I'll nibble through this lengthy video. I/we have already observed this 'thing' in action, too much. We've watched a few of his niece, Mary's video discussions. There's a Monster on the loose............
Sure enough. I can only hope the results of…
Zip code 14731, An hour south of Buffalo: I DO NOT miss it:
WINTER STORM WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 1 PM MONDAY TO 1 AM EST FRIDAY...

...Yada yada yada. MAGA boilerplate junk. Uncle Orange and his minions have trashed the country's reputation and have diminished the reach of U.S. political and military power--- INTENTIONALLY. (He works for uncle Vlad, remember.) Unnecessary tariff…
Last few days, before Christmas, I bought a big handful of shares in ET, Energy Transfer. Giving up on the Lake Charles LNG export facility seems like a backhanded blessing. Still too much debt, but they're concentrating again on pipes and transport…
US equities are too richly valued these days. Something will happen, sometime in the future, and prices will fall. My funds are all in the IRA, except for a bond fund I'm slowly growing. Taxable has the single-stock holdings. Oh, ya: there's a singl…
Tonight:
The national anthem for several years, before the Kingdom of Hawaii was stolen and annexed by the USA and thereby became a Territory. Written by the Princess, later Queen, Liliuokalani:

Trump also faced state…
Your WHAT is bigger than my WHAT, Donny? Jayzuz H. Christ. Every day he wakes up, his agenda starts with proving himself to be the best and brightest and biggest and most famous. Malignant Narcissist. Exhibit A. Grown up child in a 4X-L suit.
Nothing from the Orange Doink surprises me anymore. I'm inured to it all. Still, it is distressing. The Fearless Leader is an inept, incompetent, grifter-CLOWN.
We moved wifey from WBALX into BALFX because the Weitz fund was just not going anywhere. 2025 YTD = +3.69%. It's called "Conservative" Allocation. But we did not want our money to just sit. I'm sure it would fit the bill for other people. I mean, W…
It's been my habit to wait until after Jan. 1st, then give some of my stuff a haircut, including PRWCX. The pay-out for me from PRWCX was over $9k in '25, but I won't take all of that. I'll spread the haircut around, with my other funds. Perhaps red…
About 12% total return YTD. Kind of a bit disappointing, actually.
Worst year ever, I think. Compared to peers and Index. Wife is in BALFX. It did better.
Agreed - Possible. I have no faith that justice will be served there. The DOJ is actively obfuscating.
The scales of justice aren't just blind - they are also deaf and dumb.
Deny, deflect, delay. That's how Orange Donny got away with murder in a…
I was driving cross-country--- AGAIN. In an extremely used Ford Galaxie. I started from British Columbia, headed for the Philly burbs. The trunk was useless: big HOLE in the trunk. Nighttime. Wide open Big Sky Montana. The snow had stopped falling, …
