When the whole world is running toward a cliff, He who is running in the opposite direction appears to have lost his mind.

That's why some of you appear to your colleagues or neighbors or even some family members to have lost your mind as you are running away from the cliff as they like lemmings

are rushing to go over it. I think how many people during the COVID freak out thought I was nuts for some of the things I would say.

I mean people that I know, people that I don't know that I would call them friends.

That's kind of words that kind of relate. I don't know that I would call them friends.

But it's kind of words that kind of relationships

that you loosely call a friend because you interact with them.

You see them on occasion because you have something in common.

For some of you that's a neighborhood association, for some of you that's the workplace,

whatever that may be.

And you see those people and you think you have some degree of affinity or at least familiarity but then you realize that you're different.

They're different and you're different. You don't share the same values, you don't

approach the world in the same way.

What happened at the Olympic opening?

I confess I didn't watch it. The Olympics, the bloom is off the roads for me with the Olympics

and has been for some number of years, which is most unfortunate because I grew up loving it.

My parents loved it.

It was exciting.

It was our nation.

I mean, come on. I'll watch America kick the world's ass in tiddly wings I don't care it doesn't have to just be war
