Saw a blip on CBS Sunday morning this morning.......writers in Hollywood are worried if

they walk out on strike, their employers will use AI and replace them. A real problem for the writers. Yikes, who ever would have thought this could even be a possibility.

Idea.......I want to see stories of what towns, cities, states, do after total destruction........

ya know…..total destruction from tornadoes, floods, and hurricanes. How do they start completely over. I want to see success, survival, existence, and at least beginnings.

Justice Thomas's friend, Harlan Crow "did not have business before the court"

Justice Clarence Thomas said he was advised he didn’t have to disclose private jet flights and luxury vacations paid for by billionaire Harlan Crow because, although a close friend, Crow “did not have business before the court.”

But in at least one case, Crow did.

Bloomberg reviewed dozens of state and federal cases involving companies that the Crow family has owned or had a financial stake in since Thomas’ 1991 confirmation. Nearly all of these disputes played out at the trial and appellate level and didn’t reach the Supreme Court.

In January 2005, though, the court declined to hear an appeal from an architecture firm that wanted more than $25 million from Trammell Crow Residential Co. for allegedly misusing copyrighted building designs. When the court issued a one-sentence order denying the petition, there were no noted recusals — indicating that Thomas participated — and no noted dissents.
