I just watched “Out of the Past” (1947) starring Robert Mitchum, Kirk Douglas, and Jane Greer. I’ve seen parts of it before, but tonight was the first time I saw it from beginning to end. It’s a classic film noir selection with exactly that type of story line, and I loved it thoroughly.

Overall, I viewed older people with respect, didn't begin to find them very relatable until I was well into adulthood, even approaching middle-age. The older I get, the more I've realize that making assumptions about people based on their age is foolish and robs us of opportunities to learn from people both much older and much younger than ourselves. less

Biden promises 100 million people vaccinated in 100 days.Yes, yes, I know that the Dems are claiming that Trump had not national policy for distributing the vaccine. If that is the case, then how did we get to 100 million vaccines administered per day?

Democrats spent most of last summer running cover for Antifa. They downplayed the violence in which Antifa engaged. They blamed Trump for the violence. Are they now going to realize that they can't control this monster that they have created? Are they finally going to recognize that these people want to destroy all of the government as they seek to replace it with Marxism? Or are the Democrats just going to keep going farther and farther to the left in order to get the support of these anarchists? less

He referred to illegal immigrants as "wetbacks" and organized his farmworkers to help immigration officials. So, he most likely would have opposed Biden's immigration plans to grant amnesty and open the borders. So, does Biden realize this or is he just trying to bander?

There’s more cooperation between the Athletes’ Club and the Rubdowners Massage Squad than any others, but that’s normal for such like-minded units. I tell you, I’ve tried my best to cut down on the compartmentalization, it’s just not easy to do when there are so many specialty positions that they each provide to me. Sigh.) less

For instance, I’m trying to watch program right now that has gloriously blasting background music, it sounds great for distinguishing exactly which instruments are being played, how much pocket change each musician has on his or her person, and the combined weight of their incisors, but it completely obscured what’s being said by the performers. I’ve flipped channels and found the same thing on at least half of them. Grrrrrrrr. less

I bought this car in 2003 for $1800. Kelley blue book says it’s still worth about $1800. A lady crashed into me recently and totaled my car. Her insurance company paid me $6600 for the car. I scoured the Internet and I cannot find that value for this car anywhere.
Of course I am pleased, but did I get over on the insurance company?
