TREE DOWN TREE DOWN

WELL - that was fun.  People complain about weather forecasts yet 24 hours before the storm hit last night NOAA forecast was perfect and they even had the shape of the storm when it hit right on. 

There were so many spinning waves last night it was hard to see which one the focus should be on.  Personally I was focusing on this one.  What you see is wind. Green wind is going one direction and red wind is going the other direction but seeing red wind surrounded by green signifies rotation, perhaps not on the ground but in the air.   

We wake up this morning to this.  I guess we can't hide the pop up any longer LOL 

The max wind speed was 45 mph but there could have been a stronger one.

OK the Rodgers presser.  yawn.  I liked it only because he actually said meaningful words, not yada yada yada I just love football blah blah blah.   It's as if you asked a co-worker what he thought of his company policies after 15 years . . . you won't hear accolades.  Everybody has a beef.   

SO - we shall see what happens when a QB that has had a QB rating of <60.1 four of the last six years does this year.   The Packers can dump him after this year if they want OR keep him if HE wants.

The Brewers traded for Eduardo Escobar - I'm not as excited as I was for Yelich and Adamas.  However - he is an Outstanding glove at 3B (REALLY good) and a spotty hitter.  There is a reason all it took was a couple minor leaguers BUT, he is 5th in HRs and 6th in RBIs this year (RBIs are a meaningless stat)  in the NL so . . . . . .  In Strat-o-matic terms on average he is a 3B 3e10, and can hold his own in the OF as a OF 4e4

For any of you crypto currency holders you noticed a large bump this week. Rumors of Amazon accepting Bitcoin, Tesla, SpaceX, Twitter, The Square and others saying they will accept bitcoin and $800 million in shorts from a short squeeze happened Monday. 

So many gamblers bet Bitcoin would continue to fall and when it didn't these guys who borrowed $800,000,000 had to pay it all back. 

all in all - yawn.  If you are a hard core holder these price swings are meaningless.

Q: My child will not eat fish, what can I replace it with.

A: A cat. Cats love fish.

Golf was not as fun last night as it was last week.  It was not BAD except for a couple holes. Hit three separate sand traps on one hole,  drive, approach, trap trap trap chip putt . . .  putt  :-(

SO - for all of you anti Qrumpers - his relevance is waning and he keeps losing over and over.  The House, The Senate the Presidency and 4 special elections.  The last one 2 Republican candidates in Texas with basically the same exact agenda but one was a Qrumper and one was not.  The Qrumper lost even with hundreds of thousands of dollars in donations and backing from the CheetoKing.

At a recent rally there was a non-scientific poll and while Qrumpers LOVE this guy - 80% said they would not vote for him again.  NOW - I'm sure some were lying (as they do) but he is a fading flower for his anti-vax-lemmings . . .I suppose since he will go back into office on August 13th . . . . . LOL    

OH what Qrump say about losing?  He literally said HE won!!  How is this possible you ask?  Because a Republican won . . . . yup - and they will say YES - Qrump won!  

And and remember when he threatened every Republican against voting for the infrastructure deal (that he failed in?)  well - it passed - 17 republicans gave him the finger.  

*********************

In 2009 the Obama admin rolled out clean car standards where fuel economy would raise 5% a year  hitting 51 mpg by 2025.   of course Qrump squished that with making it 40.5mpg by 2026.  Now Biden is making it 55mpg by 2025.  YEA - that will happen  LOL  What are you smoking Joe.  OH WAIT - Joe is anti cannabis.

OH - bees and CBD - seems bees that are around hemp have much less stress and the worker bees seem to be healthier.  Unintended consequences.

Funny - the Texas deputy AG said Simone Biles is an embarrassment to the country!   Texas politics is an embarrassment to the country

I hate Power Aid (tastes metallic)  and I see Kwik Trip no longer stocks Gatorade - BUT they have Kwikade which is basically the same.  Just saying.

Have a wonderful day
