Daily Miscellany
Thoughts and flashes of brilliance that enter my head from nowhere.
Enjoy. Or abhor, depending on the effect of my "wisdom".
I chanced to hear the marvelous Mike Bloomberg the other night. First, I knew immediately I couldn't stand the guy. Call it my feminine intuition.
But when Bloomberg was asked why he flies private planes and causes more problems for climate change, Bloomberg was insulted.
I paraphrase: "I cannot board a regular airline," Bloomie told the interviewer. "I am too important and cause too much chaos. To save others all that confusion I use my own planes."
Say what?
Oh yeah, this happens all the time. You get to the airport and next thing you know somebody's all mad and screaming that Michael Bloomberg is on this flight and everything's a mess.
Who the hell would know Bloomberg outside of New York City?
Not to mention that snarky explanation about how easy it is to plant crops gained him no friends.
Can't stand him.
I know it in my gut, he's so full of himself he has no time for anyone else.
Much less asshole farmers.

Boy Scouts file for bankruptcy due to sex-abuse lawsuits
I am quite unsure why a company or organization should file bankruptcy because of sex abuse lawsuits. Are they probably going to be found guilty? Remember the rule is anybody can sue anyone for anything.
According to the article this is part of a plan to settle all those lawsuits.
Interesting how this became such a big problem once the Boy Scouts began allowing LBTGF leaders into the organization.

The Boy Scouts of America filed for bankruptcy protection Tuesday.
The organization has been barraged by hundreds of sex-abuse lawsuits.
The intention is that a potentially mammoth victim compensation plan can be worked out that will allow the hallowed, 110-year-old organization to continue.
The Chapter 11 filing in federal bankruptcy court in Wilmington, Delaware, sets in motion what could be one of the biggest, most complex bankruptcies ever seen.

Google Cloud manager is arrested after his Microsoft employee wife, 41, is found dead hours after she went missing from a beach club during their Hawaii vacation
First of all, one wonders just what is a "Cloud Manager".
However, the law enforcers seem to believe this guy did kill his wife though he says she allegedly died while walking back to obtain her inhaler.
Guy killed his wife while on vacation with their two kids.
How awful!

A Google Cloud manager has been arrested on suspicion of murdering his wife during a vacation in Hawaii with their children after a body was found on a beach.
Harvard-educated Sonam Saxena, 43, reported his wife Smriti missing on Tuesday claiming the 41-year-old mother-of-two had vanished during a late night stroll on a secluded beach south of Anaehoomalu Bay, in South Kohala.
The couple, from Bellevue, Washington, were on vacation with their two daughters aged 13 and eight to celebrate their eldest child's birthday - a trip they take every year.
He said Smriti, a business program manager for Microsoft, suffered an asthma attack and disappeared while he went to get her inhaler from their room at the Waikoloa Beach Marriott Resort.

Burqa-wearing man steals nearly $1 million in jewelry from Piaget in Hudson Yards
Some may argue that this is the problem with burqas. Why'd they let this guy handle jewelry worth a million bucks? All while HE was wearing a burqa?
https://nypost.com/2020/02/24/burqa-wearing-man-steals-nearly-1-million-in-jewelry-from-piaget-in-hudson-yards/
A thief wearing a burqa and armed with a spray bottle made off with nearly $1 million worth of necklaces and watches from a Hudson Yards jeweler on Sunday, police sources said.
The bling bandit, a man dressed in a “burqa” covering most of his face, walked into the luxury Piaget jewelry store at around 3:55 p.m. and asked to look at a necklace, sources and police officials said.
As the clerk pulled out the necklace, priced at about $21,000, he noticed the man was holding onto one of the store’s watches, according to sources.
When the employee questioned the soon-to-be thief, he whipped out the spray bottle and squirted it in the clerk’s direction before running out of the store, with the necklace and two watches — one priced at $64,000, and the other $715,000 — in tow, police sources said.
Piaget, where some watches are so expensive the price is not even displayed online, valued the loss at around $800,600, sources added.
