    Texas State Attorney General Paxton Impeached

    You know Phelan better than I do as I do not live in Texas and I never heard of him until he showed up in the impeachment news. If he is a leftist Democrat masquerading as a Republican as you suggest, two things come to mind. First, are there no leftist Republicans in your definition of...

    Texas State Attorney General Paxton Impeached

    I guess whether or not Phelan is a Republican depends on your definition of Republican. To me, when state law says you are a Republican if you choose Republican as your party affiliation when you register to vote, you are a Republican. Further evidence that you are a Republican is provided when...

    Texas State Attorney General Paxton Impeached

    I know I said I'd stay off EO for 3 months in the interests of focusing more on my work. But this news is so remarkable that I felt compelled to comment. This afternoon, the Texas state House of Representatives, controlled by a strong majority of Republicans, impeached Texas State AG Paxton, a...

    How Much Does a Shower Cost?

    It's been a while since my wife and I worked on the road as expediters. What is the going rate for a truck stop shower these days? If I drove in and wanted to buy a shower with no fuel purchase or points, what's the price?

    Time Out Once again, I find myself having too much fun on EO at the expense of more important tasks at work. It's time for a break. I'll be off EO for the next 3 months or more.

    Gaining Footholds: Solar and Wind Power; Electric Vechicles

    I would like to see that change. Nuclear is not the answer, but it is part of it. The sooner new nuclear plants are allowed the better. Since 2020, five new nuclear plants have opened in countries other than the US. In contrast, strong public sentiment that grew stronger over the years led...

    Gaining Footholds: Solar and Wind Power; Electric Vechicles

    There is something else to be aware of regarding this topic. That's not just the changes coming soon, but also the increased speed at which new breakthroughs will come. Electricity and the first computer chips made computers possible. Landline and cable networks combined with computers to make...

    Gaining Footholds: Solar and Wind Power; Electric Vechicles

    Are they producing no electricity? If they are producing it, where does it go? Someone benefits from it do they not? Not being fussy about having the latest and greatest, I generally get my phones for free. When electricity, the telephone, the automobile, television, etc. were gaining their...

    Gaining Footholds: Solar and Wind Power; Electric Vechicles

    That is partially true, but I've driven through some major-huge wind farms in Texas that are doing the job now. This is a post about footholds. It's not about what isn't being done now. It's about the clear path we're on to tapping into the free energy that comes from the sources you list. You...

    Gaining Footholds: Solar and Wind Power; Electric Vechicles

    Open your eyes, my friend. Free energy is all around us. I use it to charge my cell phone in the woods. It's used with our neighbor's outdoor security lights. It powers electronic road signs truckers often see. Think of what we used to pay for but now don't because technology made it free. Free...

    Gaining Footholds: Solar and Wind Power; Electric Vechicles

    While it is difficult to conceive if you have not thought it through, it is possible that the world will enjoy free energy in the not too distant future. At my age, I may not see it in my lifetime, but I believe it's coming. The significant foothold mentioned above gives me great confidence in a...

    Gaining Footholds: Solar and Wind Power; Electric Vechicles

    Wind and solar energy combined to generate 13.6% of utility-scale electricity last year. Sales of all-electric vehicles rose to 5.8% of the total 13.8 million vehicles Americans purchased in 2022, up from 3.2% in 2021 Source

    The Trump Card...

    You are using a term I have not heard before. What is "lawfare?"

    The Trump Card...

    That may be, which only reinforces my point. The only way for DeSantis to knock Trump off his perch will be to treat Trump like Trump has treated DeSantis. I may be wrong about DeSantis. He may continue to bend over and take it from Trump. We'll find out after he officially declares. My guess is...

    Death by DeSantis

    That can be done. How much more are you willing to pay for your food to help make this happen? How much do wages and benefits need to increase to get US citizens doing backbreaking work in the hot Florida sun and fields?

    The Trump Card...

    That's not the point of my post. DeSantis made an unscheduled stop in Des Moines to mock Trump's excuse. It does not matter if Trump's excuse was valid or invalid. DeSantis seized an opportunity to mock Trump. DeSantis is starting to show some teeth. If he declares his candidacy, as he is...

    The Trump Card...

    I know you believe that. I don't. I have more faith in the justice system than you do. Lately, Trump has lost in blue zip codes. And he has lost when his cases are appealed and heard directly buy judges nominated by Trump himself. When you see that happening, it compels a reasonable person to...

    DeSantis made an unscheduled stop in Des Moines to draw attention to Trump's lame excuse.

    The Trump Card...

    Either way, Trump lost. He has lawyers up the wazoo and unlimited resources with which to defend himself and he mounted no defense, and he lost.
