The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I forgot yesterday. But on Club 401K FUN-DAYS I DO WHAT I rarely do and turn on CNBC because the anchors allow a real conversation, the newsmakers come on, AND all this shit giving angst to Club 401K :) is - well - interesting for me.

I've said well before today, I said in the first term that if Clinton or Obama was the "first black president" - -- Trump is both the first "Trailer Trash President" and the first "Social Media President"

Him and his circle of bros and podcasters - have their lives within social media, period. Along with their big crucifixes, divorces, gay lovers, the whole 9 yards.

I was watching the Commerce Sec and every time they respectfully asked a specific question, it was the usual 5 sound bites......man what a lightweight. Most of them are. It was like listening to a high school debate student ----and I'm being charitable.

Usually in the late morning I'll be watching Leave it to Beaver or Head of the Class these days.

I might have to continue with this shit once I cook my flawlessly perfect egg white omelette.

Something has You People a bit agitated today. I can't imagine what.

And remember, I was wrong. Bad culture, bad socioeconomic trends will never make it easier for foreign entities to manipulate your country, and will never make it easy for demagogues to take power.

Yeah, I was wrong. You were right.
