I LIKE THIS POST VERY MUCH
FOOD FOR THOUGHT
I would like for this to catch on in the States.
My Science Advisor tells me of an AI that wrote a completely fictitious science paper and when asked to prove its findings invented bogus other studies that proved it correct. My advisor said that was the most human thing it could have done.
Notice how all the rungs but the bottom have two grooves - one for each foot. The base was probably mostly eroded by the right first step.

I know it must seem that every picture I see reminds me of a story, but I'm old and I've seen a lot. The wear reminds me of a man who used to come to my bar. He had worked in a local textile mill for 44 years - since he was 15. When he was only a year from retirement they fired him. He told me that he had worked on the same machine for so many years that his feet had worn deep depressions into the floor.
That came without explanation but I think it has to do with people never telling the truth about dead or dying people.
I quit smoking and drinking but I can't seem to force myself to get proper exercise.
As a bartender, I heard every fucking bullshit story to come along and I always asked questions like this: How will we know if you are correct? When do you suppose this will happen? Then I bet them $100 that it won't happen by that date and, of course, they never took my bet even though I used their own criteria.
As a gambler, I remember the time President Nixon was ousted because people simply can't keep their mouths shut. There are simply no such things as secrets anymore. And I'll bet you money I'm right. If you think you know something that nobody else knows, tell me about it, answer a few questions, and we'll make a wager.
People never really mention that Willy Wonka just handed Charlie the deed to a factory that's about to be hit with a handful of wrongful death lawsuits.
I used to think I was the bigger man for not holding a grudge but now I realize I just don't remember what happened.
GET LEARNT
The Sun is the most perfect sphere ever observed in nature.
I assume that means all stars.
My generation was the last to have to shine their boots.
Did you know that they have different soles for different terrain?
The boots that worked well on Iraq's soil were chewed to pieces on Afghanistan's jagged rocks.
In 2009, a New Jersey woman named Patricia DeMauro rolled a pair of dice 154 times continuously at a craps table without losing. Her 154-roll winning streak broke world records. The probability of this occurring was roughly 1 in 5.6 billion.
Dr. Seuss wrote The Cat in the Hat to help combat illiteracy. 348 words were identified as important to first-graders, which he was asked to narrow down to 250. Nine months later, Seuss used 236 of them to complete The Cat in the Hat.
In 1971, someone in Pennsylvania tried to sue Satan for having “threatened him, caused him misery, impeded his life course, and generally precipitated his downfall.” The case was dismissed, partly because it couldn’t be shown that Satan lived in the court’s jurisdiction.
Pressure
I've browsed my comments "Awaiting moderation" and found dozens of rather recent comments I don't even remember reading. If I do not post your comment, please don't think it is always because I don't like it. There is a glitch and I don't know how to mitigate it.
I have gotten dozens of comments that say things like "You are wrong about everything". Then I ask them to pick one thing and we will discuss it and they never do. Do you want to talk about banning books? Let's get it on. Trans people being a danger to the republic? Let's go. Banning all abortions? I'm ready. But stop commenting like a child because it is getting tiresome.
Thanks to the dozens of you who are kind decent human beings.

When I said I'm open for a good debate I met with people who have the same beliefs as I do.

I don't even understand what is happening in this clip but it has to do with water so it had to be included.
Legally, no one in movies should be allowed to say, "This isn't a movie".
People keep mistaking my "Wows" for compliments.
FOR AMUSEMENT ONLY
All the women named Karen nowadays remind me of how the name Munson was used in the movie Ten Pins. But then I got to thinking that Ralph means to vomit, Jack means to masturbate, John is a bathroom, Joe is average, and then, of course, there is Dick, Johnson, Willy, etc.

That's about how old he was when he visited with us on my deck until 4am.
Cop Stop
If you think you are hungry you might just be thirsty. Have a bottle of wine first and then see how you feel.
No wonder people are such suckers for pyramid schemes because grade school taught us that if you sold $200 worth of stuff you’d get a free jump rope and we just thought that was the best deal.
WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT
At this stage of my addiction, I simply can't stop looking for them.
And...
Looks like a Heart of Stone to me.
A rug, carved into the wooden floorboards.
Wow. I bet they hated to move.
This runway in the middle of a neighborhood has homes all along it with their own hangers.
My wife and I passed that very thing on one of our road trips.
I would think the people in the middle would have the advantage because there is less acreage to cover.
Caught in a severe downdraft?
She's watching childbirth.
I know the feeling well.

A6: it's about adults being selfish, and as we get older that selfishness fades away.
The selfishness is learned, or acquired over time, and the young child in the image has not yet acquired that selfishness.
The elder, who is waiting to die, has more in common with the young child than any other family member in the room, and that connection is embraced with a holding of a hand.
Puzzle Time:
Answer: The correct answer is C.
If you see the legs of person B, there is vibration in the water. This makes us sure that person B is not dead.
Many will say that the person “A” is dead as his body is floating in the water. But the question is do dead bodies float in water?. The answer is yes, but it takes at least 2 to 3 days for a dead body to float. In the starting 1 to 2 days, a dead body sinks under the water, thereafter it starts floating. Thus, person A is not dead as it doesn’t make any sense for 2 people (B & C) to come to the pool to chill out with a dead body floating in it.
Finally, let’s have a look at Person C. If you see closely, the person is having a book in his hand and it is in the water. Also, he seems to be in a subconscious state.
Dear Gentle Readers,
That is how you explain a solution to a puzzle. Thanks for the explanation.
