Now, with four times fewer brain cells,

What an awkward way to say with 1/4, or 25% of the previous brain cells...

I’m also NOT a fan of putting HUMAN brain cells on/in anything that isn’t a HUMAN body. That’s playing God, and God will not be mocked.

We don’t ‘gain’ anything. The sun comes up when it comes up, we just change when we RECOGNIZE it coming up.

And, in the meantime, we discombobulate the country for a week.

It’s the perfect analogy for useless and feckless government I could ever make up.

I found that to be interesting, and very well laid out. Thank you.

Yeah, some players want to blame “it’s not convenient”, “I don’t want to bother nobody”, or whatever- but if that’s their freakin’ job, make’em earn it!

Someone worth hundreds of millions of dollars does not need to drive.

Hire someone that doesn’t drink, smoke, curse, or have any other problems, and pay them $100,000 a year to drive you 24 x 7 where ever you want to go.

Or, uBer, Lyft, Waymo, and have dozen other ride services - or good old “Yellow Cab”. Heck, you can do a limo, if you want - and it’ll still be a better decision.

I’m turning 56 this year, and we’ve been at war with Iran since 1979. It just was more a ‘pause’ or ‘truce’.

I didn’t do too badly, got 8 of 10, couldn’t remember “The Lion King”, was stuck on “Black Panther” for some reason.

Oh, and the last one, “The Jungle Book” - doh!

US public housing should go to US CITIZENS only.

Any team that gets public money (or tax abatements, or refunds), should be banned from showing any game ONLY on streaming, it should be on the same public airwaves that gave them all that money.

The capital building and a cash register?

1. I was born in Hungary, I became famous for my numerous weddings and for acting in the movie “Moulin Rouge” (1952).

3. I was born in Tokyo to English parents and I was not the only actor/actress in my family in Hollywood. I died at the age of 104.

4. I was born in Stockholm, Sweden. I became known for my melancholy and isolation and was noticed when I acted in “Flesh and the Devil” (1927).

Brandon Herrera is a better candidate for TX-23 anyway.

I take it you’ve never watched or listened to William Shatner doing “Rocketman”.

Ugh.

I’ll have to read 1985 and Incompetence.

Thanks for the tip!

I’ve donated twice to Brandon’s campaign, both times $23.00 (for District 23).

Unfortunately, I’m a law abiding citizen (more often than not - haha) and unable to vote for him since I don’t live in that district. I know, that wouldn’t stop the DemoKKKrats!

Too many people confused the book Nineteen eighty four for a manual.

Thus, my tag line on my posts.

I don’t know if there is, or is not, life outside of Earth.

I do know what God said, and that He made man in His image. It doesn’t say if he did, or did not, make others in His image.

Brandon Herrera is a MUCH better candidate than Tony Gonzales.

Sounds like the grocery stores in Russia under the Soviet Union - standing in line for day (or a few days old) bread.

I’m solidly Gen-X (born in 1970), but I missed 3 of these.
