MJ's little flock

Good morning MJ

 

[MaryJanet]

I didn't notice either!! And then I had loads of messages on my profile from people I don't know but who are very respected, so I wasn't in the dark for long!

I can't say I'm a Star Wars fan... One I'm hoping to avoid if @ all possible.

It was very hectic. Lots of action.

I'm hoping to see JoJo Rabbit @ some point. Yep, I like my movies odd...

 

[MaryJanet]

A very mature response.

I might add one more thought: context really matters. If we switched places, our needs would switch too and then maybe also our attitudes.

MJ you couldn't be more correct. Just a bit about me... I spent a little over 12 years in the military and left with an early retirement (part of the peace dividend after the first gulf war, when the DoD basically laid a half million people off). I spent a couple years in Saudi as a government contractor and then relocated to the DC metro area where I spent 20 years as a government contractor. Even though today I'm still technically a government contractor, I no longer have government customers and since I've moved to Tennessee, I've totally unplugged. I don't even have regular TV. I am happy to just not know what's going on. What's been going on back in the district is really embarrassing to me and just no longer worth my time.

Is it done now do you think? I'm getting a bit tired of it. Maybe I'm just too old for the good/evil narrative these day.

That saga has to be over.

However, Disney is never done. If they can make money they will make more films. Expect more ancillary stories to come.

I agree wholeheartedly. Great observation.

For me, your president and his policies are bewildering and seem rather anti-human in a way. Causing more harm than good if you see what I mean. But our mob are sometimes just as bad.

But I wasn't thinking of him when I first mentioned fear. I was thinking of guns. But let's not open that can of worms. Context is everything and my views on most matters would likely be very different if I lived elsewhere.

Oh boy... If I can get away with it, I may decline to participate from here.
