Today is a Friday, heading into a Honored Memorial Day Weekend ….
Normally the unofficial opening of the pools…. it’s happening, but not 100%, at least in our neck of the woods !
Special thanks to all whom have served or are serving currently and a special thanks to all of those on the front lines fighting our current health situation!
Have a Great Friday and an Honored Memorial Day Weekend!

What a Rainy and chilly week it was here in the south…
Made for a Great Writing week (A lot last weekend too) much to our Editors Happiness…
With the kiddos out on the street today at the half way point, we are headed out early for our collective protection…
In a continuation of the goal for the twelve year old, yours truly will be out of town this weekend and Monday in honor of Presidents Day.
Capital Markets, Banks, Government and Our Office will be closed Monday as well.
New Toy … Look for Neat Office Stuff Soon… after we figure out how to get around the no fly zone restrictions due to local airport…grrrr

Connecting 4 Billion People … Half the Worlds Population Shortly – SpaceX’s Starlink
So there was a time when manufacturers laughed and Elon Musk and said no way would he ever get an electric car off the assembly line, much less in our garages….
Neat posts from the past on his Tesla journey, here, here and here … and did you notice he had a successful launch over the weekend?
Starlink by SpaceX
With a goal of launching twenty thousand, yes THOUSAND low level satellites this year for connectivity of cell service, likely is not a good bet against him…
Here is a picture of a 60 satellite launch…
You may say, so what?
His goal is to bring the other half of the world on line via high speed 5G cell at the latest 2025 … and it looks like he may complete it much earlier…
Sure, there will be some “bad” guys i.e. hackers that come on line…. but think of the brilliant brain power and future consumer that also come on line.
Anyone with a bit of salt in their hair recalls the dial up connection that likely was their first experience with the internet… not these folks, they will come up at 4G and most likely 5G as their first connection… thousands of times faster than our first connection… maybe even 100’s faster than what we have now…
Pretty positive stuff!
Have a Great “4 billion soon” Day!
