On This Day Today: 1955
On this day today in 1955, Cardiff is proclaimed the capital of Wales in the United Kingdom.
I always liked traveling to Cardiff. It was a stop on pretty much every UK tour itinerary. Great, fresh and young music scene- not too hard considered it’s a university town. One of the last tours I managed ended with a massive drive back from Cardiff, via Dover-Calais and all the way back to...

On this day today in 1944 during the Battle of the Bulge and in an event called Malmedy massacre, 84 American POW’s were murdered by members of Kampfgruppe Peiper, a combat unit of the 1st SS Panzer Division.
Compared to the distance between my home town Eupen and Foy (see post from two days ago), the massacre occured near the town Malmédy, which is even closer to my Eupen, only 30...

On this Day Today: 1944
On this day today (my bad, it was the 16th) in 1944, the Germans launched a counter-offensive against the Western Allies in Belgium. After the 101st Airborne was moved by truck to the Bastogne area on December 18. Richard Winters took part in the defense of the line northeast of Bastogne near the town of Foy during what became known as the Battle of the Bulge.
The entire 101st Airborne and...
Watchbrycedotvc:
I had a post all tee’d up for today. Then I watched this video.
When one of the greatest venture investors of the last decade speaks this candidly, I think its worth taking the time to listen. Fred is in fine form here and covers a range of different topics. But, if you want to see what makes Fred special as an investor, hold on for the last two minutes of the video. He goes from...
