This week I start a new position in another division at the large corporation I’ve been working at for awhile, so I thought I’d better get some rambling in before the new work piles up:
-
First, I want to thank everyone who I worked with and for in my previous position and to everyone in the two divisions who worked behind the scenes to make my job transfer possible. You all know who you are and I’m both thankful and grateful.
-
How is it the Supreme Court of the United States of America ruled former President Trump’s personal tax records could be released to the State of New York to investigate alleged fraud but ruled five times they would not hear court cases alleging fraud in our 2020 National Election?
-
How come thousands of illegal aliens can assemble at the US-Mexico border in what could possibly be a COVID-19 superspreader event unleased across the entire United States in anticipation of Biden*s immigration reform but the Red Sox are telling me they may need to maintain social distancing in and around Fenway Park (to avoid,, I presume, the possibility of a COVID-19 superspreader event)?
-
I read the media empire Disney – who owns all of this (Click image to enlarge):
- has labeled some episodes of “The Muppet Show” as containing “Offensive Content”. Could one reason be the show’s theme song has a melody nearly identical to the song “Ich brauche keine Millionen” from the 1939 German musical “Hallo Janine“?
-
While I’m on the subject of music, has anyone else noticed the similarities between the main title song from the 1942 movie “Kings Row“, written by the excellent composer Eric Wolfgang Korngold, and the main title song from the 1972 science fiction classic “Star Wars“, written by composer John Williams (who also, BTW, wrote the theme music to the sci-fi show “Lost in Space“)?
-
Frankly, I find it odd that politicians – most of which haven’t been able to improve the conditions of their major cities despite running them for decades – demand electric companies fix a vast, complicated, and interdependent power grid in America’s second-largest state in only a matter of days.
-
Speaking of power outages, how is it that the Democrats can send thousands of troops to protect our Nation’s Capitol the day after an alleged “riot” but somehow can’t send thousands of troops to Texas to protect the lives of those affected by a natural disaster seven days after it happened?
-
Finally, for those who have a fear of flying (which includes me, for reasons I won’t disclose), note that while the video of the damaged engine from the recent United Airlines Flight 328 is both unnerving and impressive – especially if you were on that flight – commercial air travel is still the safest way to travel and has the lowest risk of death than nearly every other cause of death on Earth.
