    I love watching those phony house hunting shows on HGTV, where the newlyweds in Cali drop $700,000 on a fixer upper. 

    Inheritance is the great unseen hand of wealth in America.

  2. The others haven't made any money.  The middle one should be at UCLA right now but instead, his dad sent him to Europe only to bust.  Not sure what he's doing 10 years from now.

    Same here.  I pointed out that his offensive games was the most polished all around for a college player in a long time.  Had absolutely no weakness on that side of the ball.  He may be slight and bad at defense but he his offensive game is A+.

  4. Interview with her on CBS Sunday Morning.  She should be mentioned as one of the great comedic actors of all time.  She's devoted her entire professional career to it.  She could have easily led a rich, comfortable life but she slogged through the comedy circuit and she's been at this for 30 years at this point.  Still is a master at her craft and knows how to deliver comedy.

    Should a Special Prosecutor be asking an elected man if he cheated on his wife?

    Think about that.

    Yeah, not to go CR but Starr was originally running an investigation involving shady real estate deals by Clinton's shady Arky friends.  You'll need a flow chart to understand how they ended up even knowing about Monica.

    As we've learned since, Ken Starr sucks at investigating things.

  6. If you get a hefty life insurance policy, they'll make you do extensive blood work.  It really isn't that big of a deal unless you're scared of needles, which she claimed to be.

    She makes it out to sound like the current process for blood testing is this huge roadblock to health care.  Never mind these places are everywhere.  She also made it sound like her uncle or whoever that died of cancer would have survived if a blood test told him years in advance that he would have cancer.  I could be mistaken but blood tests don't tell you that, regardless of where they're done.

  7. Also, her solution of cheap and easy blood tests was for a problem that is not that big of a problem.  Traditional blood tests aren't that expensive or hard to do.  (God knows there are labs everywhere.)  Only hurdle is that some people don't like needles but that's not that big of a hurdle.  It's basically a solution to something that's not a problem.

    That female Stanford professor was on to her from the beginning.

    She was in the podcast as well.  Said Holmes' original idea was to put medications in an IV drip of sorts.  Professor said that's medically impossible because they're "potent."  (I don't know what that means.)  Said Holmes kept arguing with her and insisted it would work.

  9. Hearing her describe how the Edison machine actually worked was interesting.  This isn't a case of "fake it until you make it."  She knew her product didn't work, wouldn't work, and passed it off as something else.  That's fraud.

    Even Boies was in on it.  He tried using "trade secrets" to hide that they were using other machines.  

  10. It found it interesting that this was supposedly this groundbreaking medical company but not one person involved with actual medicine was involved with it other than the doctor from Stanford they bought off.  Sure, Mattis and Schultz might be brilliant but they don't know dick about medical research.  

    I like the comment from Schultz's grandkid about the divide between the carpeted areas at the tiled.  The business and marketing people on the carpeted side thought it was great, the scientists on the tiled side thought it was dog shit.
