What's News?


  • Woman dies after plane makes emergency landing - The woman in question was found dead on a sofa in her home when she was half way through a 8 oz bag of Cheetos.  Cause determined by the ME office was cardiac arrest.  The emergency landing of the plane seems to have taken place about the same time in a town 20 miles from the sofa where she died.  Investigators are still putting the exact timeline together to see if the landing took place before or after she consumed the fateful Cheeto.  Current Vegas bets are on 'after landing'.
  • Mercury to pass in front of Sun in a rare event - Apparently the event will be so rare that most folks on earth might likely not even see it.  Some will be in the dark - literally and for some the weather may not cooperate but the public is encouraged to believe in all the astronomical claims made by their tax dollar supported space exploration organization.

  • Rain dampens opening of farmers market - The rain which viewers claim was coming in sheets at around 33 degree angle made it all the way into the soft wooden arches that serve as the opening through which to welcome visitors to the market.  The arches succumbed to the driving rain water and got damp in the process.

    What about Trump the hillarious, emperor of all comedy?

Charges attract

It is said that opposites attract meaning people with contrary viewpoint sometimes find chemistry to be together.  But I'm referring to a modern twist where people are merely attracted towards a common place because their uber communication device aka smart phone is about to die.  The charging station. From airports to hotel lobbies or even bathrooms, when in need they are attracted to this power outlet like moths to a flame or a junkie to a needle. A whole new business of supplying these hyper connected folks is now born whose lifesaver product is a backup charge. Asian tourists perpetually carry a phone sized battery pack stuck to their latest Apple phone updating their status to folks in Hong Kong or Shanghai or Bangalore as they pose for selfies with weird facial expressions and fingers pointed out in a letter V. Vain? PS:  I dis'charged' my blogger duties making this insightful observation as my phone is about to breathe it's last and my flight gets call...

Costa Rica

 Our first foray into Central America. That elongated isthmus that forms the geographic boundary between two vast continents of North and South America. Specifically landing for NYE 2026 in San Jose, Costa Rica. Capital city for this region that does not have its own army, instead relying on its big bro the Estados Unidos to the north is a metropolis of approx. 500K people. Largely wilderness and with both a Pacific and Carribean/Atlantic coast the country is rich in bio diversity. In Spanish it means the rich coast so named by Columbus landing in early 16th century and being mesmerized by the local tribes sporting gold jewelry.   Our stay included visiting the foothills of a large strato volcano called Arenal and enjoying the naturally heated thermal baths for a while.  Lunching amidst lush forest and watching indigenous species of avian noise makers fly overhead. Toucans, some sort of pea hens, multiple song bird species completed the spectacle. Iguanas and a lonel...

Its all over!

Well now let's not be fatalistic. Didn't someone say its not over till its over?  Okay so we are past the milestone of the American electorate voting for a new leader.  CEO of the USA or the newest POTUS. It was a time for many firsts.  In some ways it could be summarized as Slovenia 1 - Pundits 0.  As in the newest FLOTUS is from a foreign country that many on the planet may not have heard of.   Slovenia.  A dot in the south of Europe.   Maybe Trump had not either till he met her at a Fashion Show.  Having Mr. and Mrs. Trump be the First People was not what the pundits thought.   All the pundits that forecast the future were wrong. More analysis reveals that it would be the first prez that has no political background.  First prez who had multiple marriages before he was elected to office.  I have not researched this but likely the first prez who has a wife 25 years younger than him.  Fast forward to the end of his term an...
