Coping: When You Find Yourself in the Asylum

I was thinking Monday (after revisiting my pillow for a while) “What would people find really useful – compelling – conversation on a Tuesday morning?

Where is the Trump-Bashing Apology?

Didn’t see it, did you? Well, there are stories both on WND and InfoWars this morning about the NSA program called Project Dragnet.  SAurveiled Trump (18 locations?).

Coping: UHD 2 and The Art of Parts

Good morning from yet-another writing location. No, not on a road trip, or anything like that.

This morning I have that 49” UHD monitor online in here … Read More

Global Market Entrainment and Historical Resonance

Where is my Damn Rally?

Yee of little faith.

Coping: With the Death of Reading.

I have been perplexed recently – although not the first time – by a continuing erosion in people’s reading skills. It seems that with the advent of GoPro videos and YouTube people’s interest in reading have been dropping dramatically. Paper thin attention spans. We may begin posting MP3s to YouTube with our morning remarks. Although … Read More

Power Sources and Silver

This week I’ve spent a little time looking into what some have called “new electrics” but which seem likely to really fall more under the description “New Sources” – of power. But we don’t stop there – as we go looking at how New Sources may be using a fair bit of silver to make … Read More

What is a Deficit Reduction Worth?

Time for the Grown-Ups to discuss Healthcare Spending… The basic question posed by the Wall Street Journal headline this morning is really “What’s a free lunch worth?” They point to a Congressional Budget Office report: “CBO Sees 24 Million More Uninsured, $337 Billion Deficit Cut in Coming Decade With GOP Health Plan.” Let’s do the … Read More

Coping: With “Spring ‘Ranch-keeping’

Or, we could call this morning’s Coping articling “Shop Time for Bozo.” A more (or less) practical report this morning on progress being made on spring cleaning of Ure’s all-purpose Old Man Labs support shop.
