With ALL the books out there,



I always figured if one made it to the NYT Bestseller Top Ten list, it must be pretty good, SO, I downloaded, 'The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k'.
I started reading and haven't stopped, though it is getting a little repetitious.
The chapters are listed here:

 Some of it is obvious, and some is a bit of BS, but MOST of it is spot-on. Take responsibility for your own life. Face problems, don't wish them away. Don't have unrealistic expectations and don't espouse the rules/dreams of others. Face your own mortality. The dangers of pure 'certainty', and the tyranny of 'exceptionalism'. You are not 'special'. Recognize and embrace genetics, the 'hand you're dealt'. Travel to widen your horizons.

Haven't finished the book yet, but lots of good, honest 'mind opening' facts and opinions.
Seems in many areas, I am years ahead of my time, and discovered the secret to a good life, long before it was written down in a book.

Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the...

Yahoo…Dotard’s Big Beautiful Diesel Deal pissed off Ukraine and most of the world, plus well over half of Congress and the US, BUT, it helped his buddy Putin and his partners in Big Oil, sooo, we can see where the dick’s priorities are.

  President Donald Trump’s diesel deal with Russia would supply the global market with 4.8 million metric tons, or nearly 36 million barrels total.  This is equivalent to a little more than a single day of global demand.  The U.S. is a net diesel exporter so it does not need Russian supply, said Andy Lipow, president of Lipow Oil Associates. Goldman Sachs estimated the initial Russian release would only reduce wholesale diesel prices by $1 to $2 per barrel, which is currently at approximately $200/barrel.
