1/ Ok, lot's of new followers here, so let me give everyone my "Reader's Digest" bio.

I grew up in rural NC, and got my BS in Physics from NC State.

While figuring out grad school, I took the first job offered to me: IBM PC Company (mid 90's) mostly designing graphics cards and motherboards.
Any landing you can walk away from... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
So. How's your day going? 🤦‍♂️

President Trump could have spent the past year making hundreds of millions from crypto. Instead, he selflessly let his sons make hundreds of millions from crypto, limiting his own income to bribes, media shakedowns, and a free plane. Will the press acknowledge this sacrifice?

"The Diplomat" on @netflix.com is absolutely amazing. The writing is brilliant and fresh, the acting is first-rate, and the cinematography is stunning.

I'm genuinely in awe of people who can deliver complex characters and plotlines episode after episode.
The weather kept messing with me, but finally got a little airtime today in my favorite plane which is just one Tango from a perfect tail number.
Oh, Jim, what have you gotten yourself into this time?
