The book has been added to my Autumn, 2022, reading list.
- Mrs Paine's Garage and the Murder of John F. Kennedy, Thomas Mallon, c. 2002.
Ruth Paine's testimony at the Warren Commission was by far the longest text by any witness.
Ruth Hyde Paine (born September 3, 1932) was a friend of Marina Oswald, who was living with her at the time of the JFK assassination. According to four government investigations, Lee Harvey Oswald stored the 6.5 mm caliber Carcano rifle that he used to assassinate U.S. President John F. Kennedy in Ruth Paine's garage, unbeknownst to her and her husband, Michael Paine.
Ruth Paine answered more than 5,000 questions for the Warren Commission.
There were over 500 witnesses for the Warren Commission, and the average number of questions asked for each witness was less than 300.
Furthermore, Ruth Paine has given more interviews than any other Warren Commission witness, always consistent with her Warren Commission testimony.

Legacy
Upon completing the book, another reminder -- the only thing we leave when we leave this world is our legacy.
That's why I have a 30-year horizon when investing with a focus on dividends.

Shareholders As Owners
One of the "things" that makes investing so much fun is waking up and finding that one of the companies of which you are part owner has continued to grow: through an acquisition or by investing in a new venture.
Today, link here. I have a very, very small position in TotalEnegies. This was by Charles Kennedy, the best contributor over at oilprice.com. If Charles Kennedy writes about it, it's an important story.
