I can’t imagine why. SOMEBOY has to keep track of where we are.
Somebody who can do maths, that is.
Unlike someone who looks at x88 and thinks we’re close.
Not naming any of my names or anything.
I just had a thought. If people have been moving out of cities due to COVID and crime and riots and such, I wonder if those concentrated vote totals will be more distributed and mixed in with suburban and rural voters.
It could make for an interesting vote result.
I can’t do maths. I was suffering with Rheumatic fever when I was in the third grade, during the crucial part of multiplication and division of the maths. I missed a lot of the processes. Then, as I got to my first job, I learned only because I had an adding machine (still quite a few years away from hand-held calculators) and then as I got into jobs that dealt strictly with cash it was much better because of the calculator, but then I got sick with CFIDS and now, the bank I have takes the money out immediately when I write a check, or I couldn’t have a bank account. I can’t write a check at the grocery store, for instance, because it requires an “authorization” number. Without it, the check won’t be accepted.
So no, no maths. I still can’t balance a checkbook.
There’s common phraseology drifting about the premises in the vein of leaving things until “Someone Else ends up doing it,” or “making more work for Someone Else,” and I get advised to “Delegate that to Someone Else”...
Surveying the general outcome of these exchanges, I’ve ruminated on the idea of changing my first and middle names to “Someone Else.”
I’ve always liked reading Selina Zito. Today she made reference to “Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel” which was an added plus.
Good article.
