The Uncertainty Principle: Captain's log: alot of shit on the ship is broken, and, nobody likes me.

I deal with the issues of aging, getting sick and/or eventually dying,

very simply.

I don't think about them at all.

Thinking on these issues can only prevent me

from being in the moment and enjoying the now.

Thinking on these issues at my age can accomplish nothing...

No matter which outcome one imagines or believes will happen----
Won't.

Life specifically saves it's real surprises for as long as possible.

Why ruin a currently beautiful thing by thinking too much?

Good talk Rusty---

The George Orwell was absolutely correct,

Ministry of Truth edition.
Truth are lies, lies are truth...

(George Orwell's 1984)

All those right wing, fundamentalist Republican politicians
who loudly supported freeing that Christian, gay-hating Kentucky clerk from jail;

Of course they all
support indefinite Gitmo detention for any different variety of religious wacko?

A billionaire running for President claims he is doing it for the little guy?

Ask him for a lift and see what happens?

This turd, Cruz

(of course another wack job Republican Presidential candidate)

has closed down the Federal Government--once already--

but:

He and his Pro-Life raving followers want to close the Federal Government

down for a second time

Because they are soooo Pro-Life...

Cruz is so Pro-Life he wants to carpet bomb Iranian at the slightest provocation?

Just cause they are Iranians you know?

Pro-Life...right?

Just so you don't think i only focus on Republican lies are truth.

It's just hard to believe that someone could be the Secretary of State

and not be able to comprehend the term "wipe your server"?

What a douche..she obviously believes the little people are stupid thugs.

A Clinton would know preciously what destroying evidence means.

The Clintons destroy evidence with the same frequency

that the rest of us pump gasoline.

We are hooked on another Netflix streaming PBS mystery...

It's very comforting watching these civilized shows..
Their writing is excellent--and you can read, or do anything
while watching or listening to it...
Poirot is very visual
filled with1930's British styling---

The Art Deco sets and backgrounds the show uses are alone worth watching the show.

I installed a chess app on my IPAD recently.
My first impressions are nice graphics,combined with an aggressive AI.

I think I will enjoy the play.
It is nice to have the IPAD's portability to play easily anywhere.
Supposedly you can play in real time against another human
on their IPAD no matter where the two of you are located?
I may never have the opportunity to take advantage of this
feature but it is interesting to have this remote play possibility available.

My favorite all time jacket/coat is the English Barbour.
wax cotton jacket.

The Barbour jacket is perfect for varying weather conditions
and has been worn by every British human,
including the Queen.

Barbour jackets cross all ages with style.

Barbour USA
I have two of the Barbour, Beaufort model, wax cotton field coats.
One has already provided 20 years of service and will probably last forever.

Barbour's do wear down, but the company offers repair and
restoration services for extremely reasonable prices.
The company's repair-service department will pretty much
rebuild your jacket for you if you wish.
If this jacket is so great, you may ask,
why isn't everyone at the checkout line wearing one?
Barbour Jackets are incredibly fucking expensive.
They are a purchase for a lifetime and priced accordingly.
My Barbour jackets are one of my very few appreciating investments....

A Barbour holy grail jacket to obtain in my mind
was the T539 International Jacket in black.

This particular Barbour model jacket was Steve McQueen's favorite as well..

Today I received a T539 jacket in my size and color

I found my new jacket---used, in excellent condition, on Ebay (of course)
for less than 1/4 of the original price.

My bargain basement Barbour is missing the issued belt but
i have already emailed Barbour requesting information
on purchasing a replacement.

The T539 brand new, when stocked, was just financially non-justifiable for me.
I was dumb-founded to find exactly what i desired for pennies on the dollar.
