is big. With all of the uncertainty created by Orange in every direction, I do think that thi…
I'm currently married to a MacBook Air. It's been freezing on me, rarely. An initial update blacked-out my screen. Additional updates, which I initiated with trepidation, worked. I definitely do not like the way that Apple wants to own me and every …
Until The Orange Goo came along, uncle Mitch was the epitome of Evil Goo. He's done perhaps more than any other to transform the Republican Party into an utter and complete subversive, obstructionist, Repugnant coup d'etat tool from within the gover…
