The net-zero brigade in bambuworld seem hellbent on 'going up' not 'out' [building hi-rise apartment blocks by the *millions*, and not developing land and building homes.]

Underneath these apartment blocks full of people they want everyone to have an electric car and charge them there.
Charming.
Ahem, electric car fires anyone?
Barbecued apartment dwellers anyone?

Green realists are already warning green dreamers that it's a very bad idea, given the propensity of electric car batteries to explode in flames.
Electric car batteries, electric bike batteries, electric scooter batteries...look at all those fires.
One such electric car battery exploded while charging in a home garage in America, blew the garage door off its *hinges* and down the driveway. [Colorado?]
The door hit a fireman on the head, luckily he was wearing a helmet.

That is how Empire West is in West Hollywood, 19 stories straight up with a club house and a swimming pool on the roof, with 4 stories underground for parking. Empire West is where all of the stars live who need security guards and door men and valets, etc. Many of the women at Empire West have stalkers, etc. Empire West is a good, safe spot for the stars, like for Shakira, and for Margot Robbie, etc.

For nice housing, I kind of like the housing at Santorini, Greece, and there can be swimming pools and tennis courts, and that is what I would suggest for Battle Mountain, Nevada, they should bring in the Greek architects when they build, and they can have an island atmosphere out in the middle of Nevada. With libraries, etc. And an amphitheater where they can have shows, etc, like in Greece. 

Anaheim is going to be rolling in the money, Disney is spending a lot of money here, and Newsom is giving tax breaks for producers to film, and money is being invested in Hollywood Blvd, good things are happening in California, and Mayor Bass is doing a great job, etc.

And we need more subways, and high speed trains. For Battle Mountain, Nevada, they have a Greyhound Bus Station so people can get there by Bus, and they have an Airport, and the Union Pacific Railroad runs through Battle Mountain.

And of course cheap sober living houses are needed, and cheap hostels where people can get a cheap shower and a bed. In Battle Mountain, Nevada, they had a nice tavern with rooms for rent above the tavern for $100 per month, which would be great for a Veteran, or for someone who wants to go explore Battle Mountain.

Salute,

Tony V.

I descended from the Pioneers, who traveled to find their dreams and to live peaceful lives. So, that is my advice for the Palestinians, they need to refuse to be a pawn in a war that makes money for bad people, and they need to let Kiwanis International take them to the forest of Canada, and to other peaceful places, Abu Dhabi and Dubai are peaceful, etc. The refugees need to travel to find good safe lives, and they can do forestry work in Canada, etc, or they could be a truck driver in Dubai, etc, they can be essential workers.

And they all need to read "Animal Farm" by George Orwell.

My ancestors were pioneers who traveled in order to have good lives, and that is my advice for the refugees is to travel to where they can have a good peaceful life. And make life about love, and have a nice family, and work a nice peaceful job in the Lumber Industry, etc. Leave the war behind, and go have a peaceful life in the forest of Canada. Kiwanis has a village in Victoria, British Columbia, that would be perfect for the refugees.

Salute,

For some reason I am getting photos on my facebook page of all of the young models and actresses, I did not request them all, but I enjoy looking at them all, and as a Producer, and writer, I can imagine which jobs they would be good for, etc. Like Aaron Spelling with "Fantasy Island" and "Love Boat," there could be an adult version for a newly started Playboy Channel, and "I Dream of Jeanne" and "Beach Blanket Bingo" and "Fun in Acapulco," etc.

And Playboy Magazine can interview Muzi of China ( They could have National Lampoon from Harvard do the interview for Playboy ) and they can have a pictorial of Mahlagha Jaberi to promote improved women's rights in Iran. Etc. They could do a lot of cool things.

Anyhow, the new young women on social media are going to  be the future stars in the Entertainment Industry. And 54% of the modern services economy is streaming services such as movies and television shows. The world needs content, and Aaron Spelling and Hugh Hefner made a fortune from hiring the beautiful young women.

There was a sign at the entrance at Universal Studios and it said that the most beautiful women in the world enter that gate. And back then even the Fred Flintstone show had lots of beautiful women. Women love show business, and the Producers get rich.

Salute,

Tony V.

Bambu, they had a family from Australia on the television news, they were tourists visiting Disneyland, the reporter told the Aussies that Disney is going to invest billions of dollars into improving Disneyland and she asked them if they were going to come back after the work is complete, the Aussies said they would love to come back. It is nice that the Aussies like it here.

On the issue of USC and the valedictorian, Spielberg is highly involved with the film department at USC, and other prominent Jews help to run USC, they are not going to allow antisemitic people to give speeches at USC.

Sean Astin is giving the speech at UCLA, he is a great choice, I met him when I worked for Suzanne Pleshette, and Sean Astin is a cool dude.

Musk is making mistakes as he pulls jobs out of California and takes them to other places, and with the Space Program, etc, then we need the Antelope Valley and Cape Canaveral, etc.

My favorite Billionaire is British, even though I have my problems with the British, I am not a fan of the British, but I love Richard Branson, and he produced the Sex Pistols, etc. Richard Branson is building a high speed train between Las Vegas and Southern California.

And we need to have good guys in California like Ronald Reagan, Roy Rogers, Walt Disney, and Gene Autry, were. And New York had Frank Sinatra, and the great acting teachers, Uta Hagen, and Sanford Meisner, and Elia Kazan, Lee Strasberg, etc.

My Mother has solar panels out in the desert where the sun shines almost everyday, and she saves a fortune by having solar panels on her roof, and she also has a swimming pool, she loves the desert, and she is saving a lot of money by having solar. 

We need to keep building new high speed trains and subways, etc.

Lots is happening right now here, Mayor Bass just made the State of the City Speech, and then she is going to release her budget. And Billions is being spent here in Anaheim. Plus Newsom is giving tax breaks to producers to film in California, finally. And Universal is doing great right now with the success of "Oppenheimer." Muzi of China needs to do an interview with National Lampoon for Playboy, and Mahlagha Jaberi needs to do a pictorial for Playboy to support improved human rights for the women of Iran, etc.

Tourist season is under way here in Southern California, with lots of money to be made, and the homeless are being helped, and housing is being built, etc.

Salute,

On the issue of Iran, we have been working on missile defense for the last 40 years and we have made a lot of progress, and we can jam and crash the drones, we have shown that we can save lives in Israel from foreign attacks there. So, then we can deal with things in our own way, and in our own time, on our own terms, etc. And we have good leaders at the United Nations.

And Bambu, on the news on television they talked about the criminal there in Australia, and they just said he was a mentally ill guy.

We have made a lot of progress in the Middle East, as Arafat is gone now, and Saddam Husein is gone, and Osama Bin Laden is gone, a lot of bad people are gone now.

And we have the CIA, and we can know what people are doing and who to hold accountable, etc.

We also need to send the Peace Corps into Afghanistan, and into Iraq, etc, and we need to build schools, and we need to educate the women, and we need to feed the hungry, and we can build hospitals, etc. We can do good work that can promote peace in the world. We need to invest in having peace and in raising the level of civilization. And we can work for improved women's rights, and we can educate the people, and they can all read "Animal Farm" by George Orwell, etc. And we can make movies and television shows with meaning to better educate and teach the people of the Middle East, I met a fillmmaker who wanted to make movies in Turkey to be shown in the Middle East, etc, and if you can change how people think and feel then you can change how they behave. And we need to bring back the power of Athens and Rome in the Middle East, with peace and lots of trade, etc, and libraries and schools, etc.

And we need to have peace and friendship with China, and we have Muzi who attended Harvard. Muzi needs to do an interview with National Lampoon to be published in Playboy Magazine. And Mahlagha Jaberi can do a pictorial in Playboy to promote improved human rights for the women of Iran.

Salute,

Today Dr Charles Stanley talked about serving God when we are called. His father died when he was a child and he was raised by a poor single mother, and when he was called by the Lord he ended up being broadcast on television to people all around the world to preach the word of God.

And some thoughts on the violence right now in the Holy Land, it is all so sad. I pray for peace. And we need to send the Peace Corps to Afghanistan, and to Iraq, etc, we need to send in the peaceful groups to improve the level of civilization around the world, with schools, and with food for the hungry, etc. And maybe the United Nations can help to promote peace in the world, and improved human rights, etc.

Meanwhile, for the refugees, Kiwanis International has a village in Victoria, British Columbia, and the forest of Canada is a good safe spot for the refugees.

Blessed are the peacemakers.

Lots of people are talking about having equity in America, and about the benefits of being an American, and I think that providing an education for our people would be a huge benefit, and we can build schools and libraries instead of prisons and welfare housing, as we can teach people healthy parenting skills, and healthy conflict resolution skills, etc, and the people can be taught skills that will help them to gain employment in the 21st Century economy.

We are lucky to have a President who supports providing an education for our people, and we need to seize the day.

Biden wants to give a free college education to all Americans, and I support that, but there are people who are trying to block it, so here are a few thoughts.

We can start by giving a free college education to the orphans, and to the children who do not have fathers and who are being raised by single working Moms. The orphans and the children without Fathers are starting off way behind everyone else, the least we can do is to give them a free college education so they have a chance at a good life.

We also need to train the former coal miners in Kentucky for the jobs of the future, the coal mining jobs are not coming back. And right now 25% of the adults in Kentucky do not even know how to read and write. Certainly everyone would support improving the literacy rate in Kentucky, and to do that we need to educate teachers so that the teachers can teach in Kentucky, etc.

And certainly republicans would support a free education for their children, and for their brothers and sisters and cousins, etc. My Grandfather sent my Mother's Cousin to college to become a Pharmacist, and he now owns a Pharmacy in Fontana, certainly people would support educating their family members, even if they themselves do not want an education.

We are fortunate that Biden wants to educate our people, and we need to look for ways to make that happen. And certainly all parents would like for their children to be able to go to college, we need to look for ways to make it happen.

Salute,

Tony V.

The Prime Minister of Japan is here in Washington DC trying to point a finger at China saying how bad China is, but to be truthful I like China better than I like Japan. And I had a roommate who was the daughter of a Chinese General and I made peace with her. My Apple computer was made in China, and if China is good enough for Apple then China is good enough for me. And we need for China to be on our team because of Putin, we need to be allies with China for world peace. Also of note is that Muzi, the daughter of the President of China attended Harvard.

I love the Philippines, and I love Taiwan, and I made my peace with China, we need for China to be on our team.

And as the workers of China become more affluent then we can sell them exports. Sunkist is exporting to China now, and others can export to China as well.

For the homeless people of Hong Kong, then El Salvador is offering free Citizenship, that would be a great opportunity for people who have no other options.

Peace.

For the people who are moving to Hollywood at this time, then 54% of the modern services economy is streaming services such as films and television shows, so there is a huge demand for content, and also Mayor Bass is working to help the homeless people, her number one priority is to help the homeless people, so there are opportunities to work doing charity work, plus if you need help then help will be available for you. Plus, Disney is going to make the new "Star Wars" movie here in Hollywood, and Universal has been successful with the success of "Oppenheimer" etc. Also, a lot of money is being invested in improving Hollywood Blvd, and also Disney is spending a lot of money in Anaheim. So, right now is a great time for the new people who dream of working in Hollywood to come give it a shot. And if they are looking for a good charity to join to meet new people when they get to California, then I recommend Kiwanis International, I was in Kiwanis for 2 years and it was great.

The President of El Salvador has announced an interesting way to attract more skilled foreign workers to the country: by giving them free citizenship.

https://trib.al/6wyg3uV

-------------

El Salvador would be a good place to send the homeless people from Hong Kong, the poor people of Hong Kong would probably love El Salvador. Anything would be better than perpetual homelessness for them. I am sure they would love El Salvador.

When I lived in Malibu we had a maid from El Salvador, Consuela, she was a wonderful maid and she was great with the kids. She was a Butcher in El Salvador, she could butcher a cow, or a pig, or a goat, or chickens, etc. When she came to Malibu she went to work as our maid, she was a wonderful maid, and there was a family from Brazil who did our yard work and gardening ( we had a huge yard, and a giant rose garden overlooking the Pacific Ocean, and a family from Brazil had done the yard work there for years. ) Anyhow, Consuela would rather be a maid in Malibu instead of a Butcher in El Salvador.

For the poor people from Hong Kong then El Salvador might be a great place to live. And they can organize to make things better.

Salute,

Mark Twain gave some advice that has served me well over the years, and that is to pick my battles and not to lower myself to fighting with swine because passers-by might not be able to tell the difference. In the big city you need to know when to just ignore people and keep walking, some battles are not worth fighting. I have nothing to prove, and I will never see these people again, so sometimes the best thing to do is to just ignore people and keep walking.

Today is a beautiful day, and I was out walking to the post office, and as I was crossing a parking lot this fat lady in an SUV started honking her horn and screaming at me, I have no idea who she was, or why she was screaming and honking, but I just ignored her and kept walking. It is still a beautiful day because I choose to pick my battles wisely, and I am not going to have a screaming match with a crazy fat lady for no reason. Sometimes it is best to just ignore people and keep walking. I will never see her again and she is insignificant. Whatever problem that she was having had nothing to do with me. I am not going to let some crazy fat lady mess up my day. Sometimes the classiest thing to do is to just ignore people and keep walking.

That is good advice for the youth who are moving to Hollywood from small towns and who need to learn to live in the City, is that in the City you need to pick your battles wisely, and not every battle is worth fighting, sometimes the best thing to do is to just ignore people. You can avoid a lot of problems by picking your battles wisely. Sometimes the best thing to do is to just keep on walking.

Salute,

Tony V.

With all of the news of stars getting busted for sexual allegations, then it is important to have Playboy to remind people that sex can still be fun and that love is a wonderful thing, and Playboy also liberates women, including liberating the Persians who are abused in their home country of Iran with strict rules on sexuality. Sex can still be fun and it does not need to lead to lawsuits and time in prison. Universal needs to buy Playboy and they need to bring back the Playboy Channel, and they need to bring in new young geniuses from National Lampoon at Harvard to save Playboy Magazine. Playboy also needs to do an interview of Muzi of China, and they can feature a pictorial of Mahlagha Jaberi to promote improved human rights for the women of Iran.

Salute,

I took a Small Business Management Consulting class in community college, and the Professor, Mr Berry, was a Black man from Compton, California, and Mr Berry was very smart and successful and he knew how to do Business, and he gave back by Mentoring and acting as a Consultant for the poor young Black men in Compton. He helped the poor young Black men in Compton to get a Business Loan from the Small Business Administration, and then he guided them as they became successful entrepreneurs, and then after they succeeded then they all took a trip to Africa together to celebrate. Mr Berry did it all on his own, no one had to tell him to help the poor young Black men in Compton, Mr Berry designed the whole program and he did it all himself, and he created and taught the community college course, etc.

I enjoyed my experiences at the community colleges which I have attended, AVC, and Fullerton Community College, and Biden wants to give a free community college education to all Americans and I support that. I had some wonderful professors in community college. And I am still friends with my Italian professor, along with my favorite acting teacher from the AADA.

As our people become educated then they can help to teach others, and all of humanity can rise. And then we have Americans on Tik Tok with the Chinese, so we can have educated Americans communicating with the Chinese, etc. And our entertainment will improve, etc.

The same way that Mr Berry rose and helped other poor young Black men to rise, then so too can other Americans rise and then give back and help the next guy to step up on the ladder.

Salute,

Tony V.
