Hatred: Harry Wales & Taylor Swift

After two weeks in the US where the royal family is only rarely discussed, I noticed that some people's hatred of Ms Swift was palpable yet unexplainable.  Very much like some bozos using their big truck to block a Tesla charging station, it is a visceral dislike, because she represents something that they cannot accept, fundamentally Ms. Swift represents "Women Power" and she doesn't use her sexuality, her audience is not the Male Gaze but rather woman's right to be independent of men.  They obviously have tremendous power both socially and financially, heck her show noticeably affected local GDP, more so even than the Superbowl.  Even the GOP is realizing that attacking Ms, Swift has left them open to attack by her legions of ferocious supporters.  

The hatred for Harry is similar, especially for the royal watchers who live their entire professional existence from the ups and downs of covering the royal family.  This morning, one particular TV presenter gleefully said on morning television, that no one wanted Harry and that he could probably pitch a tent somewhere on the Sandringham estate.  As she said these mean words she had this vicious little smile, she probably never met the prince.  She's just a mean little person, who enjoys being mean because she knows she can get away with it.  Simply a despicable person.

As for Harry, what's wrong with a hotel room.  He was not about to crash at his brother's, or his father's, the royals who like him, generally live abroad, which should tell you something.

Harry went to see his father who is possibly receiving chemotherapy, which would explain the weakness.  Once he has seen his him, well that's it for now.  William will have to wait for another day, considering that William has a lot on his plate, first a recovering wife from serious surgery, additional royal duties, and three children.   

Harry with a lot of dignity, went to see his father, wished him well and then went home.  Harry and Megan have made the only choice they could for their family.  America is the choice and there is no scenario where a return could occur.  

Frankly, like at the coronation, Harry showed maturity, did what was necessary and then left to avoid detracting from the royal circus.  This is not his show, his show is in California!

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 ...
