"That's all Folks"


This week we are joined by Nick and Ashok, our 2 most regular guests.
There won't be much blurb because.....if you've been paying attention you'll know we're taking a hiatus. If you haven't been paying attention, well, we're taking a haitus.
Because of this today we discuss some very controversial topics, just because.
We then adjourn outside and enjoy the summer evening with some stogies, whiskey and fun company, remembering some fun times from our previous podcasts.
We'll be doing some podcasts in the upcoming monsts, but not a regular weekly thing, at least not for the near future.
And that, as they say, is that.

What the Hell just Happened? Seriously, what happened this week?


This week, we start off fun, talking about Simon's flying and recent acquisition of a new endorsement, a party, a Doobie Brothers concert and Greg's attendance at a Cohiba store event.
Then we start to get into the meat of the stuff:
We're being told the world is falling to pieces, and a lot of it seems to be manufactured. 
The debt ceiling BS is having stock market implications and the 24 hour news media is going nuts over it of course.
There's rioting in London, and since people there are no longer allowed to defend themselves, it's getting out of hand.
Where's the debt repayment from the bailouts?
The problem with 24 hour news stations.
Then we talk about bad drivers of course too of course.
Just think what fun the 24 hour news stations would have had if they'd even around in 1911, on the cusp of World War 1....they'd probably have started it in 1912 instead of 1914, and would have gleefully told the Kaiser what the allies were planning, all for the sake of a good story.

It's August already....how'd that happen?




This week we talk about Simon's super fun week (which included a wedding at Tilden Park above Berkeley, usually boring but not in this case.) although it started off bad with the person who rear ended his car 7 weeks ago trying to say Simon backed into him...yeh right, at a traffic light. Nice try ass hole.

Greg talks about his week, and for once, SImon's was more fun.

We do talk about the debt ceiling debacle that was finalized today, and we got shafted. No surprises there.

We postulate on the reason for San Jose's rising homicide rate....it's gang related, so guess where the gang members come from?

We also talk about a sad story, a quadriplegic man died while parachuting. It's sad, but sort of amusing too....sometimes nature tries to tell you when you shouldn't be doing something.

Of course, we talk about bad drivers too, as there's always lots of those about.

BMSMA.
