I found the MSNBC corporate situation quite confusing. I looked it up and understand it's now owned by Versant, and MSNOW is an acronym for: My Source for News, Opinion and the World!

The 1978 Superman movie is on HBO but when I started to watch a few minutes, I remembered the tragic ends of those actors and I had to turn it. Gene Hackman Christopher Reeve and Margot Kidder. Too much. 💔

O.J. Simpson's Estate Accepts $57 Million Creditor Claim in Goldman Case
O.J. Simpson's estate seems one step closer to paying Fred Goldman money he's owed for winning his wrongful death lawsuit ... because the estate's accepted a multimillion-dollar settlement.

LOL. A poll comes out that the percentage of Americans who identify as religious has hit the lowest number ever and CNN is wondering. "What's wrong?" And I'm thinking "Fantastic. People are outgrowing their superstitions." I understand church as a community or a support group, but the dogma?

From WSJ essay about post-disaster mistakes.So many fatalities from the Titanic were caused by too few lifeboats. Some lifeboats had been removed because they blocked the view from 1st class cabins.
One yr later, a ship with enough, but heavy, lifeboats capsized in Chicago harbor killing hundreds.

I highly recommend the book "1929" by Andrew Ross Sorkin. Even if you've read about the crash before, this book brings it to life. It's not dry. It reports the bankers involved. An interesting tidbit was that Winston Churchill was in town, as a guest of some Wall Streeters, at the time of the crash.

I'm still talking to you because of the cute dog in your profile.
It's about leverage. There are tough decisions to make when you're dealing with irrational and cruel people like the GOP. The shutdown was the leverage. The subsidies were removed in the legislation.
...your still having health issues. Interesting.
