This Month's Thoughts...July

  • Very glad that Revisionist History is back.  It's so nice to hear stories looked at in a way that doesn't go with the mainstream.  
  • Why is it that almost everywhere we go, the first thing to greet us is: Don't! 
  • Which brings me to everyone's favorite subject: politics.  
  • I've been listening to The Daily, hosted by the New York Times.  It's good, but if you listen to it, you see how conservatives think the news is slanted toward The Left.  You need look no further than July 13's edition.  
  • In it, they talk about how Donald Trump Jr.'s email saying they had dirt on Hillary Clinton crosses a line that hasn't been crossed before, and believe that if Hillary Clinton had received a similar email, she'd have reported it to 'the authorities'.  
  • Really?  
  • This is maybe the stupidest thing that I've ever heard.
  • There's been a lot of rumors going around that LeBron is gone in 2018, and, where he goes, there will go I.  I wouldn't blame him this time round. 
  • Dan Gilbert: WHAT ARE YOU DOING?  You've got a great GM that assembled a team that brought you a championship.  He could have brought you Carmelo Anthony and/or Paul George and you won't pay him an extra 2 million a year?  
  • Really?
  • We need look no further than hotels to show how and why accountability and ownership matter.  I use about three times as many towels in a hotel as I ever do at home.  I take whatever I can, make as big a mess as possible, and don't try to conserve anything.  There's no ownership.  For us to care, there needs to be ownership.
  • It's crazy how easy it is to gain weight in your upper 30's.  It seems like I work hard and eat ok for about two months, only to have it more-than-negated in a weekend.  
  • I suck at selfies.
