Ones Of My Very Own
FOOD FOR THOUGHT
The average person speaks about 16K words a year so it could get ugly pretty damn quick.
One of the strangest things I've ever heard from a smart person was the scientist explaining that if an extinction event asteroid was headed toward Earth and we tried to blow up but only blew it into pieces we could make our problem worse.
Yeah, like what could possibly be worse than an extinction event?
I wish I was young enough to explore abandoned buildings with a camera. Now I have trouble with a few stairs.
It dismays me that so many people spend their whole lives trying to look and think just like their neighbors. "Don't do anything odd" is their mantra.
There is much talk about teaching being a "calling". I became a teacher because of how I looked up to the teachers who really made a difference in my life, and I wanted my students to feel that way about me.
Nothing I have ever done has made me as proud as I was when my daughter was awarded her Ph.D.
Believe it or not, that sort of a segue to the next section.
"Quiet quitting" is out.
"Acting your wage" is in.
I am dismayed that the sentence "Mummies are so rare because we ate them" is factual.
THINGS I WAS TOLD WERE FACTUAL
I read that an aircraft carrier gets 40 tons of new paint a year. But there was no word on how much old paint was scraped off.
I wrote a novel about a cat that did that.
Speaking of...
It's the perfect time to get lost in the woods and change my name to something the wolves can pronounce.
Took the batteries out of the smoke detector for the TV remote because I’d rather suffocate & burn to death beyond recognition in my sleep than get up to change the channel.
WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT
How could they not show them sipping it?
Whenever I'm driving with anyone and see something numbered like that I say something like: "Manhole No. 5 ought to be near here" and then I look away from it waiting for them to say, "There it is!" I have done it a thousand times.

If find the superb safety record of air travel extraordinary.
All of the comments suggested that sand was artificially embedded in the oyster to produce the pearls. I thought they embedded plastic balls and only had to wait for a few layers of pearl to be applied to them.
I don’t want to be a boss. I want to be the old groundskeeper who warns guests there’s something terribly wrong with the estate and then leaves in a hurry before sundown.
Do you ever think about how many people squeezed the avocado that you’re eating?
HUMAN BEHAVIOR
That reminds me of taking a jumbo framing hammer to a deck building and driving twice the number of nails as the younger guys.
If that had been me, I wouldn't have stopped running until I got home to that bottle of wine I'd been saving for a very special occasion.
You get the hose again?
I found that delightful.

As soon as humans began to live in large organized groups, questions were asked that had no answer - like what happens to us after we die. So, they just made stuff up. Humans are really good at making stuff up. That's why there are thousands of religions that have all claimed to know the answer but it's just made up.
And talk like this scares the shit out of me.

This shit just gets better honorary degrees and the Order of Canada bestowed on another Waffen SS nazi.
They've known about all these nazis for many years, there's a list of about 2000 names the gov have kept secret and not released.
Years ago I sent you this on a similar topic. Why cry thy slyly wry gypsy rhythms by my crypt?

I'm all in favour of a bigger, higher, longer wall and more border agents.
Senile Joe made the whole situation worse. His campaign promise was not a foot more and now many of the virtue signaling hypocrites are flipflopping because it now became their problem and not just a border state issue which they were happy with at the time.
Dear Border Guy,
You didn't answer the question.
