Y2K

[Mitch f]

I was reminded this morning of one of the worst hoaxes in my life...Y2K.

hard to believe it was 20 years ago and harder to believe the degree in which some people fell hard for it. But hindsight is 2020. And the new year is 2020, so...😂

My wife was and is in the telecom industry.  At that time I think she worked for Verizon.  Nobody in her realm was worried so I wasn't.

The fact that society depends so heavily on computers is scary as hell.  I mean it's only a matter of time......

Which brings me to this.....

Without getting into a political discussion, how are you processing this?

The act of taking out Soleimani was reportedly done to make us safer, but now we have THIS.  Where were the warnings when he was alive?

I hate war. Instead of always bucking up "defense" why can't we get to the heart of why they want us dead in the first place, and work on improving that situation?   I'm not buying the crap we are being fed, that they are just evil people that hate us for no good reason at all.   I'm sure there's a reason, and it's probably a darn good one.    

So sick of the Hatfield and McCoy crap.  Every country deserves to prosper equally and it shouldn't be impossible to work together so that can happen.

Well, I’m sure some think this is a distraction form the impeachment joke but to me the impeachment Process keeps getting weaker the longer they wait. I think it was more of Trump not wanting another Benghazi under his watch and rightfully so. 
will it lead to an all out war? I don’t know but some have called Trumps decision an act of terrorism against brown people...give me a break

We have General's too, and it was THEIR idea to take the actions they did.  Our president just agreed to trust their judgement and let them do their job.    This isn't a "Trump thing" IMO.

Yes we was trained on this and from what I got it will happen just watch and be ready.

If you think about it I believe President Trump is messing with Heads even the Democrats, saying if you want to jump come on but you know we will kick your Back Side.

It looks like I better think more when talking with Siri.

It seems me and Trump are both learning. I'm thinking my iPhone is soooooo cool.
