After I posted post on Saturday, I stepped away from Social Media, including the blog, except for one post on Facebook concerning Orange, TX, I've not even really looked at the blog and numbers.
So, I get up this morning and check Lake Charles weather radar, like I do every morning, ( Hey, I am old, the weather is important to us oldsters.) I then go over and check the numbers on blog and then, my message I receive on FB.
I am somewhat shocked at the amount of people who have written me concerning the Throuple blog and the follow-up. I was surprised at the number of people who know threesomes, foursome, and fivesomes( How does five even work?) living together. ( When I heard about the five, all I could think of was some porn site.....As someone wrote me, it is more about economics. I'm not sure about that, if they are Poly, well, being intimate is certainly involved.....)
And sure 'nuff, I had to explain to some of you naive folks what a " Train" was......
I really was shocked at the number of hits on the blog I received.....Seriously, I may need to look at a "Govteach After Midnight" blog.
Or perhaps not....
Then, I received a couple of upset folk's messages concerning my last blog concerning America spiraling into a Second World country.
I'm not sure what you are looking at?
The Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, Bloomberg are all reporting how bad the fast food restaurants are doing, and they can't sell breakfasts anymore. The first belt tightening meal is always breakfast. Heck, Wendy's is reporting that they cannot see any of their items.
The Kentucky Bourbon business is crashing. Again, unless you're an alcoholic, drinking bourbon is an expense that can be cut.
Retailers are looking for weaker than normal sales for Christmas.
Macroeconomic uncertainty and pressures such as inflation are weighing on the consumer is hurting a lot of businesses that rely on disposable income.
And I don't look for it to get better.
This will upset some people, but I may do more economics, trouble is, my economics blogs lose readership.....I may need to start an The Ecoteach-Part Deaux. I actually taught economics longer than government.
Finally, school starts this week for most districts in our area, most of Texas.
I spent 3 1/2 hours Friday night pumping up my nephew for his first day at Fort Stockton High School. He has my personality, but I worry.
I know Buna starts on Wednesday. As I have said, I start year 15 retired this academic year. I could no longer do it, nor would I want to do so.
There may be a blog addressed to teacher on Wednesday. I am not sure.......
As I have mentioned earlier, I am working on a couple of blogs concerning the Buna Schools. They are in the future. One I've found is difficult to write and research.
