Give It A Week

Nobody will even remember what happen in Kabul in a week. Everybody will be back to concentrating on how high the Stock Market is and how fat their 401Ks are..

What is a Kabul?

To some people they couldn't even care about Kabul, or the preventable death of 13 soldaten. They will blindly vote for the party and continue in the cycle.

Any better predictions? Maybe the next Nashville bombing...

Next week will be stories about how Brave Biden is... "tough decision of the Strong CiC" (from behind a facemask, while looking at his watch. )

Gee, tabs, I don't know if you've heard, but the stock market crashed years ago.

So we should all impatiently focus on the latest news tidbit to be released on Kabul by the biased MSM, and armchair QB all of the decisions that need to be made, while also condemning any decisions that have been made already...

---OR---


We could try to focus on something positive that gives us a glimmer of hope in these days of ever increasing stress/anxiety...BTW, yes, new 401K PBs all week so far !

I still remember 9-11-01...I'll remember 8-29-2021. Probably not for long though. since I'll be 78 come November, God willing..

Investments? Numerically up....but with inflation, could be down.

Not forgetting, just choosing to focus on positive events rather than complete cluster fuchs that make me mad just thinking about the way it happened, and who is to blame !

Lord, grant me the strength to change what must be changed, the serenity to accept what cannot and the wisdom to know the difference.

No one is forgetting around here. 10 of the Marines murdered were from Camp Pendleton. A couple were locals. I hope Biden keeps the drones coming in. Now it's just harder to gather up-to-date intel so we can launch. That plus the delay in timing makes it so the targets are likely constantly on the move for just this reason.

I hope we find a way to smoke every individual holding an AR 15.
