The pundits in USA are starting to give the Trump Administration 200 days tops before it falls. Paddy Power is offering two to one odds that Trump is impeached in his first term. Paddy Power also puts the chances of a 2017 impeachment at four to one. One can only hope.

Reuter is reporting that Britain’s health service is engulfed in a “humanitarian crisis” that requires the support of the Red Cross to use Land Rovers to transport patients, the charity said on Saturday. Is this effecting any of the forum members. I am 70 and I know a lot of other members are over 60. In USA we have Social Security but that is only for those over 65 or disabled. My former employee is also helping with my healthcare. It sure pays to have a decent employer with benefits.

I even liked the movie the Right Stuff where the actor playing Glenn was on a national TV program called Name That Tune where he successful names the tune being played as Straighten Up and Fly Right. The movie was universally panned by aviation critics including test pilot Scott Crossfield who didn’t like the film making fun of President LBJ. Chuck Yeager played the bartender at the Happy Bottoms Riding Club. One of my favorite aviation movies no matter what others thought.

Have last year’s calendar hanging on the wall next to my computer – was looking forward to this year’s issue.

Piece of Cake was nihilistic and provocative on purpose(the book even more so) although nothing was wrong with the acting or film making. The author was a one time RAF pilot I believe who thought that the RN could alone prevent the German invasion – a highly doubtful proposition.

USA is a Right nation – politics right of center due to religious, racial, and economics conditions. Obama was reelected in 2012 with only 39% of the white vote. If Clinton can carry Florida (made up of large groups of blacks, Hispanics, and Jews) she would be almost impossible to beat. Note: Obama carried Florida twice.
