  • If I Were Peter Storer Sr., And/Or If I Sat On The Board Of Directors Of Storer Broadcasting/Storer Communications In The Mid-1980’s; I Would Not Have Approved The Leveraged Buyout Of This Company By The Buyout Firm Kohlberg, Kravis, And Roberts (KKR). I Also Would Not Have Approved Of Storer Broadcasting/Storer Communications Spending More Money And Means Than It Actually Had To Invest In The Medium Of, And Build An Infrastructure For Cable Television

    August 1st, 2025

    If I Were Peter Storer Sr., And/Or If I Sat On The Board Of Directors Of Storer Broadcasting/Storer Communications In The Mid-1980’s; I Would Not Have Approved The Leveraged Buyout Of This Company By The Buyout Firm Kohlberg, Kravis, And Roberts (KKR). I Also Would Not Have Approved Of Storer Broadcasting/Storer Communications Spending More Money And Means Than It Actually Had To Invest In The Medium Of, And Build An Infrastructure For Cable Television.

    I would have also suggested that Storer hold onto it’s Radio Stations, some of which are the parents of their Television Stations (WJBK-AM-FM-TV, WJW-AM-FM-TV/WJKW-TV, and WAGA-AM-FM-TV); rather than invest in the overall Medium of, and building an infrastructure for Cable Television.

  • Why Contemporary Music Is Annoying: A Deep Dive

    August 1st, 2025

    Following up from my earlier post Contemporary Music Is Exceedingly Unpleasant. We Are Discussing Any Popular, Hip Hop, And Rock Music Made And Recorded Since The Late 1990’s, As Well As Neo-Country Music; I still find modern music to be extremely annoying. Popular, Hip Hop, Rock, and Neo-Country music made and recorded since the late 1990’s are all included.

    And, especially this Hip Hop music artist imitating James Brown:

  • I Am Not Happy About The North American Automobile Market Shifting From Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) To Pure Internal Combustion Vehicles

    July 31st, 2025

    I Am Not Happy About The North American Automobile Market Shifting From Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) To Pure Internal Combustion Vehicles.

    See this earlier post regarding my fervor towards Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs): I, The Owner Of This Very Blog; Am Not Happy About The Ford Motor Company (As Of The Time Of Writing This Post), Cancelling Upcoming Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) Projects To Focus On Plug-In Hybrid (PHEV) And Pure Internal Combustion Vehicles.

  • I, The Owner Of This Very Blog; Am Not Happy About The Ford Motor Company (As Of The Time Of Writing This Post), Cancelling Upcoming Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) Projects To Focus On Plug-In Hybrid (PHEV) And Pure Internal Combustion Vehicles

    July 31st, 2025

    I know I once wrote about a fear that I had over Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV) largely supplanting Pure Internal Combustion Vehicles in these earlier posts that I wrote The New Year (As Of The Time Of Writing This Post), And The New Decade That We’ve Entered, and One More Note Regarding The New Decade That We’ve Entered.

    However, since writing these two posts; I have come to own three Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs), to date; I have since had a change of heart as far as BEVs are concerned.

    I wish that the Technology with Batteries and Electric Powertrains became feasible as early as the 1970’s; and I also wish that Battery Electric Vehicles caught on during the Brass Era of the Automobile.

    This time around, I am writing about how I am not happy over the Ford Motor Company cancelling upcoming Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) projects to concentrate on Plug-In Hybrid (PHEV) and pure Internal Combustion Vehicles.

  • I Personally Disagree With The 19th Century American Politician Albert Gallatin Riddle, A Politician From The U.S State Of Ohio; About Preserving The Memory And Life’s Work Of The Deceased For Eons To Come

    July 31st, 2025

    I Personally Disagree With The 19th Century American Politician Albert Gallatin Riddle, A Politician From The U.S State Of Ohio; About Preserving The Memory And Life’s Work Of The Deceased For Eons To Come:

    As a rule, Men are remembered as long as they deserve to be. The world is too busy to preserve dead leaves, even as specimens; let them rot where they fall. If haply, the Earth may be fertilized by their timely decay.

    The memory and life’s work of the deceased shall be preserved for eons to come, and future generations of people should not accept the fact that time moves on, and morals of the 20th Century and earlier times should not die with the deceased.
