To the moon, troll, to the moon!

[CHR]

During the cold war, JFK claimed to have gone to the moon. He got congress to spend billions on his moon landing and pretended america landed there, convincing congress to give him billions, the fakeness of the landing is well documented.

It seems to me that this liberal moneybags, that he took these billions for personal use, or maybe gave them to the USSR (we all know he was soft on communism)

Perhaps his death was similarly staged in order to keep his billions or keep congress of his case.

I wonder if under an obama administration we will see more moon landings.

Is anyone here?

"Is anyone here?"

Depends on who's asking. How much do I owe ya?

[sionnsar]

LOL! Been a bit quiet lately...

[NicknamedBob]

"Great-grandchild... wow."

If current trends hold, my first great grandchild should arrive in 2070.

[sionnsar]

Maybe a good thing 'Face is away: Winter storm warning for Las Vegas, 6 inches of snow possible

[sionnsar]

Me too, I think.

[NicknamedBob]

"Been a bit quiet lately..."

I've been pursuing, and I'm being pursued by, literary pursuits.

[sionnsar]

I was tempted, but that 5000-character magazine article can wait.

[NicknamedBob]

5000 characters?

Just work in supercalifragilisticexpialidocious about a hundred times.

[sionnsar]

LOL. I’m sure the Germans would love that.

[sionnsar]

Very interesting. According to Google (Language Tools), in German "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" is: supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

Did you think it would be anything else? *\;-)

[NicknamedBob]

Might have to sprinkle in some umlauts.

Süpërcälifrägilisticëxpiälidöciöüs.

[sionnsar]

No i-umlauts?

[NicknamedBob]

I think it’s a semi-umlaut.

[NicknamedBob]

I wouldn't want to be ïnïtïatïng a trend.

[ThomasThomas]

The umlaut is a letter modified by a diacritic which consists of a pair of dots or lines placed over a letter. When the vowel is an i, the diacritic replaces the tittle. A very similar diacritic is the diaeresis (or trema), and a distinction between them is not always made.

[ThomasThomas]

I always thought the umlaut was the doohicky over the letter.

Doesn’t trema cause your eye to twitch?

[NicknamedBob]

In Caleefornia, temblors cause everyone to twitch.

She weighs about 60 lbs. DP lifts weights! She’s trained to be still if she’s picked up correctly, so it’s carrying a dead weight. Bill might be able to lift her, but I wouldn’t try it. I pick 40 lbs. of James or Pat up sometimes, but I don’t carry them up the stairs! Vlad weighs 34, though, and I carry him around all the time.

Edra is the same age as my father, 72. A number of her grandchildren are older than my kids, though - well on in their 20’s. Anoreth’s old enough to have children, but she has more sense. It would be different, of course, if she were 25 and married!
