Bar Scene I met an older woman at a bar last night.  She looked pretty good for a 60+year-old. In fact, she wasn't too bad at all, and I found myself thinking she probably had a really hot daughter. We drank a couple of beers, and she asked if I'd ever had a Sportsman's Double? 'What's that?' I asked. 'It's a mother and daughter threesome,' she said. As my mind began to embrace the idea, and I wondered what her daughter might look like, I said, 'no, I haven't.' We drank a bit more, then she said with a wink, 'tonight's your lucky night.' We went back to her place.  We walked in.  She put on the hall light and shouted upstairs: 'Mom...you still awake?'

@shawngorham Wait until gas goes higher. Boats and second homes looking rough. Don’t forget insurance costs. I don’t know…seems like asset prices tank hard from here.

I believe “SHAMPOO” and “CONDITIONER” should be the two biggest words on the bottle. Not size 8 font on a matching background like I’m supposed to solve a fcking puzzle in the shower.

This is your reminder that California turned a $33 billion bullet train project into a $231 billion open ended hole with no working track after 25 years.

They never selected a company to make the trains, ran a $7 billion shortfall on the first segment, missed 9 federal grant conditions,

And then Newsom blamed Trump for it.

@Todd_Sykon Talk to me when you drive an old diesel…Amex maxed at $175. :)

Imagine it's the 1940s. You're a carpenter. Power tools are beginning to replace hand tools for ordinary work. Furthermore, jobs that would have been impossible or ruinously expensive are suddenly within reach.

You show up at a worksite one fine morning and it's being picketed. STOP POWER TOOLS! the signs say. WOODWORKING UNDER THREAT!

Puzzled, you accost one of the demonstrators and ask him why he has a signboard in his hand rather than tools.

"Power tools are a menace!" he says. "How are you going to train apprentices if they can't feel the wood through their hands?"

"What happens when we can chew through aged quality timber faster than we can grow new trees?"

"Carpentry isn't just a set of skills and habits, it's a mindset. It won't be any true carpenters left if we let this go on."

You inquire further and discover that they have plans. Plans to exclude from any job they work on any craftsman who has ever used a power tool or even spoken approvingly about them.

Meanwhile, inside the picket line, a house is going up. Men are working. Cutting and joining the framing is going faster than you could have imagined 10 years ago.

You look at the workers. You look at the demonstrators. One group is talking. The other is getting stuff done. One group looks like the past, the other like the future. In this moment, you get to decide which group you're going to join.

This post was not about carpentry.

The richest man in the world took a break from building rockets and cars and satellites and came to DC to help the GOP cut insane spending.

Handed them talent, a blueprint, everything.

Not only did Congress refuse to cut the spending, they basically ran him out of town.

I predicted they’d call off Congress until the election to stop our new Epstein bill.

Johnson said on TV that was “stupid” and “nonsensical.”

But then he got a call from “upstairs” and canceled Congress from the middle of September until the election.

Did you guys, back in the 80’s, close the bar at 2:00 am. and then head to Denny’s for breakfast ? Your whole group packed into that big circular booth ? Barely fit. Ordered so much food. Then the check. Everyone just throwing $20 on the table. The girl got a $70 tip. Man I miss those days.

[Heriberto Camino @heribertocamino]

@alifarhat79 I've done that.

Working on my Platform for 2028:

End too big to fail and too big to jail.

No more stupid wars.

Put Americans first, and not just billionaires.

Stop putting the stock market above all else.
It's a Cantillon Effect Exacerbator.

Replace the FOMC with the 2-year yield.
