Uh-oh. The Israeli trolls are stirring on drudge.com.

Watch them stalk and menace people online.

You'll see.

Many, many pacifists are combat veterans.

The late crooner Tony Bennett was at D-Day.

The global economy has fallen apart, the US is in the hock for over a trillion dollars, Americans are selling their own blood to make ends meet, US sailors have jumped overboard in despair, NATO forces have surrounded Kalinigrad, Trumpf Diarrhea Syndrome (TDS) and measles are spreading across Amerikkka, the USIC was unaware of a Russian missile test in the Antarctic, the SPR is being drained, strategic ammunition stores have been depleted, Iran is going to turn the heat up on US forces in the Middle East, and the Senile Satan boasts "he's very good at flagpoles."

The voter who put this destructive, draft-dodging pedophilic Russian asset into the White House on Tuesday 5 Nov 2024.

About whom dost thou refer to about "raison d'etre" or "metier"? Danforth the CPA or Coriolanus, the poor kitty struggling with a MS XP PC?

General Electric (GE): Once provided extensive pensions and secure middle-class career stability, but later closed and froze its traditional plans to cut legacy costs.

Pronounced "Ee hahm-dee nas ill" meaning "and how!"

A relative of mine swore by General Electric his whole life. A EEE engineer with patents to his name, my relation was assigned to China in the late 1970s or early 1980s because he was a fluent Mandarin speaker.

GE made him re-invest portions of his salary back into GE -- no diversification -- and he adored GE CEO "Neutron" Jack Welch.

Turns out Jack Welch was in the same league as arch-goniffs Charles Ponzi, Bernie Madoff, and Armand Hammer when it came to "cooking the books."

After the GE fallout, my relation's pension became a mere pittance and he bitterly used the word "disaster."

And one of my friends -- a topshelf attorney -- was one of the folks dissecting GE and he related horror stories to me without detail to avoid attorney-client privilege,

My once successful, Rolex-wearing, First and Business Class flights only relative, died unhappy and bitter.

Thanks, GE!

No one should dispute Danforth in terms of mathematics, actuarial statistics, tax codes, and basic number crunching.

That is his metier.

AIPAC pod-people are like the alien invasive species in The Invasion of the Body Snatchers (book by Jack Finney 1955; films 1956, 1978, and 1993).

"Jew hater!"

Under a different pseudonym I submitted several manuscripts to Alfred Hitchcock Murder Mysteries, Ellery Queen Mysteries, and others.

My friends and colleagues proofread them for me and thought they were excellent. One is a retired professor and Chess Master (not a Grandmaster, but one level below). The others were book afficionados or bridge players -- no TV heads.

The editors threatened that if AI was used to write the material, those authors would be permanently banned.

I, a reader of Shakespeare, Agatha Christie, Damon Runyan, P.G. Wodehouse, G.K. Chesterton, John Steinbeck etc, obviously wouldn't need AI to write anything, as someone on drudge.com once idiotically accused me of.

"Ba-bye!" to that guy. That's another story.

Anyway, none of my manuscripts were published -- and some of them were stories with my cloned version of Columbo, only changing his name to avoid copyright problems, but with all of his idiosyncracies, sloppy appearance, awkward mannerisms, and genius crime-solving techniques.

No AI whatsoever.

I even informed the editors that I would donate the humble proceeds to animal shelters in Connecticut or elsewhere as I am retired and don't need the geld.

Zilch.

So, I self-published and my friends, family, and bridge circle got to enjoy my non-AI creative juices.
