OBSERVATION FROM YOUR HOST


There is no higher calling for a human being than becoming a mother or a father. And I mean that.
I have heard many a young man and woman tell me that they never wanted children but with the birth of their child they all told me they can't imagine living without it. A child transcends all other concerns.

And, as a parent, I would never ever allow this.

But there is a limit.
I am of the old school which states no child should be brought into a home that can't afford to even feed it.
^^A1^^

^^A2^^

How depressing on multiple levels.
I know a man who does a lot of hiring and when he finds out an applicant has on online degree he throws it out immediately. I'm not saying it's right - I'm saying it's true.
^^A3^^

When I got older I just wanted justice and fairplay for everyone. 
^^A4^^

^^A5^^

^^A6^^

Every day Americans are showing the world just how awful our educational system is.
^^A7^^

Just like abortion you fucktard.

I advocate tying stimulus checks to vaccines. Sorry, but if you refuse to make life better for everyone then you shouldn't get our money.

^^A8^^

Imagine, as well, that this is a country with the biggest economy and considers itself as an example to other countries.

^^A9^^


This is a real eye-opener...
^^A10^^

As an idiot I trust expert's facts more than 
the opinions of some guy on the internet.
The difference between scientific fact and lay opinion is that when I say "Prove it" the scientist actually can.
But due to Trump, deniers in America are winning.

Of course religion has been the trailing edge for...oh...ever.

^^A11^^

To illustrate the difference between my wife and I let's look at her lamenting the toil required to fill up her daily medicine container while I am thrilled that I have the medicines to keep me healthy.

^^A12^^

I watched Christmas Vacation again this year.

"Guess what, kids. An airline pilot just spotted Santa flying over New Jersey on the way here."


Now it's on a T-shirt
^^A13^^

I don't want this section to devolve into politics, but I've always wondered how Trump supporters deal with his inability to tell the truth. Do they only listen to Fox News therefore are unaware of the lies? What about the Mexico will pay for the wall campaign slogan when he KNEW Mexico would not pay for the wall.
Do they pass it off as They all do it? Does their fanaticism blind them to the documented myriad of lies? Just curious.
^^A14^^

I really like people solving my Puzzle Time posers. You should know that I do not know the answer to most of the puzzles.
Here is an example of how to properly solve the puzzle:
He is speaking from the date of January 1st and when he is 26. That same year, he will turn 27. I think the tricky part is interpreting "the next year I will be 28". This will be in the year AFTER he is speaking on Jan 1.

Many people would just comment "Jan.1" which, when you think of it, isn't all that helpful.

With that said I made a fortune making bets during the week between Christmas and New Years when I would mention "Last year's Rose Bowl". The game is played on Jan.1 so even on Dec.30 the last year's game was damn near two years ago.
^^A15^^

I act like I'm effectively dealing with the stress of isolation but even I can see some chinks in my emotional armor. I just hope all of you have an isolation mate as wonderful as mine. A normal woman would have divorced me by now.
^^A16^^

I never was a big fan of large social gatherings anyway.
^^A17^^

Why did we do that? I mean, it's the easiest problem to solve - tissues, paper towels, newspaper, and/or even leaves.
But there is no substitute for high protein food.
^^A18^^

^^A19^^

I can understand needing a little buzz to make it through this shitshow but don't let it get control of you. I was a (highly) functioning alcoholic for 50 years and even I am on a strict alcohol diet.
^^A20^^

If only 40% of us take the vaccine then we aren't beating this thing anytime soon.
^^A21^^

Fuck Christmas.
^^A22^^

Doctor: I'm going to have to amputate above the knee.

Me: But I can't survive if I'm only a leg!

That took me much longer than it should have.

TODAY'S SILLINESS


Looks like it learned that from watching my wife dance.
^^B1^^

^^B2^^

Woodstock Festival, 1969

The sheer amount of hand jobs being conducted in this image is staggering.

^^B3^^

That reminds me of a high school friend who was fucking this girl in the backseat of his car with both doors open and halfway through he had to throw up. So he just pushed her head down, lifted himself up, and threw up over her head out the door and never missed a stroke!
^^B4^^

All fun and games until the Roomba summons a demon.

^^B5^^

I've often said that if we got Medicare for all there would be millions of people quitting jobs they hate and only stay there for the insurance.
^^B6^^

Is this called Passive Aggressive?

Being happily married is like having a sleepover with your best friend every night for the rest of your life.

(I agree)

GET LEARNT


How bumblebees squeeze through small spaces when dodging branches and shrubs

^^C1^^

^^C2^^

As I understand it, there is one of those on Mount Everest.
^^C3^^

These are crinoid fossils, commonly referred to as sea lilies. They are echinoderms related to starfish, sea urchins, and brittle stars.

^^C4^^

That's amazing.
^^C5^^

I do that also.

I coached my daughter's soccer team because it's important that she learn I swear at other kids too.

THAT WHICH IS SELDOM SEEN


^^D1^^

There's a Eat Shit joke in there someplace.
^^D2^^

I may have shown you that before, but that thing is gigantic! And it is born with an urge to pull shit.
^^D3^^





^^D4^^

^^D5^^

^^D6^^

They go OVER the nose!
^^D7^^

And...
^^D8^^

That looks about 45 degrees to me. That means if you jump at 10K feet you ought to glide for about two miles.
^^D9^^

Speaking of doing crazy shit in the sky...

THINGS I FIND ODD
IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER

Unites States covid death toll Visualized with coffins and the White House.

I find it odd that almost half the voters in this country still call that "winning".

I find it odd that Trump's FBI, CIA, Homeland Security, etc can't find any evidence of the "vast conspiracy" of fraud. And even "his" Supreme Court won't touch it.

OUCH!


I find it odd that we seem unable or unwilling to follow the lead of other countries who solve problems better than us.

If you only read one article this week, let it be the rest of this one.

The acceptance of a pardon is an admission of guilt.
Write that shit down...it's important.
