Victoria is Satan’s wife

I am 67 4/7. Lucky soul and lucky stars in my California life all things considered. At 67 I have been blessed with witnessing the the highest decline of intelligence in 67 years of increased madness. I have been able to fight back and shout out and after Gulf War 2 my survival instincts kicked in. War is, was and shall always be the health of any State. The abolition of the State may be able to impede war and may also lead a nation into freedom and adulthood.

First thing I remember

Was asking Papa, "Why?"

For there were many things I didn't know

And Daddy always smiled

Took me by the hand

Saying, "Someday you'll understand"

Well, I'm here to tell you now each and every mother's son

You better learn it fast, you better learn it young

'Cause someday never comes

The Baltimore bridge: What a story to wake up to! I worked for a container shipping company for three years, so I have some understanding of what Maersk faces. They have got to get the Dali moved to a port where they can offload the containers. From there the containers will have to move via truck and rail, if only to another port. What a nightmare for them. Not to mention the thousands of cars that normally travel over that bridge. Alternative highways will be jammed.

Three big stories at once is a bit overmuch (Moscow terrorist attack and Gaza being the other two). I admit that from California Baltimore is a bridge too far.

Nice peaches!

Goliath becoming very out in the open lately. Cold control becoming warmer.

The ship had a port pilot.

I know bow thrusters have long since replaced the need for tug boats but it is undeniable they’d have come in handy when the vessel went wayward inching closer to the bridge. Are there none that could’ve been deployed? I don’t know. Maybe not. But it’s a stark reminder that in today’s modern world it might be handy to have some old fashioned backups just in case.
