T.T.T. index theory


Finding T.T.T. along the side of the road during a walk is kind of a hobby of mine.  My T.T.T. index theory postulates that the better the quality of T.T.T., the better the economy is.  When people are prosperous, they tend to throw away "good" or better than average quality T.T.T.  When the economy is in decline, people want to hold on to their wealth thereby clinging to good quality stuff & discarding low quality stuff.  The picture above shows a plethora of low quality T.T.T. all collected on one walk.  The peace time economic conflict is getting fiercer.  Being that I go hungry toward the middle and end of the week, I personally know.  Darwinian economics is scary sh** for those of us toward the bottom strata of the economic totem pole.

A preacher recently spoke on the power of words.  I believed in his sermon except that words on green pieces of paper have more power than the spoken word being that they are backed by the federal government and their guns & weapons!

Burgess Meredith played some memorable roles not to mention the Penguin on Batman the TV series and Rocky Balboa's trainer in Rocky (the movie).  I found out the other night that he did some writing and directing too.  I saw a little of a movie he wrote, directed, and co-starred in called The Yin And The Yang Of Mr. Go.  A very young Jeff Bridges starred in this movie.  All I can say is after the first fifteen minutes, I searched through to the end looking for nudity which there was not much of.  I hope his other stuff was better than this.  Anyway, from what little I know of him, he was a good guy & the stuff I saw him perform in was good soooo...rest in peace Mr. Meredith.

I'm angry.  Over the course of several years I have read many many books on money & personal finance to try to prosper if not just to get rich.  Okay.

Power comes form God but then there are challenges, obstacles, learning experiences, & tests.  Okay.
