Being Irish, he had an abiding sense of tragedy, which sustained him through temporary periods of joy.

Good morning. Coffee with light rain. We needed both.

Ukraine is getting pounded by Russia and needs more help. They need more weapons that can strike deep into Russia. Dribbling out a few defensive weapons just freezes the status quo.

The Epstein scandal is not going away. People who have seen the list, people who were there are coming forward. People are not buying the DOJ and FBI cover up.

There are three kinds of men. The one that learns by reading. The few who learn by observation. The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence for themselves.

Good morning. Coffee done and now all my personalities are debating what to have for breakfast.

In Washington DC, same parade of horribles, different day. They keep packing more clowns in the clown car which is following the giant orange bear riding the tiny bike. Missing is the Epstein float.

Trump wants Federal takeover of Washington D. C. He also hints at wanting to takeover New York City. Trump can’t run the Federal Government let alone micromanage major US cities on top of that. Well, let him try, it will be a disaster and he’ll get bogged down with mission creep.

Good morning. Coffee done, awaiting time for 1st breakfast, then tea.

News reports say, Musk has his Grok AI praising Hitler and spouting anti-Semitic stuff. Xtwitter, Grok, Tesla and Musk Space all have a serious problem namely, Musk. The man ain’t quite right and neither is AI.

Epstein’s private island can no longer be found.

Looks like the Texas county hit hardest by the floods, applied twice to the State of Texas for an early flood warning system and were turned down - twice. Typical. We’ll let Texas and Abbott tap dance around and try to justify it.

Just in from Scripting News: I hate CSS

I agree.

Good morning. Coffee and breakfast done. Groceries bought, so I’m set for the Trump/MAGA Endtimes for about a week.

Seems like a lot of people from both sides are not buying Trump’s Epstein list explanation and one minute cut out of the video of Epstein’s cell door. Epsteingate is brewing.

Naming streets is Big Government Oppression.

I almost always interact with Micro.blog on the laptop, but as I was sitting on the porch I used the MB Android app to read the night’s backlog of posts on my timeline. I have not used the app on my phone in quite awhile and it was a very pleasurable experience. Nice work. Thanks.

Prediction: All the evidence files about the Epstein case will disappear.

Good morning. Coffee done, breakfast next.

DOJ and FBI say Epstein had no client list, blackmailed nobody, committed suicide. Case closed, move along, nothing to see here.

Yep, no cover-up.

Signed,

The Establishment

New to me: The Guardian is now using a registration wall on some articles.

Good morning. Coffee being drunk. I might do pancakes for 1st breakfast, because why not?

I’ve been thinking, (don’t run away), I think our education system in the US has become more about making good workers and not about making good citizens. It should be the other way around.

We deal in lead, friend.

– The Magnificent Seven (Movie 1960)

Good morning. Coffee. Waiting for breakfast time.

About 9 PM last night it sounded like a war, there were so many fireworks going off. Lots of money exploding. I don’t do fireworks anymore, been there, done that and got it out of my system. Plus, it’s past my bedtime, because I’m old.

Language is a unifying instrument which binds people together. When people speak one language they become as one, they become a society.

– S. I. Hayakawa

Well the Big Bloated Bastard Bill has passed. ICE is going to get a huge amount of money, bigger than the US Marine Corps. So maybe ICE will have the money to buy proper uniforms that look like uniforms not some cross between an Army surplus and a second hand shop. Just saying.

Good morning. Have a good Independence Day. Gonna be hot here.

To me a good Independence Day would be if Trump keeps his mouth shut. It won’t happen but it could. Maybe he’ll waddle around his golf course.

Not that much fireworks could be heard last night, but tonight will probably be noisy.

Given that there are 3 huge fireworks retail stores at the Interstate exit, I suspect I’ll hear some fireworks this evening. More, of course tomorrow.
