Nice version of "Sweet Jane" by Cowboy Junkies.
I need to listen to the entire "Trinity Revisited" session.
Thanks!
A guess: is that Guthrie Center at the Old Trinity Church in Great Barrington?
Great shit!
The Dufus will pardon his entire cabinet etc... saying Biden pardoned a bunch of people. Congress really needs to rein in that power. Convicted criminals need not be pardoned.
Nor should they be able to serve as PRESIDENT.
Big Business gonna police itself? Never, not until catastrophe strikes, or almost. This was an "almost" case. How can an update make things WORSE? (Don't tell Apple or Microsoft!) Is this a case of technicians who physically handled things, forgetti…
Hey, @hank.
Productive thoughts. Of course, capitalism is the only game in town, and its basis is not the intention to do good. Capitalism has no intention. My point is that capitalism can be bent by humans to benefit already-uber-wealthy-oligarchs,…
Time and time again, we hear the need to separate politics from your investing decisions. I never understood that: government is where politics lives, at least the current official flavor. "Elections have consequences." And gov't makes decisions tha…
The real season is about to start!
Watching Michigan take it to the Zags, down 24 at half!
@catch22 I hope you're enjoying the game.
ADDED : pregame Zags by 3.5
This G.U. Alum is sorely disappointed. Looks like a "rebuilding" season?

This year we are going out for a four course prix fixe menu. For starters, your choice of pumpkin bisque, cajun shrimp, bacon and cauliflower corn chowder, or a mesclun greens salad. Then moving on to turkey, short ribs, pork loin, lamb leg, Chilean…

BLX dividend today was reinvested to buy a few more shares. My best performer.

Crypto is evil. Period. (with a tip of the hat to the late Charlie Munger.)
I've been listening to Lyn Alden. She knows a lotta stuff and is very interesting. Not making predictions, but explaining some plausible scenarios. She likes bitcoin on acco…
I let the mutual funds reinvest the divs and cap gains in Dec, then typically shave off a few or several thousand $ in January. I take care of some self-imposed obligations that way. I've been reinvesting single-stock divs. Thankfully, we still do n…
@catch22 That one is a gem. LOVE it.
Jimmy Cliff? I knew the name. I like Reggae. There is even a sub-genre here, Hawaiian Reggae. Bless him. He was some extraordinary talent.
Nosebleed upper section of the arena. A.I. valuations are nuts. My mutual funds own that junk stuff. My own equity selections do not include any of it on the menu.
The military has already been engaged in extra-constitutional activities, carrying out extra-constitutional (unconstitutional) instructions from a President who shreds and tramples on the Constitution every single day. Every single hour. Even in his…
