Seeing a Total Eclipse of the Sun

Solar eclipse is hitting the Western part of the US today.  Lucky.

I would love to "blow my winnings in Nova Scotia seeing a total eclipse of the sun."

 

NEVER AGAIN!

 If you ever had any question about what the WOKE Movement was all about.... the answer is clear now.

These Leftist sycophants are the successors to the BoxCar operators as they support Hamas Terrorism and the extermination of the Jews.  

It is so disheartening to see support for the barbaric acts killing babies, raping women, and the Hamas chants to "Gas the Jews".

Wokeness up until now has been disguised as Liberal openmindedness about stuff like exposing kids to Drag Queens and other obnoxious stuff.  But now the true face of these haters and bigots have shown forth as Woke Assholes embrace the ethnic cleansing of Jewish people.

Stand up against this phoney totalitarian sickening WOKE culture.

NEVER AGAIN!!!!!

I stand with Israel.

No Answers....

 We look at the atrocities in Israel and wonder why....

Why are women raped and murdered?

Why are babies decapitated?

Why are innocents burned alive?

Actually, the answer is quite simple.  The barbarians committing these heinous acts are highly religious.  They scream "All Glory to God" when they brutally murder innocent people.

Throughout history, the greatest atrocities have been committed by those who think that they are on the side of God... therefore their actions are completely justified.  Religious zealots slaughter others because they fervently believe that God wants them to do it.

So Catholics in the Spanish Inquisition burned people to death.

And Muslims today fly aircraft into the Twin Towers and cut off the heads of Israeli babies.... while the Mullahs of Iran shout encouragement and give aid.

I don't have answers.....

A Strong and Uncompromised Leader

 In this tense period, the US needs leadership more than ever.

Reps Steve Scalise and Jim Jordan are the leading candidates for the Speaker of the House job vacated by ousted Speaker Kevin McCarthy.

Either candidate would be a vast improvement over the twisted Nancy Pelosi.  To the MOAM, this issue is not the choice between these two, but the speed in which the Speaker's job can be filled.

The turmoil in the Middle East and Ukraine illustrates the need for strong leadership in the world.  We can't let a compromised corrupt pol like Joe Biden stand as the face of the most powerful nation in the world.  One of these guys would become third in line for the Presidency, and in the case of Biden and his useless VP, Kamala Harris, this position becomes critical.

This is the best we can do to lead the world.... until a strong, uncompromised President is elected as our Leader.  In the meantime, the sick and demented scumbags of the world from Iran and Putin's dictatorship feel free to spread havoc in an uncertain world.

Nature View DENIED!

 So on the MOAM bike ride this morning.... I decided to pedal by Echo Lake in North Conway to experience a little solitude next the Pond.... Thoreau style.

No can do.

The parking lot was full and a Park Ranger was guarding the entrance to the pond site.  I asked him if I could just ride my bike down and look at the Pond.  That was a negatory.  Actually no... I could do it for $4 Dollars.  But I didn't bring my wallet.

So.... "No Nature for YOU!" 

 The guy really wasn't like the Soup Nazi in Seinfeld, because he cracked a smile as I turned my bike around.

Saw some other stuff though so the ride was still worth it.

Disaster De Jour

 So here we go again with the Biden Foreign policy Disaster De Jour.

That means disaster of the day for those of you who are not as sophisticated as the MOAM.

Anyway.....

Biden gives Billions of Dollars to Iran.... under the caveat that it can only be used for peaceful purposes.  (The sheep will believe anything, but that's something for later.)\

A short time later, Hamas sends rockets into Israel killing at least 300 people.

Iran issues a statement praising the terrorist action of Hamas.\

Do you think this is related to the demented and inept state of our Presidency these days?  It is staring you right in the fre
aking face.

Remember when Iran imprisoned our entire diplomatic Iranian presence while Carter was President?  And the day that Reagan was elected they were released????

That's why a strong President is important.

You may hate Trump.  He may scare the crap out of you.  But nobody dared to pull this Bullshit when he was the Prez.

With Biden, it is a phucking free of all.

A Sad and Bloody Irony

 More Bloodshed in the Middle East.

Why is it that this center of religion.... Islam, Christian, Judaism.... is always lacking peace and understanding????

Shouldn't the place where God has revealed himself to mankind  be filled with love and human fulfillment?  

Points to ponder.

Preserve the Green

 Morning Bike Ride.

The foliage is ready to pop in NH.  Soon these green trees will be covered in orange and red.  It's the MOAM duty to preserve the green.

Breaking Down My PowerBall Winnings

 So the PowerBall drawing is set for Saturday night and is up to $1.40 Billion.

Seems like a lot of money, and it is.... but the MOAM needs to break this down for the Peeps.

First, the $1.40 Billion only applies if you agree to let the Goverment dole it out to you in increments over 30 years.  Do you trust the State to keep its promise and deliver this payment to you????  Me Neither.....

Second, if you opt for the lump sum, it is $643.7 million.  Seems strange that the Government discounts your winnings by over $700 million just because you decide to take it immediately, doesn't it?   So the original figure of $1.4 Billion is really deceptive.

Third, the Federal and most State Governments skim taxes off of the top.... about 40% of the lump sum.  In this case, you would be handing the politicians and bureaucrats $257.5 million.  WTF For???  Why do they deserve this money??? What the hell did they do to earn it?  Anyway.....

So you are left with $386.2 Million.  Most people just say "Stop complaining you idiot".  But that's not the point.  They say you won $1.4 Billion, but you actually recieve a BILLION less than that...... and nobody questions it.  We are a herd of freaking sheep... aren't we?

Anyway.... that leaves you with $386 million to deal with.  All of your friends and family will treat you way differently.  Most will hate you, a few will be happy for you, but you will rarely be able to see which is which.

You'll have to hire security, because the criminals and con artists will have you squarely in their sites.  You will really have to go underground for a while until you construct an environment that is suitable to emerge into.  And you better lawyer up for all the false charges and crap that will flow your way.  

But if you can manage the Bullshit, a whole new world will be available.... restricted only by your intelligence and imagination.

The MOAM would take that money, set up some trusts and stuff for loved ones.... even if they don't love him anymore.  Then he would invest the money into real estate.  Housing for low and moderate income people for the most part.  I would make sure that the ownership entities obscured the ability for people to know who they are renting from, and I would have a cadre of remodeling and maintenance workers gainfully employed on a permanent basis to take care and improve the properties that we acquire and rent out.  No investing in stocks and funds.... just purchase of existing neighborhood housing to make it nicely maintained and available at a reasonable rent.  I firgure that I should be able to accumulate about 500 units or so of existing one, two, and three family structures. and continually maintain and improve them.

Plus, there would be plenty left over for me to buy new houses, cars, take trips and other stuff. 

That's what the MOAM would do.

How about you?   What would you do?
