On the shoulders of giants, sir


There was a guy named Hero of Alexandria who was alive at the time of Jesus. He was a brilliant inventor, like the DaVinci of his day. He wrote 4 books. The first 3 are about his own inventions and the 4th seems similar but is thought to be a book explaining how other common things worked. In that 4th book he details how a trick “water into wine” jug works.
This is like Jesus trying to prove who he is by doing a card trick. “Look, I know all the other card tricks are just tricks, but THIS ONE is really magic.”


This seems ok as long as you allow people to buy it back for a reasonable price


I’m not a law guy but I seriously doubt there is a military law that says it is illegal to say not to do illegal things


But how do we know Asia’s coastline isn’t more jaggedy?


Damn right. Nothing beats pumpkin pie, especially around Christmas.

I don’t think we can read that much into it. “Ask him if Putin has the photos of Trump blowing bubba like I made up last week when we were joking about what Putin might have on him.”
Regardless if it’s true or not, this would be a great time for Clinton to take one for the team and say it happened. “He even introduced me to something called analingus, which I had never had before. He was really practiced at it, he said it was his favorite thing in the world.”


I’d spend half on hookers and blow, the other half I’d just waste
I like that millions of people are asking if Trump was giving blowjobs but this looks like a joke to me. This isn’t Epstein letting it slip that Trump likes to have dicks in his mouth. He’s with Bannon so his brother is joking “ask him what blackmail Putin has on Trump, photos of him blowing somebody or something?”
Unless maybe Jeff told Mark that Trump gives BJs so Mark is saying “ask Bannon about that thing you told me about.”
Often it’s children’s junk their obsessed with. Absolute perverts


I couldn’t live without a dining table. Where else would I keep car parts when they come out of the dishwasher?
Gotta be rotini, it’s ribbed

When I was 15 in the 90s, every adult in the family, and adult friends of the family, said “You’re 15? Let’s go drive for an hour or two!” I’m pretty sure that, legally, a parent was supposed to be with me, but I guess any random adult was close enough.
I just added up 14 different vehicles I “learned on,” including an old pickup with “three on the tree”, a Corvette, a 280z turbo, a 68 Chevelle, an International Scout. The rest were boring vehicles. If I remember correctly, 9 were manuals.


I should be more clear. I don’t mean I consume TV like most people but do it through my media server. I meant that I have the media server and if I get the rare feeling that I want to watch TV I will watch some old show I have on there.
I upgraded my system in 2023 and looking at my history since then, it shows me watching a few episodes of Letterkenny after the update. I actually spent several months before that “binging” it. That was an uncharacteristically lot of TV for me and I actually skipped over every scene with only the Skids in it. I couldn’t stand them
After that, I’ve watched 5 episodes of The Super Dave Osborne Show which came out in the 80s, 3 episodes of Kim’s Convenience 5 episodes of Peep Show and 12 episodes of the comedy Children’s Hospital.
Without commercials those are 22 minutes each, except Children’s Hospital which are 11 minutes, or two episodes in 22/30 minutes. So 19x22 minutes= 418, or 7 hours in two years. I average watching 17.5 minutes of old TV shows per month.
I consider that not watching TV. I don’t keep up with new shows. I don’t finish a show and start looking for a new one to watch. But if I got really interested in a new TV show I’d watch the hell out of it then go back to not really watching anything.
It’s legal in a lot of states in the US
