CLR's Springfield FIU Wells In Brooklyn Oil Field Have Been Completed And Have Begun Production -- July 2, 2022

Later: a reader asked whether small mom-and-pop mineral owners participate in FIU (federal) wells or if royalties only extend to federal government. That was an interesting question. They've written CLR but have received no answer. Maybe a reader knows. I certainly don't. First time this has come up.

Original Post

This should be exciting for a number of small mom-and-pop mineral owners.

The Movie Page

Wow, I did not know this. 

Costumes, Funny Face, 1957: Edith Head.

Wow. 

The movie is all about fashion, and the producer / director chose .... Ms Edith Head

The personalities associated with this movie -- simply amazing. But Ms Edith Head seems, to me, to be at the top of the list. And the list includes Audrey Hepburn.

I'm not sure if I've ever watched this movie or even parts of it, but now that I'm seeing what I'm seeing on TCM, I am blown away by the movie. The fashion really is extraordinary. 

Edith Head, born 1897, and died, 1981.

Making America Great Again -- In Fifteen Years -- July 2, 2022

Amtrak.

Link here.


By 2035, Amtrak plans to add train service between Detroit and Toronto with a 4:46 travel time. In China, this would take about an hour. To wait 15 years for a train that's almost 4 hours longer than our geopolitical competition is regressive.

No, not regressive. Criminal.

#1 for eighth year in a row

No political agenda. 

Simply great sandwiches. 

And great service. 

With a smile. 

I haven't been to a fast food restaurant "in ages." Prices are approaching what I used to pay for a four-star experience in San Diego.
