Mountain Lions!!!

HaHaHaHa!!!

When we lived in Palo Alto a mountain lion came down San Fransisquito creek across the street from out house and sadly ended up to near a school. Wonder if Palo Alto will be the next Mountain Lion Habitat.

I also was a member of the San Mateo County Mounted Patrol. A horse club in Woodside on Kings Mountain Rd. Got some insight to Woodside politics. Small town billionaires.

A affordable house in Woodside would be 10 million. A friend, a First Nations American real estate agent, got 4 points for selling an estate for 115 million there. Affordable housing will not be solved on the bay side of the peninsula. Maybe ocean side. The tell will be if affordable housing is built in Redwood City. We used to drive through Mexico Redwood City to get to Costco. Them Atherton leaf blowers need to live somewhere. Rethinking, maybe Stanford could be strongarmed into building affordable housing. Or, house them in the Heritage Foundation buildings.

Republicans tolerate McWhorter because he provides a facile "even the liberals!" line of attack on wokeness. McWhorter is IMO not particularly liberal, but he is black and not patently crazy, which is good enough for antigovernmental work.

On one image. We would not need to be asking this question if CDC had been doing randomized screening screening testing since day one. Depending one the answer, would that have mean we should already have an Omicron-optimized booster?

But doesn't any rubber on the road at all mean that a little less torque would be just as effective at accelerating? Seems the Fed should just recommit to average inflation and announce any immediate action like faster phasing out bond purchase, (in deed it should have done that back in September) but not comment to future actions like interest rate increases. Every board meeting should be a tweak of the "regime." Isn't the TIPS at least prima facie evidence of the need to do a little more sooner?
