And on Drudge I see we now have scientific proof that men and women are different. -WalrusRex
Did they test people in long-term relationships? Because, after 40-some years together the Mrs seems more alien to me than ever! (And I to her, surely.)
"Men and women are, for all intents and purposes, separate species existing side-by-side." (memquoting some old book)
That said, here's a funny pic c/o Pistol Pete, the Vic on PoliNation blog (every good blog needs one).

That was what I wondered about when Chavez Jr promised a plasma tv in every pot.

Did I see Mike Hammer? I have a note here to say, thanks for the fox scream vid link, past thread.
Here's a picture of Vilma Bànky as she starred in 1925s The Eagle: http://tinyurl.com/p2bz9tm
She seems to be thinking, does this hat make me look silly?
Yay! Poppins Hollyweirdness. ((refreshes coffee, settles back to read))...
It was a chill, foggy twilight. The house was dark, quiet... a little too quiet.
Suddenly, from the kitchen, two beeps rang out. Coffee's Ready!
The gloom began to lift....
G'morning, folks. May your day treat you well.
Y'all c'mon down to Billy Jay Ray Bob's Empire of Ammo where we've got a midwinter special
that can't be beat.
We will, for a limited time only, allow you access to our fine, high-quality 3D printers, and ginormous library of patterns.
You come in, choose your pattern, print any li'l thing you choose, from a tiny earring to parts for a tank, we don't care, we aren't doing it, you're doing it! It's your God-given right to information, and whatever you want to do with it.
You pay only for printer time and materials, plus a small additional fee, for Billy Jay Ray Bob's retirement fund.
And when you're done at Billy Jay Ray Bob's, be sure to enroll next door at Larry's Lead Smeltin' Lernin' Center --"an educational facility."
Sorry for your trouble, MWW. -FenelonSpoke
Thank you, FS. I am okay. I've certainly survived far worse. Wounding does reinforce the awareness of our fragility and mortality.
It's a nice world to pass through, but I don't think I'll make it my permanent residence!

Nah, the dump was up already.

Not when I started composing. So, that counts.
Friday, lunch, chomped on a corn chip and realized the hard bit was a piece of tooth. A big chunk of a tooth the dentist had drilled & filled just days before.
That was annoying. Then I felt the broken tooth.
Discussions here have mentioned how one fellow can take several mortal hits and keep coming, while others with non-fatal wounds die from shock. I believe the latter. I felt that hole in my tooth and passed out from hard shock.
Took me a long time to wake up. When I did, finally, I realized I'd pissed myself, and even better in waking up I had flailed about and smashed a toe into my desk. Prob broken, prob lose the nail.
Pity the Mrs who had to watch me in all that.
Know why I'm so happy? 1. It didn't happen during Thanksgiving. 2. I live in the age of modern dentistry where I'll get maybe a nice crown that will last me the rest of my life. Can't imagine walking around with broken teeth like much of humanity historically probably has had to do.

However, I am tired of ... your slanted view of the subject. .... Simply put, the Civil War happened because the South acted like a bunch of children ... -Chris
Glad Vic is the only one with a slanted view.
That was a stupid and gratuitous insult, Vic. General Washington and the rest of the founding fathers weren't trying to depose King George either. That doesn't mean it wasn't a revolutionary war.

Let's you & him fight. - Wimpy
I for one have never heard the recent unpleasantness referred to by anyone as a revolution. Gabe adds new meanings to our vocabulary because he's a giver.

Let's not rehash the American Civil War. Please.

Um, you haven't been around AoSHQ long/much? Wars get rehashed frequently here. With my erratic history knowledge, I appreciate the education.
More indications that we are headed into a mini-ice age -Vic
"Mini" -- maybe for short term, but if they haven't changed geologic records since I was in college, chances are strong that we're still on the cooling side of the 25,000-year ice ages cycle, so expect those 'mini' down spells to never quite warm back up as much for a few generations....

Good morning, children of the Revolution.
What's with all that verbiage in the post?
The "rule" is, I think, half your age plus five? Or seven? Something like that... : Jenny Hates Her Phone
Yeah, something like that. 16/2+7=15. 34/2+7=24.
If I wasn't happily married I could date... 38 year olds? Well (shrug) they'd still be under 40....
Somebody remember the French(?) 'rule' on dating age, someone commented on here a while back?
Why can't I remember everything?
Good evening, clan.
Nice ONT, NDH. ((JOKE))
