In 2011, K-SWISS let Kenny Powers become MFCEO. He terrorized the boardroom, insulted everyone and launched a shoe called TUBES.

Advertising peaked here.

30 cheap things to do with young kids.

I wrote this for myself bc I want to do more things like this in 2024.

- Scavenger hunt. Get AI to create rhyming clues with things in your house/yard. (example clue that leads to trampoline - Bounce, jump, and play, where fun's on display, Find me where springs launch you high every day!)

- Walk in neighborhood and write down every animal or bug you see. Try to get to 10 minimum.

- Tag at the park

- Throw the football. Get a light football so they aren’t scared it will hit them in the face. This made throwing far more enjoyable.

- Walk around and identify trees and native plants. Seriously - we do this.

- Stack rocks

- Smash rocks with a hammer. (Safety glasses encouraged). Look for crystals. They are the most fun.

- Hike and look for animal tracks. If you want to get really intense - use plaster of Paris to gather the tracks.

- Obstacle course. Time it. Get better. Do it again. You need to participate as well.

- Climb trees. When you are uncomfortable- that’s when they are getting the most value.

- Clean a car. The hose will give solid entertainment value.

- Picnic.

- Go to a museum. Even adult focused museums. The people there are far more gracious than you’d expect and the kids will learn a lot. We went to the LBJ presidential library and were the youngest by far. It was awesome.

- Sensory bin. Look it up. Cheap. Lots of time. Think rice in a bucket with some cups.

- “Paint” using native materials. We recently had some masterpieces created using smashed grasses, berries, charcoal, and dirt.

- Bubbles kick a**. So fun.

- Backyard campout. Last time I did this, 2 of 3 peed the tent. Still worth it.

- Fires. Let them help build the fire. Let them burn stuff. You can kill an afternoon with this one alone. Boys especially will burn stuff. Best to learn with supervision rather than unsupervised later in life. My 4 year old recently burned his finger (not too bad). He will be far safer going forward.

- Backyard golf. Just use a tennis ball and one club. See how many strokes it takes to “hit that tree”. Give your kids a one stroke headstart.

- Set up action figures / plastic cups and try to knock them over with rubber bands.

- Nerf gun shooting range. Time it to see how long it takes to shoot the 5 consecutive targets.

- Wrestle. Seriously. Need more wrestling.

- Fort. Use the couch cushions, some chairs, sheets, a table, whatever.

- Uno - undefeated card game.

- Hot lava. Duh. Another classic.

- Make swords out of a bunch of pieces of paper rolled up. Then fight.

- Write a letter and send it to an aunt/uncle/veteran/cousin

- Plan and perform a play. Extra points - film it and send it to grandparents.

- Make up a secret handshake

- Print coloring pages offline and do them while you listen to a book on tape.

Can you give me some more ideas?

Lifehack on how to tie short items 🤩

[Konstantin Kisin @KonstantinKisin]

For my British and European friends who are "shocked" and "surprised", here are 10 reasons you didn't see this coming.

Read this short post and then read the replies from our American friends who will confirm what I'm saying.

1. Americans love their country and want it to be the best in the world. America is a nation of people who conquered a continent. They love strength. They love winning. Any leader who appeals to that has an automatic advantage.

2. Unlike Europeans, Americans have not accepted managed decline. They don't have Net Zero here, they believe in producing their own energy and making it as cheap as possible because they know that their prosperity depends on it.

3. Prices for most basic goods in the US have increased rapidly and are sky high. What the official statistics say about inflation and the reality of people's lives are not the same.

4. Unlike you, Americans do not believe in socialism. They believe in meritocracy. They don't care about the super rich being super rich because they know that they live in a country where being super rich is available to anyone with the talent and drive to make it. They don't resent success, they celebrate it.

5. Americans are the most pro-immigration people in the world. Read that again. Seriously, read it again. Americans love an immigrant success story. They want more talented immigrants to come to America. But they refuse to accept people coming illegally. They believe in having a border.

6. Americans are sensitive about racial issues and their country's imperfect history. They believe that those who are disadvantaged by the circumstances of their birth should be given the opportunity to succeed. What they reject, however, is the idea that in order to address the errors of the past new errors must be made. DEI is racist. They know it and they reject it precisely because they are not racist.

7. Americans are the most philosemitic nation on earth. October 7 and the pro-Hamas left's reaction shocked them to their very core because, among other things, they remember what 9/11 was like and they know jihad when they see it.

8. Americans are extremely practical people. They care about what works, not what sounds good. In Europe, we produce great writers and intellectuals. In America they produce (and attract) great engineers, businessmen and investors. Because of this, they care less about Trump's rhetoric than you do and more about his policies than you do.

9. Americans are deeply optimistic people. They hate negativity. The woke view of American history as a series of evils for which they must eternally apologise is utterly abhorrent to them. They believe in moving forward together, not endlessly obsessing about the past.

10. America is a country whose founding story is one of resistance to government overreach. They loathe unnecessary restrictions, regulations and control. They understand that freedom comes with the price of self-reliance and they pay it gladly.
