Pelosi responds to Trump, says she won’t allow State of the Union during shutdown

Even Warren Buffet agrees with Pascal. He wrote the Preface to the book "The Intelligent Investor" which he called "the best book about investing ever written." The author, Benjamin Graham, gives the same argument

Pascal also said "either God exists or he does not-and only faith, not reason, can answer that question."

Well, Frank, a jolly good morning to you.

The investment philosopher, Peter Bernstein said "in making decisions under conditions of uncertainty, the consequences must dominate the probabilities.We never know the future."

A little insurance at your age is to be considered.

Warren Buffet is about your age.

Francis will evidently continue his confusion, right up to the second following his demise; which is really sad.

I think that most people agree that we can not prove or disprove that God exists. Believers think He does, atheists believe that He doesn't and agnostics tell the truth, they don't know.

Insurance is a bet that something great or not so great will happen. The insurer wins most of the time but the insured wins some of the time. I nor anyone else have a clue as to whether it's a winning policy. It's each person's decision to make.

Now, important stuff. How did you you manage to age so well?

I've said it before:
"If I believe in God and then discover that I was wrong, then I just wasted my time; but if someone doesn't believe and then they discover they were wrong, well they just wasted their life."

Well said, Frank, well said.

The genes are important...very important.

As to aging well, I have rarely seen examples of aging well. My son-in-law's grandfather lived to be almost 101 years of age and he was sharp as a tack and looked to be in his 60's when he passed. There was some dissolution in his life but the genes were there. Pioneer stock.

I believe you mentioned something about "limpness" so I expect that you have slowed down a bit with the dissolution.

I don't remember mentioning "limpness"...but I do know that I've gotten lots stronger. When I was younger, I could not have bent my erect penis using a lever. Now I can easily do it using just my hand.

I am glad about the genes, though. And yes, I don't do much chasing these days. First of all my wife would bend my head...and secondly, there is the danger that I might catch what I am chasing and be unable to complete the mission...so to speak.

So it either Trumps way or no way?

It seems incredible that some of these people feel that way.

Oh, well.

You are going to have a hard time even finding enough republican senators to pass anything that Trump wants.

Exactly!

I wish Mitch McConnell had gotten the clean CR passed. He could have done it...and almost certainly will have to do a variation of a clean CR at some point. And then he will have to lead the Senate to over-ride the veto, if it comes.

I can’t add much to that exceot to say that I have nightmares, occasionally, about what is down the road...hopefully far down the road, for all men.

There are brave souls out on the course now but it’s a bit too cool for me. It’s 44 degrees and golf isn’t fun when you are shivering.

Have a good day up there in Iceland.

Its gonna happen, honey bunny, but not under trumps terms. His approval number are falling, republicans in congress are begging him to end this, the economy id feeling the effects and 70% of Americans are against the wall. No it will never be done Trumps way. He has met his match in Nancy Pelosi.
