Have you ever noticed that the scariest thing in life is three young men together. Three seems to be the magical number for mischief, whether graffiti or violence.

Politics appears whenever there are three or more people in a single location. No matter how close they are as friends, it will always come down to two against one.

The problem with the rat race. Just when you think you are winning, you run into faster rats.

If at first you don’t succeed, skydiving is not the sport for you!

How many humans have been consumed by the idea of ‘If I can only win….”

Ignorance. Humanity has reached the next cusp. Ignorance was equivalent with illiteracy. In 2025, it means the willingness to believe when you consume less than 10 disparate information sources. We have entered the time of information unreliability. It takes 10-15 information sources!

Take any group of 4 humans. Watch them for a length of time. Three will gang up against the one on some issue with one person being the power broker in the three. Then the three will splinter, focusing on ousting the one. Why do humans focus on what divides us rather than what makes us similar?

Donald Trump attended Pope Francis’s funeral. He seethed that the event was not all about him. As did everyone else in attendance.

Humans outside a conflict can’t readily differentiate the combatants. To people outside, all Palestinians are members of Hamas. To people outside, all Americans are MAGA. No one is coming to save you from your leader/representative.

Is it an IRISH or CHINESE Curse: May you live in Interesting Times. Someone cursed us and I just want to know where to look!

Time Travel: Science fiction is obsessed with time travel. But if you personally were to travel one day (forward or back) the planet upon which you are standing would have either moved on or not gotten there yet and you’d be in deep space (and doo doo unless in a spacesuit)

Always remember the true words behind the acronyms BS, MS and PhD. They are Bullshit, More Shit and Piled Higher and Deeper!

If we ever needed proof that Trump is a Russian Agent-look at his terms for Ukrainian Peace. No American President-defender of the Free World would have ever taken Russia’s position.

I have to admit that ChatGPT seems to provide pretty thorough answers. I’ve had a few “conversations” about 55+ communities and CCRCs (continuing care retirement communities) and while not exhaustive, it responds well to follow-on questions. Much faster than google searching.
