Observed today ...........

A quiet Thursday afternoon here in Newark, Ohio, cloudy and a little chilly outside, BUT .... it is now Spring. NCAA Tournament starts today, watching Dayton and OSU. Big brother playing little brother, outcome on the scoreboard shows it is close, but, OSU will prevail.

The airplane, the lost airplane, someone has found some sort of debris, somewhere, they hope. I still can see no point in the scenario working out that way. Nothing accomplished by anyone for any reason, I stick to my plot. Landed somewhere, time will tell. It seems like terrorists always wanted to make a statement of some sort, there is none here, makes no sense.

Obama is going to spend some time in Florida and his wife is going to China, that's a lot of millions down the drain. I have to wonder though, when Obama speaks, as the president, are any of these foreign countries really concerned. I don't think WE are who HE thinks we are, anymore. In the past, that was true, but no more, we have lost that prestige, we are not the "world leader" like we used to be. They will never convince barack of that. I think Putin is laughing at him, "He said what, he's going to do what, and he thinks .... that ... scares me, arrogant "ublyudok," isn't he?"
