Farce?

Was it nothing short of a farce in the British Parliament on Wednesday regarding the Israel-Hamas vote? I'm currently watching Evita played by Madonna. Eva met Peron on 22 January 1944. My other favourite film is  Brokeback Mountain.  Ennis Del Mar (Heath Ledger) was my favourite star in that film.  Is it a coincidence he passed away on 22 January 2008?

Martin's

Martin's - the convenience store which also carried the name of my older brother - has changed hands in Billingham Town Centre.  It is now operating as a Morrison's Daily Store with delivery available! I'll still think of Martin whenever I shop there though.

Economist Role-Model

 I look up to my role model Joseph, who was a great economist in the land of Egypt in biblical times. Next Monday, 1 March, I will embark on a detailed study of the book Basic Economics by Sowell, which I aim to complete by Passover this year. It's high time I refresh my Cambridge education! ;)

Peace

...is now needed in the Middle-East conflict between Israel and Hamas. Anything short risks the unnecessary loss of countless thousands of innocent civilians in Gaza., as well as the fate of the remaining 136 Israeli hostages. It is time for a new-dawn ceasefire!  Israel has put up a good fight, but it is now time to sue for peace. Remember the Sixth Commandment!

IT 15 SERIOUS....

 My Dad (Joe) went into hospital today in Alicante, Spain, for a chest examination. Whilst he was told for now that he is ok and need not report for further tests until 3 months' time, his condition is a serious one brought upon him by a lifetime of smoking. Kids: Don't Smoke or Vape! That's me being serious for once.

SuperbOwl 58

In yesterday's NFL's SuperbOwl game held in Las Vegas between the Kansas Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers , love won the day when Taylor Swift flew in at the last minute all the way from Japan to support her boyfriend Travis Kelce   Kansas Chiefs were the Champions are after a VERY close fought game!

Germany

1992: I left Germany (touring) with money in my pocket 1995: I left Germany (after studying in Heidelberg for a year on the ERASMUS exchange programme) helped by my Dad & Brother, heading home via Paris 2006: I left Germany (after working in Frankfurt and Dusseldorf for 7 years) with assets (a house) intact in London, which I later sold to finance a year studying for my MBA at INSEAD in Fontainebleau (on the outskirts of Paris). One more round of National Lottery tickets and then I MUST STOP GAMBLING!

Unless

...Brunei recognises the State of Israel, it should not be offered Climate Help to transition away from an economy based on hydrocarbons to one based purely on tourism. 

World War

I was inspired to start a World War - the LAST War - because it is God's divine Will prophesied in the Books of Daniel and Revelation, and spoken of by all the Prophets as well as Jesus Himself.
