Truth Be Told

Posted in Uncategorized by

I said I got it wrong and I did. Old Joe waited until Sunday to step out of the way for 2024. I said Friday late afternoon. I don’t know how I missed that but I did.

However, Truth be told, I am personally sure Old Joe already had decided to give up, probably Wednesday or Thursday. However, there was a lot of “horse trading going on” before the announcement could be made. Let’s face it, before giving in, he had to make sure he and his clan would not go to prison. I am sure there were other decisions to be made too, things we are not privy to.

However, Kamala does have a huge problem on her hands… finding a running mate. My guess is, whoever agrees to do it will be committing political suicide.

If she runs and loses, the running mate will never again run for anything. If she runs and wins, she will mess things up so badly, the VP will never again run for anything.

Finally, both Kamala and her running mate will have a stench attached to them permanently, especially Harris. She and the entire democrat party knew of Biden’s mental problems and swore they didn’t. Moreover, whoever takes over in January will face a nation in distress. Biden has done his best to destroy it, especially the border. It will take a man like Trump to get it straightened out. Kamala hasn’t a clue. She will just become another puppet of the dems as Old Joe was.

One question I leave y’ll with. Was anyone really surprised? Was anyone really deceived?

Okay. Two questions. You get the point. No surprises here.

Finally, let me make one more thing clear. Old Joe is not actually making the decision. It is being made by the leadership of the Democrat Party. As they say, he was made to see the handwriting on the wall.

Fits Like a Glove

Posted in Uncategorized by

We call it a Trump movement. In reality, the movement was there a long time ago. It would appear Trump just sort of stepped into it. I don’t believe it was by accident. He saw a large group of people getting tired of overtaxing, over spending and an open border. Trump had a lot of competition. Of his competition, only one other wanted to close the border. The rest were in favor of keeping it as it was. The fact is, most of the Republican leadership like an open border. They like the cheap labor.

Those who wanted a closed border of both parties, had but two choices for president, Trump or Cruz. The rest, Republican or Democrat, very much prefer an open border, but for radically different reasons The fact that Trump wanted to decrease the taxes and spending was a big plus. The fact that he wanted to increase drilling for oil, was a big plus. On top of that, he more than cut the drug problems in half. Finally, to everyone’s surprise, he knew how to deal with the foreign leaders as well. There were many skirmishes all over the world. Before Trump left office, all fighting ceased. When Old Joe stepped in behind the oval desk, the border opened, the taxes went up, the oil price went up, and the shooting started and people began dying. Indeed over 100 thousand people a year are dying from drugs. People are now dying from real shooting wars and American security is in danger from without and within.

Now, the dems are in disarray. They always knew Old Joe was not fit for the office. Now every knows. Well, actually they all knew before but they all decided to close their eyes and cover them with one hand and voted for Old Joe with the other. Why? Because they did not like the way Orange Man talked, regardless of the excellent job he was doing.

I think I can safely say that Old Joe is not a perfect fit. In fact, that round peg will never make it into that square hole no matter how big that sledge hammer is. Right now, I guess the dems are finally admitting what they always knew.

Calculations & Calculators

Posted in Uncategorized by

When I first reported to NAS Memphis, I was assigned to Avionics primarily for one reason. I aced their math test. It had 20 regular math questions and 5 algebra questions. In the next 13 weeks, I went through a 16 week electronics school. Four weeks of it was math. We went all the way from “2+2” well into vector analysis.

You might find this strange, but back then, calculators simply did not exist. We used slide rulers. We performed all our math on what we called slip sticks. Nowadays, I don’t guess many even know what they are, let alone how to use them.

Actually, the little things were not foreign to me. I took algebra and electronics while in high school. One thing I learned between the two classes, I was very good at the math when applied to electronincs and in pure math, not so much. In electronics, I breezed through all the math. On the other hand, I spent many a frustrating hour working on the algebra. I never could figure that out.

When going through the school in Memphis, we did tons of math and came out second in my class. I still have problems with any advanced algebra problems, though I have no problem at all with tougher problems as related to electronics.

As I’ve said many times before, must just be something wrong with my brain.

However, when they came out with the basic calculator, I was elated. Most of my problem in algebra was simple math. You know, adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing. With a calculator in my hands, I didn’t make those mistakes. It was my highway to advanced math, I thought. When I hit calculus, it was like hitting a brick wall.

For a long time, I settled on that. Then one day, I bought one of those TI calculators with all the crazy functions on it. I sure do wished I had it when I was in high school. For that matter, it would have been great when going through the electronics school. I knew, as long as I pushed all the right buttons, the work would be perfect.

Then one day, I was going through the instruction book and found that I could use the calculator to find integrals. I followed the instructions and it worked, perfectly. For the following year or two, I went around explaining it to people who have math degrees and asked, 1. what is an integral and 2. why would I need one?

After access to the internet, I decided to see if someone on the internet could explain it. Well, yes and no. Yes they explain it, but no I still don’t understand it. I barely have grasp as to why I would need it. However, even there, I’m shaky. If I do have a situation for it and enter all the right numbers into the calculator, and I am sure I would get all the right answers. However, I still wouldn’t know how to use them.

I guess I have always been kind of a practical person. If I could find a person who could show me how to use it in electronics, I just might be able to get a grasp of it. However, without a purpose, it doesn’t seem to have a purpose.

I start out from Memphis and drive a constant 70 mph for a little over 2 hours west and I will be in Little rock. I guess that is something of an integral. However, how do I put that on paper and how is that applied to other things? On the other hand, If I start out and it takes 2 hours to get to Little Rock, I know I must have driven about 70 mph. I know that that is a differential calculation. I do it in my head, it is simple. I simply have no way to understand it on paper.

I know, until I can figure out how to put it on paper, I’ll never be able to go any farther. And it is frustrating to know that I have such a powerful tool in my hands and I’ll never figure out any way to use it.

Well, it is academic now. I’m retired. Besides I am old and learning has become very difficult for me. In fact, when I think about some of the old problems I worked on, I can’t even do them, though I used to do them in my head too.

The one thing that still bothers me is that some day, some time, I might come on a really difficult problem that would be really easy if I knew how to use an integral.

Points to Ponder

Posted in Uncategorized by

First, let me say that if President Trump had any doubts about there being a God, they have likely been totally removed. It is that way for many of us. With some, it is one big event. For me, it was many little things, to the point I can’t remember them all. It would be very difficult for me to deny his existence when about every time I turn around, I see something else that proves He is.

In Trump’s case, it is a little stronger. Many times it is that way when God has a special purpose for you, Nothing, but nothing can kill you. Take for example, the unexplainable fact that Washington’s clothing had 4 holes in them. Yet, he did not have one wound during the Revolutionary War. Moreover, he went on to become our first president. God clearly had a purpose for him. Had he been killed during the Revolutionary War, I think that the army would have scattered and today, there would be no United States of America and we would all be speaking English. Wait a minute. We do speak English. Hopefully you get my point.

The timing was precise. At the exact moment that the shooter shot, Trump turned away. What would have been a hole in his head was just a hole in his ear.

Please don’t get the wrong idea. One other was killed and two others seriously wounded. There were serious consequences to the the Secret Services sloppiness. Those roofs should have been cleared and two men should have been kept there on the roof until Trump left.

Now, before I get to the actual points to ponder. The woman heading the Secret Service should immediately be fired if not for the shooting, then for her understanding of responsibility. It means if she fails at her job, she gets fired, no matter who else might be involved in the failure. Leaders, good leaders, never point fingers and they never say it is someone else’s fault. Certainly, in this case, the fault cannot be placed on both the director and the local police at the same time.

  1. There is a bit of irony in this situation. While the shooter intended to kill Trump, it would appear he actually helped him. No one wants to have something like that happen to him. However, it revealed Trump’s courage. It might have also given him a little attitude adjustment. Trump did say that every minute is a gift of God. I don’t know that he would have said that or knew that before.
  2. Apparently, thankfully, the shooter was planning a head shot. Had he been aiming at the center of his chest, the movement would not have saved Trump.
  3. The man got up on the building. How did he know that he could? Most folks wouldn’t try. They would take it for granted that it would be guarded. I am not yet thinking conspiracy, but this would give me a place to start.
  4. I was a little confused about them saying the man was a Republican… more than a few times. It would seem to indicate that they want to make sure we all know that. To be sure, there are many Republican never Trumpers but it does create something of a conflict in my mind. It certainly put a tool in the hands of the dems, didn’t it?
  5. Was he alone? They said Oswald was alone too. I’m still not believing that one. It would be very easy for someone back in the wings could have encouraged him and even provide a little assistance. The way I figure it, it took them a micro-second to say he was alone, before they knew. Moreover, I’m not sure they will look for someone else and ignore all evidence. The fact is, they don’t want anyone else to be involved. That would be inconvenient.
  6. Old Joe admitted to implying that Trump was a target. Many dems made similar statements and I have heard no reprieves. If it comes right down to it, many of them are regretting that the shooter missed. Some have even stated as much in public. Though they did not pull the trigger, they encouraged the shooter. If the shooter had survived, they likely would have paid for all hisw legal costs.
  7. One thing I do not understand is, why is the resignation not on Old Joe’s desk. The person who was put in charge of managing the site and keeping Trump alive and unharmed… failed miserably and he/she should have submitted that resignation Monday morning. That he survived was something of an accident. It was not due to anything that he/she said or did. Indeed, he is still alive in spite of all he/she neglected to do or say.

I understand about the suggested sightings up to thirty minutes ahead of time. It makes no difference. The failure was hours before when the the roofs were not cleared. With proper local supervision, the shot would have been. We might not have even heard of it. However, it still bothers me that once he was spotted, why wasn’t Trump put in a secure area?

3 Guesses

Posted in Uncategorized by

I figured I would give you a 3 for this morning. Just 3 short guesses on what might be or what might happen.

First, generally they do like to break news on Friday, right. Guess one, Old Joe will announce that he is out of the race this evening. Last time I watched him get on Air Force One, he looked back with the expression that looked very much like S’long.

Second, Kamala will have her turn in the in the spot light. I don’t think it is what they want, but it is what they have. I think at this point, she is the only one willing to go for it. This is based on the supposition that whoever makes a try will lose to Trump and their political career will be over. Moreover, she is black. If they replace her they will completely lose the Black vote, now and forever.

Third, I guess there will be a huge scramble to make Trump look bad and Kamala look good. At this point, the way I see it, they might have trouble carrying NY. I mean really, who wants to listen to that cackle for the next four years? Maybe the first thing they need to do is teach her how to laugh, and maybe talk too. I am sure I am not the only one irritated by her laugh and voice.

A Convenient Virus

Posted in Uncategorized by

The China Virus was convenient for Old Joe when he first ran for president. It gave him a reason for him to hide in his basement so as he wouldn’t be exposed to it. Naturally, it denied Americans the right to see how limited his mental abilities were and how horrid his ideas were for the country.

It looks like the virus has again come to his aid. They say he is sick. It is again convenient for him. He has been told to give it up on the election. My guess is, very possibly he was told something like this, “Old Joe, you are going to have a case of China Virus. While you are recovering, you will have one more to chance to reconsider. If you do not pull out of the election, you will not like the things that will happen to you and your family.”

Maybe, just perhaps, my imagination has gone wild. Either way, regardless, I suspect that Old Joe is going to do a lot of thinking in the next couple of days. I am sure that a lot is at stake on the outcome. I also suspect he will give in. I would think that the leadership of the dems can get very persuasive. I would suspect that they have only begun twisting Old Joe’s arm. He will like the financial package he is offered more than the alternative.

Which sort of tells me one thing… so much for their ideals of democracy. The fact is, to them, winning is everything. As the coach said, it is the only thing. When people get in the way…

The Race Is On and the Questions Abound

Posted in Abuse of Power, Biden, Communism, Crazy Nuts, Kamala Harris, Politcal Opinion, Uncategorized by

I made a mistake. At 9 PM I went shopping. I admit. It was a weakness. I have learned it is not as hot after the sun goes down and at my age, I am not nearly able to take the heat as well.

So, apparently, right after I left the house the stories started breaking. The rumors are flying and it is difficult to nail any of it down.

Apparently, and I say apparently, because I have not been able to nail it down; many of the dem leaders are asking Old Joe to step aside from the election, citing the fact his poles on in tank and a little lower. From what I gather, Old Joe told them to get lost. He said his poles are just fine and he is going to win.

I did find reports from a couple of networks and Reuters News have reported that the pressure is now on.

On the other hand, Old Joe has put his defenses up by trying a virtual early vote. His hope is that if he gets the official vote, it will be more difficult to remove his nomination. Hence, the race is on. Does he lose his nomination before he is officially nominated. For that matter, will it protect him as he hopes?

Then too, the questions arise. Is it legal to remove him by force? Are threats going to be made? If he does bow to the pressure, who will the nominee be? Then too, questions of law pop up. Can the dems really negate the thousands of votes in the primary. If so, how do they go about it.

Then again, there is another real problem they have. If he is not fit to serve as pres in January, is he fit now? Or…. at what point between the two points in time does Old Joe become unfit and how do we Know. Do the doctors give him a test at the beginning of each day and certify him fit for the day.

Then too, the one question that most concerns me. Are those commie dems going to try to make me listen to that voice and cackling of Kamala for 4 years? I hope she avoids news conferences as much as Old Joe did.

Then again, we could resolve the interim thing in a real hurry. We could quickly disqualify Kamala and Old Joe remove them both from office at once. Now that’s a thought I like to think.

SUCCESS!!

Gavin Newsom has finally managed to drive Elon Musk and his two big corporations from California to Texas. He has been trying for years. I would guess many will be making the move with him. More U-Hauls outbound from California.

I noticed on a side note, I noticed that Mr. Musk will be contributing very largely to Trump’s campaign. Do you suppose Newsom had something to do with that too?

Without Speculation

Posted in Uncategorized by

I am still not going to add any opinions to the assassination. However, because it is so factual, I will say two things. When I was in the Marines, with my M-14, I could stand at 100 yards and hit the bullseye two out of three times in seconds. Prone, as the shooter in this case was, I could hit it about every time. If I were in charge, those roofs would have been very closely watched for that reason if nothing else.

Second, due to efforts to get women into the Secret Service, they had women about a foot shorter than Trump feebly trying to protect Trump. Just tell me how effective that is going to be. If they are going to have women protecting people, make sure they are at least as tall as the one they are protecting. It really would work better that way. Well, I suppose she could just hold a nice thick frying pan up.

One Way to Decrease Your Enemies

Posted in Uncategorized by

No bout a doubt it. President Trump has one less enemy. J. D. Vance is now, not only his friend, but his running mate. Amber Rose also is no longer any enemy. She used to be a never Trumper, but last night she spoke out strongly in his favor. At this rate, who knows. Old Joe might even become a friend. Okay. Not likely, but I can hope.
