I am taking the time today to address the question of why ICE is going to only certain cities. Take a look at the map above, it shows you where ICE and Border Patrol can “Lawfully” work. And now compare it to the map of Party affiliation (by county) below:…

Some Thoughts on AI
First, an explanation of why I’m using Robbie the Robot in a post about AI, it is quite simple, this was the first time I was exposed to the idea of AI (an intelligent robot). Just to give you an idea of just how long we have been thinking about…
Trump, MAGA, and Logic
As you all know, I “Love” logic (Programmer/Software Engineer). What some of you may not be aware of is I am a great Fan of Louis Carroll. This is mostly because I love logical nonsense. By logical nonsense is all of the reasoning is logical but the results are total…
Ice has come to MacArthur Park
I usually try to wait a few days when something like this happens but this needs to be dealt with NOW. With all of the flooding in Texas the need for every State’s National Guard is, or should be, obvious. That the President is wasting time, money and effort on…
Why “Do Process” is Important

“When I use a word,’ Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, ‘it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.’ ’The question is,’ said Alice, ‘whether you can make words mean so many different things.’ ’The question is,’ said Humpty Dumpty, ‘which is…
Hollywood History in Mythology
