PONDERABLES


Henry Fonda, Cardinale, director Sergio Leone, Charles Bronson and Jason Robards

I thought that a most wonderful movie with an awful title.

^^A1^^

“I’ll say gay if I fucking want!”

^^A2^^

My mother was a wonderful person but she wasn't all that smart. I loved her dearly but at a young age, I knew dinosaurs didn't exist alongside humans. Think for yourself...please.

Here is an extreme example of what happens when you don't think for yourself. Please watch it.

-sound on-

^^A3^^

^^A4^^

^^A5^^

^^A6^^

^^A7^^

Based on actual actions taken, the Democrats don't seem to want to govern. If the senate made up the filibuster they can un-make it up.

^^A8^^

Just another example of how easily language morphs.

^^A9^^

^^A10^^

Can't we all just agree how batshit crazy that is?

^^A11^^

Greek Mythology in a Nutshell

Zeus: I'm going to put my dick in it.

Everyone: Don't put your dick in it.

Zeus: Too late.

The fact that I procrastinate and still get the job done is the reason I still procrastinate.

FUN WITH LANGUAGE


^^B1^^

^^B2^^

Here is one guy's answer:

I would have written: E=mc² next to a mushroom cloud.

^^B3^^

^^B4^^

^^B5^^

*I have no idea what that means.

^^B6^^

How I imagine the parents naming some of my students...

Lutherique pronounced Lequintheous.

^^B7^^

*Note the date.

^^B8^^

^^B9^^

Apparently, the homeowners association has issues with his new vinyl siding.

(Insert mandatory moans here)

^^B10^^

My biggest fear is slipping in the shower and somebody finding my naked body.

My wife stopped drinking but she still puts tequila in the humidifier for the ambiance.

OBJECTS OF INTEREST


^^C1^^

^^C2^^

^^C3^^

An airless sprayer is a great tool but you can't use it like that on brick, block, or other textured walls. You have to move your whole arm to keep the gun shooting straight in or you will get a "shadow".

^^C4^^

I look at that and give it two weeks before it malfunctions.

^^C5^^

We are used to competitors foiling the other's efforts...

But this is just sad...

^^C6^^

2200-YEAR-OLD MOSAICS (ancient Greek floor mosaic), in the Turkish city of Zeugma, located in modern Gaziantep Province, southern Turkey.

The colorful mosaics were integral parts of homes thousands of years ago. Depicting various mythological figures such as gods, goddesses, and ancient heroes, the mosaics were installed in a room so that guests could admire them while chatting and drinking. The nine Muses, are the goddesses of the inspiration of literature, science, and the arts. For several centuries, the town of Zeugma served as one of the most important centers of the Eastern Roman Empire. So these works of art are a very important aspect of the town’s history.

^^C7^^

^^C8^^

I would have named it the Superman Bird.

^^C9^^

My medical doctor's husband worked on Hubble. She told me that they moved the whole imaging team over to Webb.

^^C10^^

First time I've seen this actually used in these car chases, but I don't know how often they use it in the USA.

^^C11^^

Yeah, I'm nervous. Many men's wives watch murder documentaries but mine takes notes.

How long does a cat hold a grudge? Asking for a friend.

LITTLE PICTURE STORIES


That is my example of a faked video. I try to avoid them but in the event one sneaks in I apologize beforehand.

^^D1^^

One simple procedure and now I'm well again. Thanks to all those people who decided to go to college.

^^D2^^

"First time anal?"

^^D3^^




^^D4^^

^^D5^^

^^D6^^

I almost put this in this post:

The best part about getting old is...NOTHING. Getting old sucks.

But that is the total opposite of how I feel. I am so thankful that I have lived this long that I cherish every day.

^^D7^^

^^D8^^

^^D9^^

*I so love the absurd.

^^D10^^

^^D11^^

The Proposal

^^D12^^

I am fearful that this won't load properly so I have loaded it twice. Enjoy.


^^D13^^

1. It's compulsory by law. Gov pays 70% and your health insurance is to cover the remaining 30%. If you doon't have insurance you are liable for 100% unless you're poor living on subsidies.

4. They also live healthier, their food is healthier, they walk & cycle to get around. How often does one see a fat Japanese person?

Reading this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_care_system_in_Japan they seem to be doing a very good job.

They're just pandering to the social media echo chamber, the amplified views of 2% of the population.

MIKE HARRIS said...

"Think for yourself...please." Which is the precise opposite to what you do every day in your blog...

David said...

I wish I was as woke as Mike Harris. He thinks that "think for yourself"means "think like me".

My turn:
You hit the nail on the head all our politicians are bought and paid for.
(Where else can you make 174,000 a year and still bank 1.5 million)

You're not going to like my solution.

Trump should not run again, he is too divisive. He should however, go to every state and find someone who would support a specific platform.

1. Ban lobbying completely.
2. Put an age limit on members of congress. I'm thinking 58. Full retirement
age is 67. We shouldn't be governed by people that should be in rocking
chairs.
3. If we still have to use private insurance put a dollar limit on how much an
individual would have to pay. Say 5% of gross income.

This is just my start, add your own.

Agree with Harris 100%

They should all retired at 65, anybody in public office. The same goes for judges, that thing you guys have where judges sit until they die is bs.

A8: Biden is desperate. He wants to use my and my fellows citizens savings to buy midterm votes. Rewarding people who do not honor their financial commitments by taxing people who do is simply wrong and will create a huge wave of resentment. A majority of these college freeloaders would vote for his party anyway. It will back fire on him horribly and he and his party are to dim to realize it. My suggestion is that the freeloaders smoke as it is said that every cigarette will take 7 minutes off their student loan debt.
