SpaceX: speaking of Tesla, I read somewhere that SpaceX won't be launching space-tourists in 2019; original plans have been delayed. I assume the link is easy to find.
Valero: Mike Fitzsimmons has an update on Valero over at SeekingAlpha. Brent-to-WTI discount at $11. US refiners with excellent marine access to the Gulf of Mexico will be in the catbird seat. One of those is Valero, which has a current export capacity of 462,000 bpd.
Facebook: is "slow-rolling" one word, two words, or a hyphenated word? Just wondering.
Study linked over at the Drudge Report: too much bad news can make one sick. This explains the crude/foul language being used by late night talk shows. For the alt-left, there has been nothing but bad news for the past two years.
His movie: Bill Clinton insists he doesn't owe Monica Lewinsky an apology for hijacking her life by taking advantage of her while president – and says HE'S a victim because he left the White House deeply in debt. Speaking of bad news: Bill Clinton left the White House with Hillary. Now, that's a real downer. But since leaving the White House, Bill's fortunes have turned -- in 2017 it was estimated his net worth was $70 million. Hillary? From TownAndCountry magazine:
Since Clinton herself said she and her husband left the White House "dead broke," what they've made since then provides a good idea of their net worth today.
Wealth-X estimates Hillary Clinton's net worth to be at least $18 million, and her federal financial disclosure filing in 2015 showed that she had between $11.3 million and $52.7 million in the bank.
Not so bad considering she's said she and her husband were $12 million in debt at the end of his presidential administration in 2001.
Comment: And their only work as far as I know: speeches and books.Melania: apparently Melania is "in hiding." I don't blame her. I hope she has the common sense to drop out of sight for five more years, at least. Will drive the pundits and paparazzi nuts.
Homeless shelter: in the homeless shelter, despite the heavy downpour of rain this morning, there are only six of us. On the other hand, the drive-through is non-stop and the app-ordering-walk-in-pick-up (AOWIPU) crowd is one heavy stream. In fact it almost looks like a rivulet of drug addicts. The bathrooms, for the most part, remain unoccupied.
