Tuesday Will's Getting Bored

Baaah....outside it's cold and snowy. The temp is 6 degrees (this morning). We're having a week-long cold snap here in northern New Jersey. 

Inside we're jumpy at the clacks and clunks of pipes in the winter cold.  At 52 we're turning into a nervous old woman, it seems. 

We're still not doing anything on Substack. We miss it, a little, being able to post and/or troll about something that annoys us. But only a little. 

Today is Holocaust Remembrance Day. Long time reader(s) of this blog will recall we prefer Israel Kicked the Crap out of her Enemies Day. Hamas, Hezbollah, Yemen, Iran....the list of vanquished enemies these last two years is indeed impressive. 

We are also reminded that 35 years ago today (holy freholies) the Giants defeated the Bills 20-19 in Super Bowl XXV....Wide right! This is the greatest moment of our sports life. We've become indifferent to the Giants in recent years. With four Super Bowl victories we're quite satisfied. The late Tom Coughlin flame out and the Ben McAdoo implosion left us disappointed and drained. But with the hiring of John Harbaugh, we're tempted to get a new Giants cap. 

Minnesota....We don't have a strong opinion on operations in Minneapolis, but it appears the president wants a change in leadership and strategy. This strikes us as wise. Chuck Schumer (the worst Jew in America) is threatening to shut down the government over ICE funding. Okay, Chuck. Your terms are acceptable. 

DOGE Report: a day interrupted by snow removal. We deleted the British army planning scene and will rewrite it today. 

We read through one of the three stories we've written in the 5th nuke novel. It's good. For the first time in weeks, we feel just a bit of juju for a 4th story. Or at least some juju for coming up with an idea for a 4th story. 

We also did some thinking about our far in the future sci fi trilogy (remember that?). Mostly we thought about what Mars would be like. How would the planet's different regions look? What would internal Martian rivalries be like? 

We spent a lot of time thinking about Martian cultural issues. There'd be a constant push to ditch the old Latin geographic names. Mars would be semi-Spartan with a mandate for an hour of earth gravity exercise every week. Martians would constantly debate the need for that. 

Every year as Mars reaches its opposition to Earth, the navy would conduct vast fleet exercises.
