Might be time to re-read this classic, as it may well be coming true before too long.

People who say, "I am a smart guy" or similar. If you were truly smart, you wouldn't need to tell anyone. It would be obvious to everybody. I’ve known some brilliant people; they don’t waste time telling you how smart they are. Rather, they tell you amazing things you didn’t know beforehand.

If electric cars are so bad, maybe everything should have a combustion engine — your ceiling fan, your food processor, your electric toothbrush, your stand mixer — all that evil stuff.

I don’t understand the resistance to electric vehicles. I really don’t care what turns the wheels on my pickup, so long as they go where & when I want them to.

Long-time NFL fan here. I’ve reached the point where I watch for the play rather than the teams. (Of course, I favor the 49ers.) But I am about ready to stop watching because of the rotten quality of officiating. (Rigged??) C’mon NFL, stop being cheapskates. Make Referee a professional position.

If you can abolish the 14th Amendment by Executive Order, then you can do the same to the 1st Amendment, or…the 2nd Amendment. Is that really a precedent they want to establish?

It feels to me like we’re heading back into the Seventies. Most folks today don’t remember it, but: inflation rate 5% to 8%, unemployment like 11%, mortgage rates 17% (or more), lots of crime…it was not a picnic. Let’s hope I am very wrong.
