corner

I do wonder about this house on a corner. What does it even mean. Like there is so much we do not understand about the world we see around us.

trains

Transportation uses trains we see. Oh wow, that is what it requires. After all, we find that trains are a lot more efficient than trucks in using energy. Do expect them to become in the future a lot more common.

lonely

This world can indeed be a cold and lonely place for us. Often, we want to belong to something that is bigger than we are. Yeah, the tribe gives us some purpose. Well, that is what God can offer to those that do His will instead of our own.

ref

The word "ref" is used as a slur now. It is short for a political refugee, and that is a sad sign. Do we still remember that the statue of liberty? It had many uses meaning once. Oh yes, that was a long time ago.

no guns

What would happen if there were no guns? OK, so at first, there would be a massive decline in serious crimes. However, people would find new ways. After all, we lived in walled cities thousands of years ago. Back then, there were no guns. Yeah, the problem is humans, not in what silly inventions were create with our minds to make others suffer more.

wow

Frankly, we might overuse... the word wow. Yeah, it is creeping up more. Still, it is part of our lexicon and one we can enjoy. This store really is a wow.

empire

The sun is setting on our empire. It was a great run. However, we can feel a chill wind that is really cutting into us. Well, it is hard to tell what path we are on. Let us hope that those that come after us do understand where we went wrong.

amazon

Expect prices to go up. That is what happens when amazon moves in. People will be saddled with higher property taxes. A lot will sell their homes and move away. Texas seems like a great place this time of year. NYC is a bit chilly as we say.

pick up truck

This pick up truck was made back in 1942 and was probably in a nice SHOW room. Ah yes, it has certainly seen better years. OK, so what does that fact even mean? Folks, time is not kind to us.

castles

Kings use to live in castles ages ago. Modern queens are in mansions. The more things change, the more they remain same.

motorcycle

I use to have a motorcycle eons ago. Two accidents did convince me. Yeah, I sold it and found it was time to move on.

Pretty colors

Pretty colors amaze us. Still, here we are. Oh yes, it is truly an awesome enormous universe. However, we are tiny in comparison.

mansion

Here is the most expensive mansion. That is on the auction block anyway. Certainly, it does look nice. Well, it is up for bidding now.

oil prices rise

Right now, oil prices rise. Get ready to pay more. Frankly, this will cause some pump pain. Maybe, we can fill up... like before the prices goes up.

Paradise is gone

Paradise is gone. Well, in California anyway. The wildfire destroyed the town and about thirty people are missing. Scientists do blame global warming. Actually, we do not agree. Look at it this way. 70% or more of our blue planet is covered in water thanks to our enormous oceans. What does this mean? OK, so more heat means more evaporation of water and more rain. In fact, we see less rain, and less snow. The result is more fires and the devastation is massive.

screen

There is a backlash against screens. People are quite tired of looking at one. Yeah, we do understand you. It can be a pain. Still, technology races on. It is certainly the best practices that we hop on board before this train leaves us.

27%

27% of americans want a female santa claws - wow. This world really is scary. What next we ask you. Perhaps we should have a male mary poppins.

Bill Gates #2

Bill Gates is no longer number one. He is now... the 2nd richest man. Well, there are many reasons. He gave a lot of money to charity and is in semi retirement now. Also, we have Jeff Bezos as head of amazon. Like that would be the current number one.

Autumn colors

Autumn colors are so warm. They might be a lot of reds and oranges. Yellow can also make an appearance. Could be that we already miss summer. Well, what lies ahead is a bitterly cold winter with a lot of snow.

Floods

Floods would increase due to global warming. Evaporation of water is more. Also, let me add that people are irrigating new areas. This also contributes to more rain.

invasive species

Do worry on invasive species. Yeah, that is not so nice. Scientists are blaming global warming. Funny, this does not surprise me. Hey, we need to find a new whipping boy for science.

Toys

Toys are awesome. Here are some. Best that we understand what they mean. I do not want to do something that is wrong. After all, we are so politically correct mon ami.
