Monday Monday, can’t trust that day!
Last week’s Friday Edition.
Remember, ridicule and mockery are effective weapons:
1. Ridicule cannot easily be fought
2. Ridicule makes the enemy angry, and angry people make mistakes
3. For those in the “squishy middle” a Thought Splinter (and Part II and Part III and Part IV) can often be hidden inside humor.
Now, let the mockery and mayhem begin.
*** Warning, definitely a few off-color ones, in case tender eyes are about ***

I get that. A lot. My cousin, the other day, literally said “You’ve got to stop reading those stupid websites and listen to NPR for accurate news”.

One of the rules I try to follow is this:
The best way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.
Another rule I try to keep in mind:
The person most likely to cause me problems in my day looks at me in the mirror each morning.

Back when I was in high school I had an air force flight jacket; my father, knowing about my interest in the military even then, bought me a pair of General stars to put on the collar. I refused. I told him that I loved and appreciated his thoughtfulness, but that I was not in the military and certainly not that rank, and therefore I had no right to wear them. I think he really respected that…

It’s called “Astroturf”.

There was no separate “Palestinian” identity until 1964 when, with the KGB’s help, Egyptian-born Arafat was remade into a “Palestinian leader”; see what one of the other PLO leaders also said:

Granted I’m still unemployed – dammit! – but yes, I’ve started to have to put things back and tell my kids they have to go without for a while. Speaking of supermarkets:

Just like one place years ago that low-balled me on salary, and when I attempted to negotiate even a couple of thousand more, they said “It’s an honor and privilege to work at QRXN” and I mentally thought that I can’t pay bills, buy food, etc., with “honor and privilege”. (Later on, after reluctantly joining despite rumors of it being a not-great place to work, I had multiple people at networking events confirm my own experience with the place being an absolute sweatshop. I didn’t last long there. I have no problem with staying late when needed, but I was working 50+ hours a week, and I was the slacker.)
