'Cause the science has settled. Or is it 'is settled'? Or 'is being invented as we speak'? Or 'will be settled after you pour more of your tax money into our pockets'?
It's all so confusing.. ;-)

I just re-joined FR and I would like to post to my local NC state board but I am not able to. How do I get the ability to do that?
Close enough. Ten years, give or take.
Time Is GivenHere my last day before I cross, a magic, mystic river,
You want more time? Here, have some more,
Time rolls by so lazily, so generous a giver.
Take all that you may choose, and care not for,
The ways that you may use. It is a gift.
It’s yours to do with as you may,
No green-eyeshaded clerk will sift,
And sort reports about your day.
Time is given, like sunshine, unending in its glory,
Expanding all around you everywhere.
As you work to write your story,
Be sure to contemplate your words with care.
An ocean of time has flowed by me,
The source seems just as fresh.
I’ve loved the dance and company,
And other pleasures of the flesh.
I have enjoyed the quiet times.
I’ve read ten thousand books,
And music that’s wrapped up in rhymes,
And treasured sultry looks.
The gift of time that I have had,
Is like a tool of sorts,
So carefully the good and bad,
I put in my reports.
I know you’ve read them, and enjoyed,
My childlike glee to write them.
Despite the skill I have employed,
Don’t ask me to recite them.
They stretch back like the days gone past,
In all the varied ways I trod,
I did not think they long would last,
But I have marked the trail I plod.
Tomorrow starts another trail,
Adventure waits once more.
I think I’ll find myself a sail,
When I reach the final shore.

So you’re saying it will be a clear night, but it might get cold, (which it does at this same time every year).
Are they going to name the clear night cooling possibility?
“It’s Hector! Hector is coming! Hector has your vector! ...
... but don’t panic! Just stay tuned.”
The other day I was helping build a fence. Digging holes doesn’t not take all my brain power so my mine began to wander. While I was wander I began to wonder, “Could digging post holes be consider posting.” Grammatically that is. Has anyone named Oscar won and Oscar.
Some of the saying I have heard I had doubts about. A watched pot does boil. I proved when I was in fourth grade. I was going to compare the time for a watched pot to boil and a unwatched pot but I couldn’t accurately measure the unwatched pot.
That should have been “While I was wandering I began to wonder,
Maybe somebody could write a song about this.
I think it's covered.
For that you need Schrödinger's Pot...
Fellows, please! It’s why they made whistling teakettles.
I got a FReepmail. Now our FRiend can’t just worry in general about her daughter in Asia, who apparently doesn’t have a military service looking out for her.
If you’ve ever wondered what kind of creature may be lurking on the other side of your computer monitor ...
Be afraid.
I wouldn’t want to see that face peering around my monitor!
It explains a lot of posts, though. On the Internet, no one knows you’re a catmudgeon.
There are sometimes indications in the tpying style ...
That’s what “preview” is for.
Wait-a-minute! What are you trying to say here?
Well, my daughter is very happy with her cat right now. She is a very giving person and when someone she knew from the mission in Colombia asked if said someone could stay in my daughter’s NYC apartment and cat-sit while my daughter was in Colombia last week my daughter said, ‘Sure.’
Then the red flags started popping up, like asking if she could stay for just a few days after my daughter got back (the woman is at least in her 40s, my daughter in her 20s), stories about the woman’s first marriage, etc. We began to wonder if she would leave.
But Kiwi, said daughter’s cat, became very territorial while my daughter was away and almost wouldn’t let the woman on the bed, which is the only piece of furniture you can stretch out on in my daughter’s apartment.
So, crisis averted thanks to Kiwi unfriennding this person in real life.
And daughter has (hopefully) learned a lesson in slowing down.
No, no, no. It’s Tai-ping. It’s an ancient Chinese art brought to America in the late 1980s. When practiced properly it brings order, peace, harmony, and well thought-out posts. Unfortunately, computers and the modern American rush to do everything has reduced it to merely typing, which is best used for obfuscation, confusion, and driving Democrats crazy.
Nothing wrong with that last, BTW.
Anyway, since Tai-ping is very much influenced by the energy of the universe, it’s no surprising that certain lurkers can have a negative impact on its practice.
RACIS!!!!
