Thoughts for the day
Another nice spring day.
The 7.7 earthquake in Myanmar that was
also destroyed buildings in Thailand and China. The devastation is horrific.
When I moved to Tuba, I bought a couch and
loveseat about 1975. When I moved back to Tuba in the late 90’s I bought a new
couch and loveseat. This morning, I started looking for a new couch and a
couple of side chairs. It’s about time. I went to Designs West and saw some
nice ones, but their prices were crazy. The cheapest couch was $2500 and the
cheapest side chair was $400. Also, they didn’t go together. I’ll keep looking.
I watched Nightline all week. Even though
I DVR’d it so I could watch it a more reasonable time, I found it was not to my
liking. It was too much about celebrities and very little about the news. Times
change and so do tastes.
The famous Sundance Film Festival is
moving to Boulder, CO in 2027. That should be a good move.
JD Vance and his wife traveled to
Greenland, sort of. The team setting up the visit couldn’t find any Greenlander
who would meet with them. No business would let them visit for filming. They
decided to fly to the US Space Force compound, almost 1000 miles from the capital.
After eating a meal with the military personnel and giving a short speech, the
reboard the plane and flew into the wild blue yonder. Sorry but this was not a
visit to Greenland. It was an expensive visit to a military base.
Trivia for all
