Sun-Maid Raisins -- That Small Red Box -- March 29, 2026

Locator: 50365RAISINS. 

For as long as I've been alive, I remember the small Sun-Maid "California Sun-Dried Raisins." 

Years ago I remember when opening those boxes they were filled to the top and even seemed that to close the box, the manufacturer had to "squish" the raisins farther down.

Now, the boxes are literally half-full.

The content is measured in weight; currently the weight is one-ounce.

AI prompt: Sun-Maid sells raisons in small boxes, now weighing one ounce. Have they always been one-ounce boxes?

UConn -- WTI -- Africa -- March 29, 2026

Locator: 50364ARCHIVES. 

UConn stuns Duke:

This barely begins to tell the story: 

Ticker CVX: tea leaves suggest it's gonna be a lot more tomorrow -- 

The bigger story here: has the Middle East just "eaten itself"? This is a huge story. Since 1979, the GCC tried getting along with Iran, and several US presidents kicked the can down the road, often with huge monetary payoffs to Iran -- link here. Trump continues to play 5D chess.

******************************
Back to the Real World 

Project EPIC Fury, Day 30, March 29, 2026:
  • Tehran significantly ramps up attacks on UAE and Kuwait.
    • some might suggest this is an act of desperation on Iran's part
      • Iran's only American targets are the "Arab states" --  
      • without these targets, Iran wouldn't have much
      • Israel's "Golden Dome" -- Kuwait, UAE, Saudi are all going to wish they had the same 
  • interestingly, after an American AWACS E-3 Sentry destroyed by Tehran -- a high-value asset that cannot be quickly or easily replaced -- Netanyahu is offering to base high-value US assets in Israel.
    • at the end of the day, this was probably an ill-advised move on Iran's part 
  • no information on what US ground troops are doing or where they are located -- I'm sure one can find some information if willing to spend some time -- I'm not interested
  • getting his ducks in order: Kharg Island. 
    • I think Trump is willing to remain in the Mideast to the end of his presidency. 

**************************
The Opposition Party Agrees: Trump Is NOT A King And Never Has Been

Wow!

Even Trump supporters can agree with that. Trump is not a king. LOL. 

Most humorous: protests in London calling for no more kings, where there actually is a king! LOL. My hunch: the Royal Family is not pleased. LOL.

Air Fares Going Up Due To Iran War? March 29, 2026

Locator: 50361AIRFARE. 

I visited our grandsons in Portland, Oregon, earlier this month -- the trip was very expensive -- but it was due to spring break. DFW to PDX -- PDX is my favorite airport in the world. 

I have booked my next trip -- same trip -- for high season, July, summer, 2026 -- just a few months from now. I was pleasantly surprised. The trip is as inexpensive as ever. Probably the same that I paid last year. To pay for the seat I want has doubled in price since last summer but that's fine. It's well worth it, having the seat one wants, although I will give it up if a family needs to sit together. Pay it forward.
