Austin

The city of Austin has ruined all their regular streets and is in the process of ruining all their highways.

What makes you say that? They've installed bike lanes everywhere. And they've put these mushroom bumps on the divider between the bike lane and and vehicle claims. Then they've put concrete diamonds in the middle of the streets where crosswalks are to slow down traffic to navigate around the concrete diamond.

They don't want people driving cars. Because Austin is run by a bunch of liberals who don't want the citizenry exercising their freedom to move about the city while driving a car. They want you to ride a bike, walk, or ride in a bus. The thing is I never see anyone riding a bike. Pedestrians can use the sidewalk.

I hate living here. Liberals and government people ruin everything they touch. They put rules and regulations on us and rarely have to follow themselves.

The population is full of a bunch of bent over cowards taking it in the ass by the government. Every entity besides the government takes it in the ass. All the government does is rape and pillage from the citizens, businesses and industry. Burn it to the ground.

Melania movie

I fail to see how there is any interest whatsoever in seeing a movie about Melania Trump. The only thing people may want to know is why anyone would be attracted to such a buffoon for anything beyond his money and fame. Time in office has shown Donald Trump is an anus.

JT Williams b. 1932

 Happy 94th birthday to John William - my musical soul mate.  If there is one thing I wish I could convey to John Williams it would be thankful for the lifetime of enjoyment he has given me and the rest of the world.  My thoughts on John Williams are frequently shared.  Simply put - John Williams is America's greatest treasure. 

I don't know how much time John Williams has left on planet Earth as he has struggled with health problems for at least two years - cancelled all conducting gigs and has none scheduled.  Last time he was seen was in a wheelchair.  The last time I saw him standing was in 2024 when the infamous Sony Sound Stage was renamed the John Williams Sound Stage.  

 Don't want to dwell on his health; rather - celebrate the man and his music.  Perfectly written as if penned by God himself.  All I can say is Thank you to a man who has literally given me a lifetime of enjoyment in each and every note I've ever heard. 

Last year before leaving my job I went to Boston to hear the Boston Pops play the music of Star Wars played in symphony hall under the direction of Keith Lockhart.  It was spectacular to be in the hall john once called home when he led the Boston Pops.  The music performance was dazzling.  I don't think it was possible for it to sound better.  Anyway.

I wish I could adequately parse into words my affection for his work and the enjoyment he has brought to my life.  My first exposure - like many kids - was Star Wars.  I had a record.  My Dad had a record.  John Williams was the very first cd I purchased circa 1983 - By Request.  I have 5 copies of it.  Just in case something happens to one of them.  2 reside in Lexus cd players so there's always something enjoyable to listen to when I drive.  War Horse - in my mind one of the best.  Hook.  Jurassic Park.  1941.  Midway.  Olympic Theme.  Liberty Fanfare.  The Cowboys.  Home Alone.  Harry Potter.  Jaws.  ET.  Close Encounters.  Superman.  Born on the 4th of July.  Monsignor.  Jaws.  Jane Eyre.  Black Sunday.  The Reivers.  Sugarland Express.  Raiders saga.  Star Wars saga.  And so many more.  

 Thank you for decorating the walls of my heart and soul.  Your legacy will live on forever among the giants of Mozart and Beethoven.  Bernstein and Holst.  

Happy Birthday dear friend.

Auto industry

Is full of a bunch of stupid fucks. Believing electric cars were the future. What a bunch of idiots follow the vision of a demented POTUS 46 because he declared the future of the car was electric.

Executives fell in line like a bunch of ducks seeing their mother after hatching from eggs.

It was a colossal disaster. Most
People don't want an electric piece of shit car. They want a car that is reliable, predictable and convenient. An electric car is none of those.

The only reasons people bought electric cars were to virtue signal the importance of the environment, get a tax payer subsidized incentive and to buy the latest new gizmo. They're not superior. Their inferior gimmicks. The environmental impact is realized in production and disposal. The regular car's environmental impact is realized in operation.

Whatever. It's a failed science experiment. BYD, Tesla, lucid, rivian, fisker. While technologically impressive, they're unaffordable, unprofitable pieces of shit. So much so most of them are on the brink of bankruptcy and extinction.

Tesla remains deceitfully relevant because Elon musk has assburgers and continues to pivot away from cars into solar power and humanoid robots. The cyber truck is a flop. Only Indians and eggheads drive the mainstream models.

Fuck the electric car.

What’s the difference?

What's the difference between white collar and blue collar? White collar people wash their hands after they pee. Blue collar wash their hands before.

Post office

Proof the government employs a bunch of shortsighted, low iq people? Look at the post office.

Bottom feeders. Missed opportunity to join the digital revolution in the late 80s and early 90s. A majority of postal depots still drive the Grumman LLV for last mile delivery.

The last LLV was made in 1994 and gets an estimated 8-10 miles per gallon of gasoline. Think about that for a minute. A government fleet that gets 8-10 mpg with the last in service date of 1994. The newest on is 32 years old.

The vehicle before that was a jeep and was in service from 1955 to 1984. In 1984 the technology was nearly 30 years old.

Just an example of the antiquated backward thinking of our government employees.

They missed boat of email. They could have revolutionized delivery by embracing electronic distribution They could have been Gmail. But they're not smart enough to embrace new technology or think beyond utilizing technology that is 30 years old.

The next mail delivery vehicle is an Oshkosh NGDV - next generation delivery vehicle. It's an either an electric powered or gas powered utilitarian vehicle looking like it was developed by Pixar for their latest superhero movie.

The first order was placed in 2022 for 50,000 vehicles. I don't think they were produced due to lawsuits regarding an unsatisfactory implementation and production of battery powered vehicles filed by a domestic enviroterrorist organization.

Just another government program that failed to launch due national infighting which delays progress. In the meantime let the postal employees drive 30 year old vehicles that are falling apart.

The rest of the world laughs at us. Do you like our new clothes? We are a country in decline. A third world shithole. Too blind and stupid to realize we are the laughing stock of the world as evidence of being unable to effectively replace a 30 year old mail delivery vehicle fleet with something modern, useful and safe.

This country sucks. The people who run it do too.

Embarrassment to the rest of the of the word. Maybe the launch is
The new vehicle was a Somali immigrant effort ripe with fraud.

 Hits a home run!
