   Wife snores as badly as I do, but gets mad if I even suggest it is possible… she made me try all kinds of things to stop snoring, including an expensive CPAP machine (which does work), but is uninterested in trying those things herself… the other day she admitted that she woke herself up with her own snoring – only realized it must be her when she noticed I wasn’t there (I was on a business trip)…

   It appears that there must be something really bad in that report…

   Some of baseball’s problems are due to that, but also people got turned off by all of the overblown salaries and strikes… as well as the constant turnover of team members…

   Well… a few Americans understand marketing – the ones who market for the well-known sports and companies. The rest, not so much…

   I keep running into bad marketers at the local level. Even in well-known sports (such as local auto racing tracks vs. NASCAR). They don’t want to spend money on marketing, so they try to use free sources (like social media) instead. They don’t realize that those free sources yield few customers – usually they’re preaching to the same small crowd… meanwhile, the general public doesn’t know they even exist because no messages get out to them and because one has to seek connections on social media (you’re not going to know what or who to seek, so you won’t find them).

   LOL, my Dad is like that. After hearing stories about people claiming that their 2020 ballots got changed – right in front of their eyes – from Trump to Biden, he now recites a story about how it happened to him, too. Talks about voting machine functions that did not exist. And he firmly stands by his story, even though we all know that in 2020 he voted by mail…

   For some people, Goebbels was right…

    Even the President Elect is echoing his opponent and calling for unity… but his supporters hate their fellow citizens so much they deny that and try to bully instead…
