Overcast, not cold.
Just cannot believe being on a giant vessel gliding over the Strait of Gibraltar. Not a slight movement felt. As if we are on land. The sea is incredibly calm and flat.

Congratulations to @APalm, @Pam_Antosiak, @RockNRollHS. Your questions were chosen for tonight’s.Ask Greg and the Panelists.
@APalm Who's a celebrity that is universally considered attractive, but they just don't do it for you?
@Pam_Antosiak At your current level of professional success, do you still have a five year plan? And if you do, where do you want to be in five years?
@RockNRollHS What is it that annoys you the most these days?
Tough to be Irish
"What's your name?", asked the teacher.
"Mohammad," he replied.
"You're in Ireland now," replied the teacher, "So from now on you will be known as Mike.
" Mohammad returned home after school.
"How was your day, Mohammad?", his mother asked.
"My name is not Mohammad. I'm in Ireland and now my name is Mike”.
"Are you ashamed of your name? Are you trying to dishonor your parents, your heritage, your religion? Shame on you!"
And his mother beat the shit out of him. Then she called his father, who beat the shit out of him again.
The next day Mohammad returned to school. The teacher saw all of his fresh bruises.
"What happened to you, Mike?", she asked.
"Well shortly after becoming an Irishman, I was attacked by two fucking Arabs."

Warning! Mini Rant!
Difference between "The Wealthy" in a society built on Capitalism and one built on Socialism.
In a Capitalistic Society, the extremely wealthy have gotten that way by providing goods and services that make other peoples lives better. I, for one, hold Jeff Bezos no ill will. He allows me to sort through a tremendous selection, pick out the item I need and have it delivered to my house the next day at the best price possible. Everyone is happy. The Wealthy in a capitalistic system have gotten that way by making society better, more efficient and incredibly prosperous. They create jobs...which is actualy more important than paying taxes(which they do...the top 5% pay 61% of all Federal taxes). They made our country better first, and then became wealthy.
Make no mistake, there are "wealthy" in Socialism based societies. Wealthy in the fact that they have thousands of times the money and material goods than the average citizen. But their wealth came from making no one ...
