Innovex CEO Letter to North Face

 I wanted to share this letter because it emphasizes the necessity and greatness of oil & gas. This letter was written by Adam Anderson, CEO of Innovex Downhole Solutions - an oil and gas company. When looking to buy North Face jackets for his employees as a gift, North Face said they would not sell to an oil and gas company.

This is an all around good letter that sets the standard of human flourishing and energy needs that lead to that.

Island of Bryan Solar Panel Numbers are Horribly Misleading

Who doesn't want to be all sustainable and oh so environmentally friendly? I was watching the show and they brought down their 'friend' to help them get some solar panels on their resort. By friend, they mean some strategic business partnership to advertise the business, but that's not what I'm here to talk about - even though if this was an oil company 'friend' then all the numbers would be instantly scrutinized by default. Not in this case. And it just annoys me at how sloppy, misleading and downright fraudulent the way the solar crew present numbers. Here's how things were presented on the show: This is an island in the Bahamas which uses a diesel generator for electricity.  Diesel is dirty. The cost of this electricity is 35 cents/kWh. Solar is only 5 cents/kWh. Solar is obviously clean. Pays itself back in three years. When things are presented like this it only make sense to do solar right? It's drastically cheaper. It's cleaner. It's j...

The West is Weak: Russia Invades Ukraine

 I haven't been writing a lot lately on this blog, but I felt the need to sign in and write about this. I've found myself feeling a bit depressed about the invasion of Ukraine - not because it happened, but due to how the west will predictably react to it. There will be a lot of talk, strong words, and even stronger rhetoric, but when the actual words become policy - it will be pathetically weak. There are people out there that seem to think or at least try to force the narrative of a simple dichotomy: either we accept Putin is doing it or it's WW3. Any normal person would find the choices here to be nauseating either way. If history is to serve a lesson, the first option often leads to the second option. But this dichotomy really illustrates the parameter that most people don't pick up on. The West is Morally Weak The facts are on the ground. The United States has the largest armed forces in human existence. A coalition of western powers is devastatingly more powerful ...

The Power of the Dog is Awful

I'm trying to post more personal things to this blog and I thought after what I finished watching last night - this was a good post to start. I often think that there is something wrong with me; like a horrible cynic. I like to watch entertaining movies and television, but everything I find lately is just awful. And it's almost like this never-ending cycle of bad to worse. It's not like I'm just watching straight to video movies or anything, I'm watching highly awarded and often praised as the hot thing on Netflix. Last night I watched The Power of the Dog (2021) . A highly regarded movie with a lot of nominations for various awards and I've heard a lot of talk about it - so I watch it. I don't want to spoil the movie for you, but absolutely nothing happens in this movie. There is a point in a movie where you just keep watching to see if anything happens and determine what exactly your time accomplished. Well, I can let you know that watching to the end will...
