American superstar wrestler Hulk Hogan wearing T-shirt logo nWo (his 1980s television "new world order" wrestling team) was carrying a ball point pen from the Indian Rocks Baptist Church which was used to puncture an air bag to free a young girl trapped in an overturned wrecked car. Stranger than fiction!

    A while ago I mentioned I would be starting my convoluted around the world flight on New Year's Day. Yesterday morning I made the 2 1/2 hour flight from Roswell NM to Monterrey Mexico. Today it's off to Mexico City. I'll give you a progress report every Monday. Noel

    AI and technology and doing EVERYTHING on-line scares. Yesterday I had to remove the safe deposit box contents from my bank branch because it is closing down. Not actually closing down, just getting rid of human to human contact because more and more people are finding it easier to bank on their iPhones or on-line than go into a physical bank and work directly through a human teller. I've only gone to the physical bank for safe deposit box business or to deposit checks I get in the mail lately. But what do the discarded employees do? Who cares? They're only humans that cost money. Next, after talking to my granddaughter on the phone I find out the…

Ronald lived in Marin City, a low rent housing development across the bay built by Kaiser during World War II to house shipyard workers. He had no father, and he and his sister lived in one of the barracks like apartments with his mother. I imagine his mother sent him to Saint Brigid's in the hopes that …

    IF this is true, and the team hasn't missed something, it could be mindblowing. Charles Buhler is a NASA scientist, so not some crank working in his shed. 1G of thrust attained, with no propellant.
