@RyanGirdusky It’s funny how some people function like the last 24 years of geopolitics never happened.

We used to have these. They were called Apartment Hotels. They’d consist of a single room with a bathroom, housecleaning, a cafeteria and lounges. Imagine being able to rent month to month and not need to furnish an apartment. It was ideal. Nuts we got rid of these.

Lots of people's social & romantic lives could be vastly improved if it was normal for young adults to live in college dorm-style accommodation in city centres until they were ready to set up home properly. Why doesn't this exist? I think there would be a market for it!

A married couple revealed their government checks. “$142,000 a year.” From disability. $4,700 a month for her. $7,200 a month for him. What does it say about the system when they’re making more doing nothing than the taxpayers working to fund it.

A 30-year-old in 1980 owned a house like this working at the local factory. Married six years with three kids. Weekends meant Little League games. Both sets of grandparents lived within five miles. The kids would attend the same high school he did and grow up with the children of his own friends. This is a dying concept

This marks the first time college graduates have lost their employment advantage since the federal government began tracking these data in the 1990s, per Fortune.

Another casualty of the “End of History” kool aid drinkers. You don’t need to invest in expensive domestic shipbuilding capacity if you believe the world is just one big global market. The damage done by Fukuyama and neocons is immeasurable. .
60 Minutes@60Minutes

Shipbuilding in the United States has been in shambles due to decades of shortsighted policies and neglect. Today, the U.S. rolls out about three large cargo ships a year while China does around 1,000. The Trump administration has called this a national security crisis. Sunday.

Morning-After thought: Underrated story line weaved through HPU’s past two seasons is the long term payoff of selflessness and commitment to team/process. Chase Johnston was a starter earlier this year and after a bit of a rocky stretch for the overall team he was asked to take a smaller, more specific role, for the benefit of the group. He committed to it, got better at it, and this morning he is now the hero of the first day of March Madness. Cam’Ron Flethcher, went through some struggles this season. It was obvious he had to earn his way back into the rotation off the bench with defensive play and rebounding. Which he did (we all saw the effort, big fella!). The result: he’s been an absolute monster and his offensive game has started to feed off the defensive/rebounding energy. Go back to Bobby P, Trae (Mr Mean Mug), Laye, Simon and Terry last year. They ended up saving our season in Johnson City and taking HPU to their first NCAAT bid when all of them had various reasons to check out at given times. Then finally take a look at Dan Hauser and Nido Qubein. Surely there were naysayers who said a school like High Point should have gone out and got a big name HC hire or a power 5 assistant coach. But instead they trusted the process and committed to the guy one seat down the bench; who understands the vision. Moral of the story is sometimes trusting your coaches, your teammates and yourself through a tough situation is more rewarding than bailing at the first sign of adversity or trouble. That’s a lesson college basketball seems to need across the board now, more than ever.
