My harrowing tale about buying a costly mattress that finishes with a very happy ending and lets me enjoy some of the best sleep I’ve had in years.

Delta’s $34M Ed Bastian Isn’t Ready When You Are
Sharing some thoughts I’m confident will be of interest to thousands of disgruntled Delta customers stranded at airports around the world or waiting on hold for hours praying someone will help them.
Donald Trump’s Snake Oil Chinese Auto Tariffs
The establishment media would be wise to take a break from likening Trump to Hitler and Mussolini and expose his half-baked and harmful tariff positions, particularly with regards to Chinese-made electric vehicles. The policy would harm Toyota, Honda, and VW, America’s MAGA automotive manufacturers.
President Biden and the Nuclear Codes
Why I’ve lost faith in the U.S. government’s ability to protect America.
On Seeing Some Good in Walmart’s Evil
Like many Americans, I long viewed Walmart as pure evil. Under the decade-long leadership of CEO Doug McMillon, the company has undergone considerable reform. Comparatively speaking, McMillon deserved the $27 million he was paid last year.

Ford University: Higher Ed for Auto Sales & Service
Determining how best to harness and apply AI is all the rage these days, and CEOs are paid the big bucks because of their supposedly superior smarts to figure it out. At Ford, whose CEO Jim Farley received more than $60 million in compensation these past three years, the company plans to use AI to create Hollywood quality “edutainment” videos that it hopes will steal viewers from Netflix and Amazon and bolster the sales and service capabilities of its dealerships.
