Wordle 865: 3/6


 One more to go!

So far, 80 hat tricks and 19 Deuces.

Redeem Yourself! Redeem Myself?

 In personal relationships, I hope to enter into them with good will, and maintain good will even when it’s hard.  But it ain’t easy.  With some people, it’s hard to try to end the animosity because they seem determined to maintain it.

I’m a fan of

 Colonel Douglas MacGregor:  He provides great analysis of the military situation in Ukraine and the Middle East.  Great knowledge of history of various regions.


Tucker Carlson:  Bad people don’t like him.  So he has something to be said for him.  He’s a great journalist and insightful, as well as hilarious commentator.


James Howard Kunstler:  great podcaster and great writer.  He has come to me from the progressive tradition which he seems to have become disenchanted with.


Dave Collum:  a conspiracy theorist who is always a compelling listen.  His yearly blog entry is a must read.


Evergrande Pizza:  they sell pizza by the slice in Wuxi.  Tony & I eat there often.


Duolingo:  with reservations about its Wokeness.  But it is a great way to practice foreign languages.


Rudy Havenstein:  a great account on Twitter.  His posts on finance and his posts about pop culture are down my alley.  Every podcast he does is a must listen.


Coffee Pods:  very convenient.

Along the way to the Pagoda #2

I still have photos to show you all from yesterday’s Saturday morning hike. 








 

Wordle 862 3/6


 Two hat tricks in a row making for a successful weekend of wordling.

Two more of these and I will have hundred hat tricks or eagles for the year.

The Goal….


Accomplished!


We were able to hike to it!

 

A street in Jiangyin


 After having pizza at the Monte Carlo’s, my son Tony & I went for a walk around downtown.  There was street life and the streets were narrow.  Nice for walking.

 Only one class to teach today, so I’ll be going to school later.

But I’ll have a lot of planning to do.  So, I can’t take my foot off the gas.

Did some U.S. base get attacked?
