The Past Looks Better And Better

 The future, on the other hand, looks more and more like shit. Over the past two weeks Covid deaths and cases have increased almost 50% in the USA. A new wave has only just begun, it seems. If even mild cases of Covid produced significant brain damage, much would be explained. It would be far better if Covid damaged the human reproductive systems, male and female, with infertility as a result. THAT would be very good. But nobody needs brain damage. There was more than enough crazy and stupid out there, even before Covid. But a drastic decline in the birth rate would be wonderful. 








And global warming is real, whether you believe in it or not. Nature, as I've said before, doesn't respect what you believe. Nature is a constellation of blind, inexorable, forces-- and it doesn't give a damn.

From The Past Closely

 Will I ever do anything new? Eventually. Not today. Not tomorrow. Eventually. Probably. Someday.








Interest and motivation are lacking.

This And That From The Past

 Cool mornings and record highs on the meteorological Krazy Train. Like, in the 50's F this morning and a projected 102 F for a high temperature. And it just won't rain. No no no, it just won't rain. 








My sole objective is to maintain my very own personal status quo. No changes, nothing new, no novelty. Keep the outside world at bay. How I loathe and detest and abhor change. They say that life is change. Draw your own conclusions.

Sunflowers Of The Past

 Drought projections for Texas are dire! Well, screw Texas. I really don't care. My "horizon" is such that I no longer have to give a damn. That's a great luxury. 








I like this zooming in on the past thing I'm doing.

Looking Closely At Sunflowers

 Interest rates going up at last! They've been too low for too darned long. I'd love to see rates stabilize at 6%. Back in the day, when inflation got out of hand, interest rates at 10% cured that problem. This was during the Ford administration, if memory serves. It was a great time to be a saver! Rates on a car loan ran around 14%. Bonds were earning around 11%. Think rule of 72. It was a great time to be heavily invested in the bond market! And I was. Back in the DAY! 








BACK in the day! But TODAY I added another excellent link in the Site List.
