First however: Many people hate Mondays, but compared to other days of the week, we get off easy. For one, there are only 52 of them … Read More
U.S. Navy “mass reduction” patents have been surfacing lately. That’s obscura for anti-gravity. Like it, or not, we may be, as a civilization, on the cusp of a greater breakthrough than atomic power, electricity, or anything else we have been able to realize so far. But, there may be some dark sides to such a … Read More
Got some keen insight into reality a couple of years back. Oilman2‘s son was doing some work for us on a project and on a lunch break we got to talking about “friends” on social media.

Since my buddy, the Major, is down visiting this week, I spent a couple of hours Sunday in massive clean-up mode. We’re both the sort of people who do “big things” when we get together, last time being a 746-foot long off-center-fed antenna. Unfortunately, when you do lots of big things, the clean-up and organization … Read More
My life-long buddy (the Major) is visiting for a while. And he reports, he’s been a victim this trip of airline or TSA theft from his luggage. Before leaving his home up in the Seattle area, he placed a very nice pair of LL Bean slippers in his suitcase. Last item in, he is certain … Read More
This morning’s Chicago Fed Data in a minute.
