You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

Sad isn't it.  They messed with the wrong hombre.

Honestly, I think the outcome of all of this is way, way, too early to tell.

I have said it before but you always see the glass half empty and expect the worse.  Why is that?

Because the glass is too big.

So our closest trading partners and our easiest shipping...

Those partners have crashing dollar value, and cannot afford to do business with us.

What do y'all think that is going to do?

Hey, I get that.  We all have shit to deal with in life.  Lost my son a few months ago in a car accident. The wife survived breast cancer. 16 years ago. Between pissing off people here on TBR, I try to be positive.

Yup. 8/28/24.   Not a good day.  I don't normally post personal stuff.  But yes.  He died on the way to the hospital.  Never got to talk to him before he passed.

I am truly very sorry to hear of the loss of your son @Wingnut  No words of comfort can suffice.

Wingnut,

Sorry to hear of your loss with your son.   My best friend just lost his son last August too.  Heartbreaking to lose a child.

Sorry to derail the thread guy's.   Thanks for the thoughts.  I was just trying to make a point.  Shit happens.

No apology needed - at all. Just awful. No words suffice.
