World Politics

My understanding of any type of politics = Zero.  I know that I know nothing to quote a famous greek.  With that liberating disclosure I can proceed to expound on matters of gravitas that people with inflated egos have been churning out ad nauseum.

Based on recently released hot air below are the headlines.


  • Kim of North Korea has the world by its genitals.
  • Kim of North Korea has a change of heart and is weeping after noticing his people dying - low end vinegar spoiled all the 'Kimchi' causing food poisoning.
  • Kim shows the world media he has launched missiles.
  • Kim has called the Americans to come watch him blow up his bomb making labs.
  • Kim has the best hackers who can create any video they want and hack wherever, whenever.
  • Therefore one can conclude that Kim actually has never owned anything except cheap looking polyester suits and walmart style black glass frames (with no glass in it) and is putting up a fake melodrama for the world press to come and video tape.  He is simply going to blow up a bunch of dirt painted to look like bombs.  That is his calculus.  Notice both words - gravitas and calculus are thrown in for no apparent reason other than to inflate my ego.
In other news - An emissary went to Washington from Pyongyang.
  • Kim sent a letter to Trump asking if he wants a gluten free meal when they meet in Singapore.
  • Kim wants to shop in Singapore or his wife will divorce him.
  • Trump wants to shop in the same store that Kim will be shopping so he can show him how his new trade policy is making it easier to buy things made in the USA but in a mall in Singapore.
  • Therefore they end up buying Kirkland /Costco branded hot dogs on the cheap like never before and take that to the party.
  • Another part of the note asked Donald to bring the American Kim to the party.  Kardashian declined.  There was no room for two Kim sized egos.

Of chocolates

I like chocolates. Godiva Dark with Almonds - not sure of the naked woman on the horse to be the icon of some choice cocoa based products but tastes good. Started in Belgium but now owned by some Turks. Cadburys - Fruit and Nut Milk Bars - awesome combination of dried fruit pieces along with a medley of nuts makes your toungue dance - started by a Brit now owen by Kraft USA. Lindt Hazelnut spheres - made by a Swiss confectioner are divine balls that melt in your mouth with a lingering nutty taste Ghirardelli Milk Crisp Squares - crunchy and light these milk squares are easy on the palate but pack some serious calories - all good I say! Originally founded by an Italian who moved around till he landed in SF Bay today also owned by the Swiss Lindt empire.

Columbia SC

 The Palmetto state.  One of the confederate kinds. History dating couple centuries back.  We visited the capital yet again this time to take in the SC State Museum. Occupying the former digs (literally remodeled) of an erstwhile cotton mill this structure is an amazing piece of reimagination.  Four floors of excitement for kids and young at heart alike. Located on the shores of the Congaree River formed when the Broad meets up with the Saluda River, this edifice is approx. 60 years old.  The front of the building has a more modern planetarium that was added about a decade ago.  The museum itself has different areas of interest segregated on each of its four floors. The first floor has gift shop and a diorama of some of the local geography including the swamps and the state beaches with audio guides to help understand what fauna thrives locally. The second floor is all about natural history and showcases animal kingdom that may have survived on this latitud...

Cost of entrepreneurship

Last night I attended a guest lecture on the subject of disruptive technology and entrepreneurship.  Lecture was free but it was used as a pitch by the University that hosted it to attract new customers. The speaker was somewhat respectable fellow who happened to hail from India and spoke eloquently.   One of the key message was around how the professors in this university were ranked among the very best money can buy. Cost of the MBA program mere $110,000 and oh we also buy some dinner if you have late class.  So now the math is simple-  is learning to be entrepreneurial worth the cost of entry? That is assuming you end up being one.   What of those that do not?  or the ones that are not successful at being the entrepreneur?  Is that being a pessimist before even being handed the glass. What I found strange is that people will bet big money on the glimmer of hope that they might just make a entrepreneurial debut and hit it big.  The unive...
