Great point Christopher!!! When the first gulf war started, believe it or not I was going out with a Kuiwati girl named Nowal, that is her real name. Being salacious, she was hot, and it was a very physical relationship, those were the days, sorry.

I hate war. I’ve learned to try to not comment about it because many times it’s a no win situation depending on who you talk to. At the start of these wars I’m always anxious and worried about things going sideways.

I believe now war has changed. What used to be on a battlefield with artillery, tanks and weaponized machines is now waged in our minds. Governments, our government is now using on us what they have used to destroy other nations. Issues brought up to intentionally divide, and forced discrimination is their weapon of choice.

So I agree with you Christopher, we are all watching a production that is our government and the media. I believe nothing until I see it or feel it, like how gas in my area has gone up to nearly 3 dollars a gallon again. Or the one bag of groceries I picked up last night was nearly 100 dollars. The big beautiful bill is going to continue and excel inflation. Printing and spending 2 trillion dollars more than we take in has no other end result than our money being devalued. Any economist that tries to tell you different is a big fucking liar.

What we are watching is the 9th remake of that old movie we’ve seen over and over again. There’s just a new leading star actor that loves the lights and the camera, Donald Trump.

I no longer believe anything they or the MSM say, and that’s been for a long time now. We’d all be far better off without any of them. I truly wish that they simply leave me alone. J.Goodrich

About the only major event I can recall knowing where I was was back in 1963 in an 8th grade classroom when we heard that JFK had been shot. Other than 9/11, I don't recall many other events other than hearing that my draft number in the draft lotto in 1970 (I think) was #252.

Obsession over the past is what destroys the now. Yes, perhaps pay attention to history, if it is believable, but never relive it. No war stories for me.
