It’s Los Angeles vs. New York. They meet once again in a World Series Classic for the first time since 1981. On the first day of the start of the series, my former college roomie —born and bred in Brooklyn— and I had the following exchange: 

Me: “Go Dodgers!!!”

Roomie: “Damn the Dodgers.!!! We supported them through all the bad years. And then they finally win the World Series and they pack up and move to California. The hell with them and their progeny!!!”

Besides my friends, along with personal and professional life experiences, my loving, supportive family is a regular form of inspiration. Life is often full of tedious tasks, but it is much easier to shoulder those tasks when we know it will make the people we love happy or comfortable. Appreciation, gratitude, as well as encouragement can serve as fuel to keep my fire burning when the going is difficult.

EYES HAVE IT

We grow up being told never ever judge a book by its cover. But since some are banning and others burning books, eyes have it.

You may not realize it, but the way we move our eyes can say a lot. Some individuals often exhibit a certain level of observational prowess. They are constantly scanning their surroundings, soaking up every detail.

Observant eye movements indicate an active mind, always processing and analyzing information. It’s a clear signal of an individual’s capacity to understand complex situations and think on their feet.

US ECONOMY: NEVER BEEN BETTER

Any way you cut it, punishing China with tariffs would not work because China does not pay the tariffs. We, the purchasers of the products with tariffs on them, pay those tariffs as part of the higher price we pay for goods that have been taxed with a tariff.

Either Donald Trump is so stupid that he does not understand this basic fact about tariffs and who pays them, or he throws the Boomerang, and it comes sailing back to the US.

In case you have been sleeping you may not have noticed that Donald Trump is threatening mass deportations in the US if he gets elected President.

It's obvious that he will start with undocumented people. That's non-US citizens with no regard to splitting up families who have documented and un-documented members. Many families will be split up when parents and grandparents will get rounded up and ejected from the US with nothing but the clothes on their backs.

It is no secret that Donald Trump and the whole Republican party are opposed to anyone making a 15.00 / hour minimum wage. They don't like overtime pay rates either.

The real Republicans (the people with all the money that get the tax cuts) are the owners of businesses and Stocks in larger companies, who don't want to raise the expenses for their companies. So they lobby the Government to keep minimum wages very low and to keep the workers poor.
