Orla Joelsen on X : - - - o 0 o - - - I suppose we all here on CofB&F already know that German humor can create havoc, uproars and civil unrest! Germans are just such troublemakers! [<- ] -*John cursing that damn low life ticket selling German TV Show Extra!* HaHa!

Even with a stove with columns on both sides, in Dad f'ing hated it style, it still looks like an awesome place to inhaul a case of aviation gin in good company, and experiencing a tremendous hangover next day! Awesome place, surroundings and views! - - - o 0 o - - - LBOing a LBO!? - - - o 0 o - - - Just: As usual everything Berkshire related nitpicked, drilled down to atomar level, ... - well, almost! -All good!

Awesome!

Yeah, I think the same, Eric [ @cwericb ] and Mike [ @cubsfan ], Mike [ @cubsfan], when was the last time you spent time on updating your self about i.e. European Defence iniatives and spending, all while USA pulling back on participating in securing Europe against the ruler of Russia? Mike [ @cubsfan ], you're anchored seriously in the past, and in need of a thorough update of your internal SQL database! lol! - - - o 0 o - - - Btw., Mike [ @cubsfan], I hope all is well in your end for both your wife and you!

A commentator and reporter on Danish TV2 with deep knowledge and closeintimate relations over time rto the US Embassy eports he thinks this is also about, related to DOGE cutting down Copenhagen US Embassy communication department to about nothing, leaving only those without a functioning brain, no blood circulation in the head, everybody else have already left, having had enough!

Naturally, @73 Reds, But short term, somebody have to do something. Just trying to be a good example for everybody else, in USA, Europe, whereever, and based on hearing about the Save America Movement, in a bold and decisive move earlier today, I decided to donate $1 to the Save America Movement, because of my sincere, heartfelt and thankful appreciation of the movements intiatives, mission, informatioal campain by now in Nuuk, telling the Greenlandic people about 'Americans aren't so'. Because we really have to stand shoulder by shoulder! I also seriously considered buying one share to The Lady of the House and I, respectively, in Grønlandsbanken A/S, GRLA.CPH, but that has run up a lot lately to, mind you, DKK 1.120! Purpose : Alone to keep those shares out of POTUS' reach and grabbing ventures. But that was too steep, too much for stingy John.

More toestepping, condescending US behavior towards the pople of the Danish Realm : Euractiv - News, Politics [January 28th 2026] : US embassy removes flags with names of fallen Danish soldiers Subtitle : Copenhagen's mayor for environmental affairs, Line Barfoed called the move "disrespectful". - - - o 0 o - - - Other Danish news media report, speculate, it was a caretaker, or handyman ordered to do so.Those flowerboxes are placed there by Copenhagen Municipality, owning them and maintaning them, they are placed on the walkway, Copenhagen Municipality soil! Now everybody here is in self-occilating mode, horrified, offended! All Danish news media stirring the pot! Diplomatic suicide attempt by a US Embassy! - Noone can make this up! 'The US Embassy in Copenhagen unfortunately died under a suicide attempt!' Absolutely unsurpassed, unrivalled, unbeaten, unexampled, unequalled, second to none entertainment! The United States of America, please continue behaving like an elephant in a china boutique! More, please!

Eric [ @cwericb ] is always so patient with me and my language issues, this explanation by Sanjeev [ @Parsad ] however is like bending it in neon tubes, so every man can understand it! Great start on my Wednesday!

HaHa! , Awesome entertainment value! , -Can you explain 'hissy fits', btw.? -German preferred, thank you. - All of my dictionaries are giving up on it, don't have clue!

Thank you for sharing, Eric, [ @cwericb ], Now you bring it up, I vaguely recall having read about it long time ago, but had today forgotten about it, totally, I must admit. You and I share feelings and thoughts about an ally expressing imperialistic aspirations at the cost of allies, plus threats, dressed, spiced up with lies and false 'facts', what ever. Personally, I came to the conclusion, that loyality must be a village in Sibiria, and I'm confident, verging to sure, that I've found an error on Wikipedia, which it is my intent to report as soon as possible :

My best guess : More Greenland stuff and Epstein files stuff. - But who knows who get shot until then? But wait! ..., to start talking about next week by now is way, way too long termish! This week just only has begun [Tuesday], it's still young !

An X 'parody'[<-?] 'just stirring the pot' account created this January? [With an avatar that appears to be a good looking lady], so likely a grumpy old male, with a 'I still can't get it get to work, - damn!' track record.] [<- Wasen't that funny?] X is X!

lol! - I think it's time for you - Jeff [ @DooDiligence ], - again to share here on CofB&F, that there exist a wide range of feasible alternatives to getting your own personal snowball rolling, than meticously studying and comparing money managers' doings, writings, sayings, track rerords, styles, modus operandies, to copy. I.e. being an officer on an oil barge operating in the Mexican [now American?] Golf, employed by an oil company, [, likely with a set of 'officers simply [while on barge, off duty], just don't jump subordinate personel [what ever gender!], DEI, old fashion 'non-equal opportunities policies', no hanky-panky among colleques policy' company, you know], again while not on duty, but still on the barge! So, on a barge, off duty, there is not much to do, other than to rest, read, eat and sleep. And when not on barge, but on shore, off duty, with all personal belongings stuffed into a backpack, those not in the backpack, stuffed into a 'paid-for' storelocker somewhere ['living asset light, 'back pack bum''], while not knowing where to sleep the next night [off dury, not-on-barge, on shore] is not a problem, but an opportunity!, towards the gender attracted to! No space for books in the backpack, only space left for 'margin of safety', 'downside protection' [read : condoms], you know! -Reaching owning a nice house, paid for in full, a boat, a car, a stock portfolio, giving the hamster wheel the finger, starting all over again, new education etc.! - at mature age!

DRM News [January 26th 2026] : FULL SPEECH: NATO Boss Rutte Tells Europe to Wake Up, Demands Faster Arms for Ukraine | AC1G Please note : This is Mark Ruttes speech to the European Parliament today. So here Rutte is not talking about what's on his mind in a NATO context. But he is adressing NATO considerations towards EU members. Please remember : Greenland is not an EU member, but a NATO member, because of the Danish Real NATO membership. Ukraine is not a EU member, nor a NATO member.

Also, for the sake of the good cause, I have - in all modesty - to bump this one up: [ Eric @cwericb ]

Just in a wholeheartedly meant effort, try, a stab at loosening up the sentiment and tone in this topic during the weekend just passed, here is KALs Weekly Cartoon in latest edition of The Economist : Please note what's written in lower left and lower right corner, respectively, to get, grasp all the dimensions and levels in the cartoon! -KAL is such a troublemaker, that one can only love him!

Huh?, Mike [ @cubsfan ], I don't know exactly why, I've got the perception you were still in Chicago? -Has something skipped my attention? -Or do I perhaps misread 'moved out of Chicago' above some way? -Or perhaps in Joe Land by now? -Please tell, Mike [ @cubsfan].

@gfp, - Now you just need to complete the weekend with entering the Politics topic, just repeating your 'Ya'all crazy' post from the 'What are you drinking' topic, and my wildest dreams for an entertaining weekend have been fulfilled! The more rock 'n roll, the better!

Thank you for sharing that backgroud information, @73 Reds. - - - o 0 o - - - Personally, I'm 'Made in Germany ©', post WW2.

-And thereby, the basis for the future. It's not more complicated than that.

Danish business News Media Børsen, Sunday digital edition, distributed at 9:00 PM Saturday : Frontpage : Headline 'Investorer undres over bankers mange opjusteringer' translates to English :'Investors are puzzled by banks' many upward adjustments'. Inside pages : - - - o 0 o - - - I personally know both those gentlemen. Jakob Have [p.4] I've mentioned here on CofB&F related Nordfyns Bank [NRDF.CPH], now delisted, merged with Middelfart Sparekasse. Jakob made a killing in a quite short period of time, on that transaction, for him on a material amount of capitlal, me to, on a tiny position. Jens Løgstrup [p. 5] I also know. But not for something good, many years ago, which I don't judge him by today. [I'll elaborate later, if any CofB&F interested.] on p.6. translated to English by '6 upward adjustments of 2025 earnings expectations'. Please give me a break, - sandbagging - great source of progress, if one can spot it, in time!

Thank you for replying here, @gfp. Realizing, I'm actually not entitled to a reply on such question.

- Aren't your personal business setup as RIA of separate accounts for clients [please disregard about directly held real estate here]?

I'm here not commenting on this Minneapolis thingy as such, just confirming here the same observations about coverage, sentiment, it's the same here as Luke [ @Luke ] has reported from Denmarks Southern neigbour, Germany.

How about the US power grid, is it holding up, or are you experiencing outages?
