Trump has fought the release of the Epstein files till very recently. Changed his mind. Release them his cry!!!
In typical fashion, he changed his mind. As he does with most things. He is now for the House releasing the files.
There must have been a value to Trump changing his mind, even if only a small one. Typical of how he functions however. Move from one side to another. Whichever is most convenient and advantageous. Whatever works best for him.
Trump decided to expand nuclear testing. China decided thereafter it must do also. Makes sense. Each side must protect itself, cover its ass. We are back into a Cold War scenario.
What is going to happen in Venezuela? I now suspect a typical Trump ploy. A lot f boasting and buffoonery. Threats of war. However, I now doubt there will be a war. Trump will sit and talk with Maduro. They will arrive at a resolution. One which was not needed in the first place or now. A false one Trump created a need for.
Let’s cut the abortion shit. Leave the issue alone. Merely another Trump/GOP erroneous scenario.
The Democrats are going to attack housing affordability under Trump next. He screwed housing costs up also.
Donald, hurry up and reduce food costs. You may not realize it, but you made them go up. You said this week you were going to reduce them. Move fast. Ordinary people are hurting big time because of them.
GOP plans to reduce Obamacare have failed. What next?
Like the song Onward Christian Soldier, Trump is Ever Onward. Word is he is now considering striking in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific. If so, the man is nuts.
Why is a foot 12 inches? Because it is based on the length of a human foot.
The scenario dates back to Ancient Rome. The average foot was 11.64 inches. Rounded off to 12 inches. Became the size 12 inch foot.
Number of bones in the human foot? Twenty six.
The Elizabethan Age began this day in 1558.
The Suez Canal opened this day in 1869.
Local writer Rick Boettger wrote an interesting article in this morning’s KONK Life titled “U.S. Healthcare Sucks.” I recommend its reading.
Coffee, beef and banana prices have gone up!
Much? Very much!
Trump announced plans to make these items more affordable. He should. He caused them to go up in the first instance!
Beef has gone up $5 plus a pound. Ground roast coffee $6-8 a pound. Bananas 7-8 cents a pound. Bananas especially piss me off. I eat 1-2 a day.
We are a right handed dominant world. Most people are right handed. Why?
Right handed persons make up 85-90 percent of the world’s population.
Begins with the unborn. In the fetus. From the 15th week forward, the fetus moves the right arm and sucks the right hand thumb more than the left.
Heredity an influence also. Humans have strongly favored their right hand for use for at least half a million years.
I close with some holiday grocery observations.
I was at Publix yesterday doing my weekly, not holiday, shopping. Three items were available big time for purchase Laid out in several different parts of the store. Turkeys, stuffing and pumpkin pies. All over the place!
Enjoy your day!
