Random Thursday Morning Thoughts




I'm not a Star Wars fan so I didn't remember the hubbub surrounding the release of The Force Awakens, a sequel to 1983's  Return of the Jedi.


  • Australian police may (or may not) have just stopped another attack at Bondi Beach. It just happened so I don't know if this is legit or not. 



  • In the search for the Brown University shooting, police released a photo of a witness in effort to identify him.  "All we know is that this person was in the vicinity of the person of interest, and we want to speak with him." That seem kind of reckless and dangerous to plaster that guy's picture everywhere. 

  • I would run, not walk, away. 


  • Just a few years ago, you couldn't conceive of this headline ever being written. 
  • Trump quick hits.
    • He decided to yell at us for 18 minute last night. 


    • He's a child.

       

    • "President Trump on Tuesday received and discussed a draft copy of a book by lawyer Alan Dershowitz that studies whether Trump could constitutionally serve a third term as commander in chief . . . . "

  • The Real Estate Second™. This is a routine feature of the New York Times which is normally focuses on property hunting in and around New York. But today the wrote about a Dallas family deciding between three different homes. You get to vote on what you would chose and what they actually chose.  Gift link

  • Sports quick hits:
    • Quality comedy from last night on Twitter: 

    • It's Quinn Ewers time, baby!!!
