Third round of eye surgery Friday.

No. I don't have three eyes. I need to get the first eye that was done tweaked a little. Hopefully it will be the last time I have to deal with it.

I also have to pick up a new dog Friday. My old dog Sadie died a few weeks ago and I have been looking for a replacement. I found a really enthusiastic English Pointer mix at the pound. I just hope I can keep up with him.

Speaking of livestock, I also recently added three cats from a litter of my grand daughters cat. All three are solid white although one has three small dots on its head. The other two have one gold and one light blue eye. One had the gold eye on his right and the other has it on his left. They are all pretty cute and they are good at chasing grass hoppers.

The bottom line is that blogging will be late in the day on Friday.

    Okay. Three for me as well. As for the menagerie: PIKER!! I have seven cats since my husband has never met a cat he didn't like. We live on a small acreage surrounded by farms and horse ranches. They keep cats for the rodents but don't feed them. Plus he picked up one from the local drive in and we brought back another from Tennessee after a race. We planned to get dogs after retirement but it dawned on me one day while vacuuming a dust bunny the size of an M series excavator, with seven cats, who's going to notice a dog? So I brought home a beautiful pound hound they swore was a Spitz but is more like a cross between a Sheltie and a coyote. Then, it dawned again, who's going to notice another dog? So, drove to KC and picked up a long-haired Chihuahua. Wanted another rescue but the rescue operations demand a fenced yard. Everyone gets alone much better than expected. I continue to wear dark business clothes to work but it's a struggle.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t...

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
