Worry about nonsense or don't - It's all up to you.

It's amazing the things - and the people - that the news media thinks we give a shit about.  

It's more amazing how little of what they
 report on we actually do care about...

Why are they giving names to winter storms - that makes no sense at all. And who came up with the term 'Bomb cyclone' for storms? That is really friggin' stupid, don'tcha think? Juss' sayin...

This guy is unquestionably the greatest of all times at what he does. I don't of any honor a man - or a woman - could ever get that would be higher than that. 
For the record, he single-handedly saved the Tampa Bay franchise just by signing on. The year before he got there, attendance was so bad they were actually literally giving away tickets to games just to get asses in the seats when they were on TV. 
Now that's he's leaving, it's safe to assume things will go back to dismally normal in Tampa.

I had a dream last night that one of these was 
parked in front of my house. I guess, 
actually, it was more of a nightmare...

A look at Wrigley Field and the old outfield wall during Game 3 
of the 1932 World Series between the Cubs and the Yankees.
Babe Ruth is rounding 2B after taking Cubs pitcher Charlie Root deep to RCF in the 1st with 2 on and nobody out. Ruth would come up later in the 5th for his "Called Shot" solo home run. LouGehrig, who can be seen walking to the plate, would also homer 2 times off of Root.

Parts of Nantucket were underwater on Saturday as a winter storm lashed the region. Winds gusted as high as 70mph on Nantucket and over 60mph elsewhere in eastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island. 
More than 4,500 flights were cancelled across the US, while Amtrak cancelled all of its high-speed Acela trains between Boston and Washington. More than 89,000 customers remained in the dark in Massachusetts. 
The worst of the storm was expected to blow over by Sunday morning into Canada, where several provinces are now under warnings.

My point here is simple. What you glean from the news is always - and more likely only - because of where you choose to get your 'news' from. 
In this case this item was on the US online edition of a liberal UK news outfit. A VERY liberal news source, so of course they'd be slanting the story that way. If this was the only source you had for news, you'd think the rally was only about the stolen election.
Perspective's a bitch, ain't it? Juss' sayin'...

Okay, so we're back to these two jugheads again.

Spotify's stock went down six percent in the wake 
of this Neil young/ Joe Rogan thing. 
Big shit. The simple truth is, if you own this stock, you're a fuckin' moron. The company has never made a penny, and probably never will. 
Their stock has been as high as almost $ 365.00 a share for no reason at all. They don't pay a dividend, they loss money year after year, and buying stocks like this one is just betting on whether or not other idiots like yourself will drive the price up by following you down the dummy trail. 
This is pure and simple speculation and by any definition. 
It's not investing at all- it's gambling.

The original design of Mount Rushmore before funding 
ran out in 1941. I had no idea about this - did you?

I can't be the only person who thinks that is fuckin' hilarious...

The whole concept of 'royalty' pisses me the fuck off. Juss' sayin'...
