Happy birthday!! I hope it’s a wonderful one!!

LIQUIDATE YOUR RETIREMENT FUND 📉⬇️

PURCHASE EGG 📈🚀🥚💯

Don’t forget bringing back child labor and turning 8th graders in to factory workers.

46% on Vietnam is going to mangle the coffee industry. Vietnam is the #2 coffee producer in the world and this years harvest is just now hitting the water. Add a global coffee shortage where no one can get coffee to replace it.

A new version of a pyramid scheme.

This was my kids (11 & 14) reaction as well. They proceeded to explain the Boston Tea Party and Whiskey Rebellion to me. How is it that 5th graders understand economic policy better than our president?

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A “TRADE DEFICIT”—IT’S JUST CALLED “BUYING THINGS.” YOU DO NOT HAVE A TRADE DEFICIT WITH YOUR DENTIST JUST BECAUSE HE NEVER BUYS ANYTHING FROM YOU.

Ok.. but if the President can do it in only one day? Or say, just overnight… then he gets a gold star and a Diet Coke, right?

Why are his pants 1999 Brittney spears low cut?

It was a fire hurricane. Instead of flooding water, it flooded with flames. There was nothing “small” about it.

Firefighters are protected by a union, right? No one is just out there “firing” white men in unions. Are white men retiring and more diverse new firefighters joining the ranks? Yes.

Thanks friend! Dinner with you was the cherry on top of a most amazing birthday!!

I don’t remember anyone being mad at Florida because the flooding caused by hurricane winds. But all of a sudden fire hurricanes are our fault.

If 100 mph winds through LA are democrats fault, then hurricanes in Florida and Appalachia are republicans fault.

Please check in on aging/elderly people around you.

Praying that winds stay calm and allow them to do their work.

I just flew in to la yesterday. Pilot could barely land the plane. No way any air resources could be utilized

You have to have conditions where you can fly. The winds were up to 100 mph. It was like a fire hurricane sweeping through

Just flew in to LA yesterday and the winds were insane. No amount of water is going to subdue a fire tornado.

I was evacuated last summer for a fire in Oregon. Plenty of water. Plenty of rain. The only thing that saved our property was the fact that we were near a lake that they could scoop water up with by plane. Additionally, winds died down allowing them to use the planes

Spending my first day of being 41 at the bar with my friends

Winter happens first week of February in PNW. Almost every year.

It’s my fav game. If you want to try a board game version to play together, pick up Blockus.

Coffee is in for another bad year. I hear 20-30% yield down in Brazil for next harvest 😬

What was everyone’s favorite gift they received this holiday season? Mine was a AAA membership from my in laws.

You are KILLING this!!!

I believe in the value of college, but I also really believe that much of the skill/social benefit that we attribute to college should really be taught in the home when kids enter their teen years. Being a parent has really changed my perspective on benefits of traditional schooling.
