Breaking: Rolling Stone -- link here -- no sympathy in this corner --
Unimportant, but for the archives. Closes out the week:
What a great country. Unlikely faux environmentalists will slow this down.
Meanwhile, in the Dallas-Ft Worth area a huge expansion at DFW an a new airport north of the city:
Wiki:
Expansion: from my perspective, and I'm very biased, the DFW airport -- considering it's the second busiest / biggest airport in the world -- is an incredibly efficient and pleasant airport.
It also has light rail -- which will please faux environmentalists -- connecting the airport, Dallas and Ft Worth.
The airport has always had plans for six terminals, cleverly called Terminals A - F. But Terminal F was never built ... until now.
Construction on a brand new Terminal F began this past summer (2023). My hunch: terminal F will be bigger than 99% of all publicly accessible airports in the US. In the US there are 5,170 airports open to the general public and 503 of them serve commercial flights. Fact check.

ReplyDeleteAs I told my sister-in-law just yesterday: All our grandparents left Ukraine in the early 1900's. Can you begin to imagine what our lives would be like today if they hadn't? Count your blessings, eh!
You have no idea how often I think about things like that. My attitude about a lot of things has changed over the last 20 years, often reflected in the tenor / tone of my notes on the blog.
DeleteTruth, suggested to a family member....
ReplyDelete"Still and all... How Lucky have we been!! Count your Blessings, there is a whole world of misery out there that would relish the opportunities we have been fortunate enough to have enjoyed. If Life is not fair? Well, if either your grandparents or mine had not left the Ukraine???? Food for thought, eh?"
Agree completely. Much could be said.
DeleteI truly hope you took the time to read the Oregonian article. Few things move me; lots of people give to charities (altruistically, and sometimes not.) This simple gift to a dying man was a reward for a life well-lived. Paying it forward with a scholarship is perhaps the most honorable and modest way imaginable to honor this fine man.
DeleteThus sayeth the Grouch~
I did read it.
DeleteThank you for your patience / persistence with regard to reaching me. When I lost access to my "original" Yahoo e-mail account, a lot changed. I'm pretty much off the grid except for the blog. Whatever. I will get to all your notes. Thank you.
