One Of My Very Own

My wife thought that “swearing-in” meant Joe Biden was going to stand at a podium on Wednesday and reel off all the curse words he knows. She’s understandably a little disappointed now.
I was in an antique shop one time and found an old photograph of my doppelgänger. Everyone in the store agreed it looked just like me. I offered to buy it but the elaborate frame was just too expensive. I offered to buy just the photo. The owner asked me how much money I had and I said $5. And he let me buy it for that. I still have it.

An avid viewer of FO sent me this...
In the paintings of murals, I excelled in quality and I was lightning fast. But I was not cheap.
Talk about your cultural appropriation...
The daily demonstrations of human stupid astound me. I just learned that there is heavy misinformation on Facebook warning pregnant women not to get vaccinated. All this with no evidence whatsoever.
There are people who think there is just nothing we can do about this problem. I disagree. But don't get me wrong...I don't know the solution. But I would like all of us to work on finding one.
Believe it or not, I have given this a great deal of thought. I used to play games with my daughters where we communicated with grunts - usually coming from the nose with the mouth shut.
"Huh-uh" meaning yes is an example but there are many more.
Try to make nose sounds for:
I don't know.
Wow.
What?
Boy oh boy.
No.
Fauci and others no longer discuss herd immunity. "It's off the table".
"The problem? It's not that herd immunity wouldn't work, but rather that around 25% of Americans just don't want to get vaccinated."
That is terrifying.

My wife was so high she went to target because why not. She reached for some cookie dough and so did someone else at the same time. She said, “Sorry you can go ahead” to only realize she had just seen her own arm in the mirror and apologized to herself. She wisely decided to go home.

Bookshelf Toy Box Update
I begun to artificially age some of the "books".
An interesting thing happened. I counted from my list how many more titles I had to turn into "books" then I counted the remaining pieces of wood (which I call book blanks). I had 13 remaining titles and EXACTLY 13 blanks. At no time prior had I counted either.
My magnificent award-winning oak tree is technically on the city right of way so they sent a tree company out to trim it. And it looks great!
I find it interesting that in most of the animal world it is the male who displays to attract females but in humans, it's the female that does almost all the displaying.
Let me repeat my profound confusion over these forest animals growing huge antlers that MUST hinder escaping a predator.

I always think about how many things have to go right before this can occur. I mean it's got like a million parts!

How...accommodating.
This tiny little backup battery packs enough punch to jumpstart a car.
The many-headed hydra is a real creature that regenerates itself and can live "forever".
Cut a hydra in half and within a few days, the bottom half will grow a new head. The severed head grows a new body. The secret to the hydra's ability to heal and its seeming ability to not age is the abundance of stem cells that make up the hydra's tube-shaped body column.
They even pureed it and it grew back into an organism just like the original.
This snake looks like it just escaped Shawshank...

I'm thinking the irregularities in the structure broke up the light rays.

PEOPLE BEHAVING ODDLY
I think that's a case of her hitting the accelerator when she meant to hit the brakes.
Watch carefully...
That's why it's called practice.

Fuck the CCP.
I like it.

The way we deploy satellites is pretty much just throwing them into space, after calculating the specific orbit needed. However, almost all these deployments are done mechanically, from a rocket launch. At the very end of the 20th century, the Russians developed a method that appeared much simpler -tossing them into orbit by hand.
After much struggle - this...

Second digit minus first digit = last digit.
Then check by third digit plus last digit = first digit.
A7: it's not just for pregnant women, but they're saying it's also for any woman who ever wants to get pregnant. They're saying if you get vaccinated it will cause infertility. I weep for the future.
