The error of going to the coronation: What did Harry do wrong

In the end, it didn't matter what Harry did.  He flew in for a 24-hour visit to the UK to see his father becoming the king of the United Kingdom.  His gesture was one of conciliation in a family that basically hates his guts, and that of his wife.

I did read his book, it was interesting in a kind of weird way.  What was amazing is how he and his brother were treated differently. On the bright side, Harry was able to become a real soldier, unlike the rest of his family, for a short period of time he had a real job.

Harry arrived Friday morning and Saturday afternoon around 4 pm he was gone.,  Yet the anti-harry bunch was going after the guy.  He arrived Friday, went to bed, and went to a coronation.  That's it, he spoke to only a few cousins and said very little, but the press does love drama, and made shit up.  He was right to go home ASAP.

The thing about this; is the best the press could do was to get a lip reader...he made zero press comments he arrived quietly smiling at his father's coronation and left equally quietly a few hours later.  That he did not join the family made sense, it's like going to a wedding when you are estranged, nothing good can come out of it, you go to the church but skip the reception.

Harry has made a life of sorts in the US, his book (maybe even books) has been a best-seller, it is eminently readable and generally funny.  which is not something you can say about the royal family and its hangers-on.  The truth is that the "royal press" still found bad things to say about Harry and Megan when he went out of his way to be "out of sight", of course, he was in the third row with Andrew and his children who are as far from the royal family as is possible, plus Harry rented his cottage to one of his cousins (until his father decided that is should go to his disgraced uncle Andrew).  I sure hope that Andrew paid the Stg 7 million to Harry and Megan that they invested in the place...but no one is holding their breath.

Harry doesn't need the royal family, his Netflix deal and his book deal should ensure that he and his wife are fine for the next 50 years -- after all, he knows how his great-uncle lived in Paris for all these years!  In addition, what Harry has done for injured servicemen and women with his Invictus games cannot be taken away, and is a real thing with real benefits to servicemen and women across the commonwealth and beyond.

The desperation of the British press to find bad things to say about Harry, who was by the way, all smiles the day of the coronation, and even made a "hi" signal to his brother...really the only people who look like morons here are the royal courtiers and the British press that would find something bad to say about Harry when he said absolutely nothing to anybody during his stay... a bunch of fucking hypocrites

Ok so I lied...a little (revised)

When we began looking at farming in 2013/14 as something we both wanted to do as a "second career" we invested time and money to understand what sector of farming was profitable.  A few things emerged, First, high-quality, source-proven, organic farm products consistently have much higher profit margins.  Secondly, transformation accounted for nearly 80% of total profits, and production and distribution accounted for 20% of profits: Farmers and retailers have low profit margins and the middle bits make all the money. A profitable farm operation needs to be involved in the transformation of its produce.  The low-hanging fruits: cheese and butter.  Milk, generates a profit margin of 5% to 8%, depending on milk quality.  Transformed into cheese and butter, and the profit margin rises to 40% (Taking into account all costs).  Second:  20% of a steer carcass is ground beef quality.  The price is low, because (a) a high percentage of the carcass, and (b)...

Spray painting Taylor Swift G650 aircraft (updated)

 First, a bit of paint will not harm anyone.  These climate activities are going to learn two things in the next few days:  (1) Trespassing at an airport is a felony almost anywhere in the world.  That means criminal prosecution.   (2) removing paint from an aircraft is expensive.   So these climate activists are about to find out the reach of the British criminal system and it will not be pleasant, the UK has very strict laws about that, I would be surprised if cleaning the aircraft of all the paint will cost less than $100,000.     I am sure that when they planned (premeditation) this little show they had a very valid logic to doing this.  Tonight, they are probably realizing the depth of their troubles.   I understand that in the UK it's a minimum one-year jail sentence.    Also, good luck travelling with a criminal trespass charge against you.  I am relatively certain that the airline industry will ...

Janet Yellen from China supporter to Hawk...

There is rarely serious news in the world these days, it seems that most newspapers are filled with headlines and little else, and then Ms Yellen went to China.  Secretary Yellen has long been known in the Biden administration as the voice of moderation when dealing with China, yet as her trip which concluded yesterday a hawk was born:  She warned the Chinese against dumping goods in the United States.    fighting words! The American administration is very concerned about the lack of Chinese domestic consumption.   Even before the COVID-19 epidemic, there were already the beginning signs of a slowdown, automobile sales were off.   China is facing domestic deflation (a clear sign of collapsing demand) China imports few consumer goods, they import raw materials and intermediary goods.   It seems that the American administration is concerned that the Chinese administration will dump consumer goods abroad to keep its manufacturing machinery ...
