Re: Putin Invades Ukraine II
Has anyone listened to the latest Lex Friedman podcast with Mearsheimer? I need to find three hours to listen to it. You can shave some time off if you listen at 1.25X speed. Doesn’t work for every interview, but it’s good for slow talkers. Just use the settings wheel under the video. Is that faste...

How about while washing the dishes and snorkeling? Vinny, (in jest): Do you wash dishes (other than urine jars) or let the cats lick them clean? Do you snorkel or snortle more frequently?

Re: A Simple Parable about Israel
Mountaineer, Thanks, I will listen to the podcast. Do you think, based on what you heard, the historian host would have any revisions (small or large) to suggest for my little parable? He might question the ‘foe for hundreds of years’ in this part: “ Their worst enemy, Gang Jim, is a smaller group ...

Re: A Simple Parable about Israel
Picture this: the year is 1900, and we are in a large city on the east coast of America. The city has many gangs that fight each other brutally for various reasons. For over 150 years, Gang Alan has controlled a neighborhood of about 10 blocks by 10 blocks, so 100 square blocks, in the center of th...

Re: Rise of the New Right & the Battle for America in 2024
The 2024 race is shaping up to be really interesting. What percentage of Americans ever know who is running against one another for President. How many can even say who is the current president? Last I heard it is Calvin Coolidge. Won't it be nice if we get "silent Cal" again in 2024? He won't be t...

Both of us are improving; all in all, not too bad for us. No hospital visits! My wife's case was much like the flu - major head and body aches for a day or two, fever, tired. Mine was more like a cold, sneezing and runny nose. The main lingering effects for both of us are tiredness, low energy. Tim...

If it takes a lot of words to say what you have in mind, give it more thought.

By the way, this is fun, I'm learning a lot about how this game is played. Much appreciated. How are you defining the game?

Re: Chas Freeman, US Diplomat, on the Ukraine War
Why is any of this a surprise? People are evil. Evil people do evil things. Every attempt to create heaven on earth has failed since man's first attempt to be like God. Why get in a dither over things you can't control? A complete waste of time, talent and energy in my opinion.
