Global stocks plunge as UK votes for Brexit

‘EU is failing, EU is dying’: Nigel Farage speech following Brexit vote

Scotland should ‘never leave EU’ – calls for new independence vote grow

It’s interesting that the car That Makes Sense – economically and functionally – gets almost no press while cars that don’t (like the Tesla and other electric cars) do. Elio Motors (company website here) had a near-production-ready car on display at the New York Auto Show last week. Company founder Paul Elio gave a presentation to reporters and took questions. Bet you didn’t hear a thing about it. This is downright Weird. You’d think the media would be champing at the bit to let the public know that there is a car on the verge of production (with 41,000 of … Continue reading →

Entertainment doesn’t come much richer than elderly politicians fattened on our taxes and their own self-importance creakily collapsing to the floor of the House of Representatives. Oh, the awkwardness and obvious discomfort! And yet, viva la 1960s! Only tie-dye and love beads are missing as these Congressional cretins vie once again to repeal the Second Amendment without the bother of actually doing so. Supposedly, they’re literally “on the House floor with @repjohnlewis & Dems staging a sit-in to demand action on common-sense gun legislation,” as “Rep. John Yarmuth (@RepJohnYarmuth) June 22, 2016” put it in “social media’s” fractured syntax. I … Continue reading →

I have had a lot of people ask me in the past couple of years if buying a loaner car is a good idea.  We have seen many dealers recently ramp up their loaner fleets, and there are a number of reasons why. First, automakers have recalled millions of cars over the past couple of years, and they know to get people in to make those repairs, they must provide them with a loaner, especially if the recall is of the serious nature that can cause bodily harm.  The automakers cannot force a dealership to offer loan cars, so they … Continue reading →

The betting sites were wrong. The polls were wrong. The politicians were wrong. The last YouGov poll was 52 to 48 “remain” hours before the voting ceased. The vote went the other way: 52-48. The law of large numbers was wrong: polls and betting. So were the capital markets. The Dow was up 230 on June 23: 18,011. The S&P 500 was up 28: 2113. The pound was up 1%. Soon after the first numbers came in, the pound fell 4%. That is a huge drop. Then it fell another seven percent. Nigel Farage had conceded defeat before the voting … Continue reading →

In response to the Orlando nightclub mass shooting, the U.S. House Democrats are making fools of themselves in their sit-in filibuster, as they display their childishness and ignorance on the gun control issue. Their purely emotional calls for more gun control and denying guns to people whose names are placed on a no-fly list or a terrorist watch list without due process are thoroughly lacking in rational thought. But I’m more disappointed in the news media who are covering the pro-gun control crowd’s emotional arguments, but not covering any actual intellectual, historical and empirical arguments against gun control. For example, … Continue reading →

As a teenager, flip flops were a staple for me in the summer. I would go through a pair or two each season. But as I got older,  I stopped wearing flip flops. Why? Well, for starters, I realized that men have really ugly feet and that most people probably don’t want to see my ugly man toes all the time. Additionally, flip flops just became too casual and adolescent for my maturing style sensibilities. As I started to dress more “grown-up,” flip flops didn’t seem to fit in anymore. Now I only wear them when I’m going to the … Continue reading →

Ok, so I see this big hoopla (deeply flavored with just a hint of rare hoo-ha) about this woman who saw her kid standing on the toilet and the kid tells her she learned it at school. No, it wasn’t some nifty new personal hygiene technique, it was a lesson in hiding from a mass shooting event. Because if you stand on the toilet, the shooter can’t look under the stall door and see your legs, right? Well, except now anyway, since the concerned mom has revealed this escape-and-evasion tactic for tots to the entire world. The mom is outraged … Continue reading →

Stripped of its excesses, Donald Trump’s Wednesday speech contains all the ingredients of a campaign that can defeat Hillary Clinton this fall. Indeed, after the speech ended Clinton was suddenly defending the Clinton Foundation against the charge that it is a front for a racket for her family’s enrichment. The specific charges in Trump’s indictment of Clinton: She is mendacious, corrupt, incompetent and a hypocrite. “Hillary Clinton … is a world-class liar,” said Trump. She faked a story about being under fire at a Bosnia airport, the kind of claim for which TV anchors get fired. She has lied repeatedly … Continue reading →

If you reside on the west coast, you are living on borrowed time.  As you will see below, stress has been building up along the San Andreas fault for more than a century, and scientists tell us that southern California is way overdue for a major earthquake.  When that stress is finally released, the U.S. Geological Survey says that we could be looking at hundreds of billions of dollars in damage.  If you follow my work regularly, then you already know that there has been unusual shaking all along the “Ring of Fire” so far in 2016.  But thankfully the … Continue reading →

You may love that fancy French armchair in your sitting room, but are you even pronouncing it correctly? It turns out that while you’ve been bragging to your friends about your newly installed pergola in the garden, they’ve been sniggering about your mispronunciation of the word. Did you know that pergola, while pronounced by many as PER-GUH-LAH, should actually be said as PER-GOL-AR. While chaise lounge should be pronounced as SHEZ-LAWNG not SHAZ-LONG-UEE, according to Stuff.co.nz. Dr. Ariel Goldberg, assistant professor of psychology and director university’s psycholinguistics and Linguistics Lab at Tufts University in Massachusetts said mispronouncing words relates to how we read words. … Continue reading →
