Big Red Car here in a dripping ATX day. It is the kind of day for a long nap and some football.
The Boss is down in Houston for a wedding and I’m left with the house sitter and NO prospect of a ride with the top down.
The house sitter is usually good for a bit of wilding but not today. Too much rain.
So, I was rummaging through The Boss’s computer and found his stock of short stories. Continue reading
Big Red Car here on a slightly cloudy, cool ATX morning. Still, it is the ATX and it is on Earth as it is in Texas, y’all.
Today we get a bit cerebral on you meaning we are going to talk about the difference amongst skeptics, deniers, and opponents.
Not a particularly inspiring topic but a useful one. Continue reading
Big Red Car here. It’s a little gray in the ATX this afternoon but it’s a great time for all.
The Boss’ Perfect Daughter got married on Saturday. It was a grand thing!
The pictures are not yet out but there are a few leaks of My Perfect Daughter! Continue reading
Big Red Car here on a nice sunny ATX day with a bit of a chill in the air. 52F but headed to 80F this afternoon. Ahh, on Earth as it is in the ATX.
So, did you watch the beclowning of the Republican debate last night?
It is difficult to imagine that anyone could have done a more ham handed, amateurish, biased, transparent mash up of what CNBC did last night. Continue reading
Big Red Car here on a rainy Saturday morning. Ahhh, we are going to get the big Mexican hurricane shortly and we are going to get a lot of rain.
So Thursday saw Hillary Clinton’s tour-de-force before the House Benghazi committee.
She wrestled them to the ground and made them eat shit. Figuratively speaking, or course.
Who actually ate shit? The American people but who cares about them anyway? Continue reading
Big Red Car here on a delightful Wednesday afternoon in the ATX. Just a tad warmer than 80F but a bit humid. Ahhh, it’s still very nice.
Not very nice? The Republican Establishment — those chaps who spend all their time fleecing widows, shanghaiing orphans, picking on the ethnicities, and berating the “special” folk.
They don’t like The Donald.
Who cares why? They just don’t like him. They DO like Jeb Bush but therein lies the problem; the electorate is already committed — at about the 90% rate — to “anybody but Bush.” Continue reading
Big Red Car here. Ahhh, a crisp, cool, sunny morning with the sun just peeking over the trees over toward the University of Texas. [I am parked west of the campus on the other side of Shoal Creek.]
Today, the subject is the issue of success.
There is nothing that threatens success like success. <<< Read that again. Say it again. Hmmm.
Listen, dear reader, while the Big Red Car tells you about what can go wrong with success. It is a subtle but very dangerous thing, y’all. Continue reading
Big Red Car here on a glorious Friday — sunny, clear, crisp but going to warm up this afternoon just the way we like it in the ATX.
So, Vlad the Pute is turning the Russian military loose in Syria to strut its stuff. Keep your eye on this development as it will be a huge change in the future of the Middle East. No conjecture here — this will be huge. Count on it.
The Russian military has historically been held in very low esteem by professional observers. It was once a brute force that overwhelmed its enemies (most famously in World War II) with sheer numbers and material rather than expertise, strategy, and tactics. It was always thought of as being a little technologically backward particularly when compared with the Americans and NATO. Continue reading
