Interesting Trump reference from 2006

Just saw this quote in an old interview I did from 2006. Note the Trump reference- it’s hard to remember when Trump was “just” a reality-TV host. And before that, a well-known rich guy.

(I’ll post the article below if you find it interesting)
This part was referring to an internet-based “cat reality show” I had hosted around that time-
Int: Was there a particular pun on the show you enjoyed most?

Tom “My weekly catchphrase "You are Meowta here!" Not that it's not a stupid thing to have to say every episode, but I always wanted my own TV catchphrase, like Fonzy or Freddie Prince. Or Trump.”

What a trio huh? Fonzy (Aaaaaayyyy!) Freddie Prinze (Looking Good!) and Trump, (You’re Fired)

Here’s the rest of this (remember, it’s from 17 years ago!)

Should not have let her watch…

I don’t know if I even posted this video before -I shot it a year ago. Martha was riveted to this scene from the original Prince of Egypt. But I really don’t think she appreciated the dog being thrown overboard.

“Seneca”

“Until we have begun to go without them, we fail to realize how unnecessary many things are.
We've been using them not because we needed them but because we had them.”

“Epictetus”

“The world turns aside to let any man pass who knows where he is going.”

— Epictetus

This is one of my favorite quotes.
I’ve always said that if you ‘walk like a Predator’, you never need be afraid. Because predators don’t attack predators.
In a bad neighborhood or bad part of town, if you walk and act like you know what you are doing, people leave you alone.
This also works in interpersonal relationships. If you are confident, people rarely question you, and you tend to go farther in life.

Even if the confidence is a ‘facade’, only you need to know that you have doubts.

“It ‘bears’ further”

Explanation…

I apologize for the quick ‘Bear’ post, but I was at Powell Ranger Station Idaho with an iffy signal.

For those of you whom were fans of the ‘Late Great Paul Harvey’;

Here is ‘The rest of the story’.

My lovely bride and I were on a 4+ hour Scoot ride through the Lolo pass of the Bitterroot mountains.
At or near the 5,233 ft summit of the pass is the Montana/Idaho border. We decided to turn around at ‘Powell’ Idaho, in 12 miles, as indicated by a mileage marker.

There is no ‘Powell Idaho’, there’s the ‘Powell Ranger station’, which has adjacent to it the ‘Powell Lodge’.
There is a lodge/Restaurant and it has surrounding log cabins. The area also has a ‘rustic’ convenience store gas station.
We stopped to stretch, I pumped fuel while @The_CINC went inside to grab a couple of cold drinks.

Once I finished fueling the Scoot, I found a shady spot to park it in, and I went inside the store.
The word ‘Store’ is a gracious description. ...
