He may not be functioning on all cylinders. What would we do if all of a sudden all forms of communication were cut off?

If the news showed it, it must have been a ten second segment that was not repeated. Oh, I did notice five minute segments three days in a row about Johnny Depp and his lawsuit. That's pretty important stuff.

He was fined 10.000 dollars for each day that he doesn't produce the files. I think it will show him that he is not above the law. Cheers!

Friends of the man are saying that it was a deeply fearless act of compassion to bring attention to climate crisis. I don't see and think it was an act of stupidly. Cheers!

I hope it's because they're already made from recycled materials and can't be recycled again, but maybe they've figured out they can't recycle some things? Anyone here know more?

. . . all (I) keep hearing for (my) entire life is how BEAUTIFUL hot and sunny weather is? And how dreary, ugly and gloomy "MY" beautiful weather is?Ever since a very young boy, I have always preferred many beautifully gray various-shaped clouds in the sky, or very overcast with no visible blue sky, and cool temperatures. Constantly I've noticed - - from all people and all weather forecasters -- that I am simply wrong in what I find beautiful.
Now, everyone get out there and enjoy the beautiful sunny and 80-degrees weather this weekend. less

Then he went on a rant about how he aced a Montreal Cognitive test. I would rather have a dumb person running my country than a dictator. Cheers!

After I retired, my wife insisted that I accompany her on her trips to Myers.
Unfortunately, like most men, I found shopping boring and preferred to get in and get out. Equally unfortunate, my wife is like most women - she loves to browse.
Yesterday my dear wife received the following letter from the local Myer's.
Dear Mrs. Harris,
Over the past six months, your husband has caused quite a commotion in our store. We cannot tolerate this behavior and have been forced to ban both of you from the store. Our complaints against your husband, Mr. Harris, are listed below and are "documented by our video surveillance cameras":
1. June 15: He took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in other people's carts when they weren't looking.
2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5 minute intervals.
3. July 7: He made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the women's restroom.
4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official v... less

And I swear on a stack of Ukrainian babushkas that I will never grow another Russian sunflower again. Cheers and happy weekend!

It doesn't absorb dirt, the dirt remains on the outside and can be "cleaned" with a little time. It can shape shift into anything. You can separate it into many smaller balls and gather it back again, just like the UFO's.....just saying! Actually there is no healing per se needed because there is only separation not injury to the whacked mercury. That's even better.

I am also going to help make sure I see many more 4/20 days by not smoking any of it for a couple hours before I start my days work (it is a fairly dangerous job today. Cheers and happy 4/20!
