  • Its GAME TIME

    Apparently he has some very not progressive policy positions (I'll have to look again to make sure I'm remembering what these are), the House AOC types have sold out already (because she and some like her have an agenda of moving into leadership), and Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb are going nowhere.

    The last time I remember Congress being functional was during the Reagan administrations. So if it ends up being a mess I won't be surprised.

    He is a gifted politician though.

    I don't feel sanguine.

    Victorian manor houses weren't well insulated either. Apparently people had to congregate in the warm areas.

    The energy all that must take. I can't imagine it.

    Btw, he shouldn't go to a Commonwealth nation again. They don't want to be reminded of their colonial subjection. This most recent tour saw him standing in the rain at an official engagement. Not one umbrella was ready for him? Camilla finally got one, went back to her seat, and started laughing. He started back, turned around, and finished the ceremony in the rain.

    Did he ever hate and resent her for being herself and being more popular than him.

    Don't believe he ever loved her unless you want to actually be believing the lies the newspapers were telling before the wedding.

    This is how far back in time and how misguided you would have be to think so.

    He said he didn't love her in as many words during their famous joint appearance to announce the engagement in as many words.

    People say it. It's almost a cliche. But it should have been Anne.

    It would have been with the laws in place today.

  • Phone?

    I made a Wal-Mart "List" on the app for the first time.

    It had over 30 items (if the item is Count +2 or +4, each one counts as1 item).

    It took me 2 days.

    You have to choose each item, organize groups of items (optional), and products can go out of stock in real time,...

    meaning your List can change every time you look at it.

    I completed my task but strange to say it draining after 2 sessions working with it over 2 days.

    I got 1 correct. #1.

    So my score is less than 10%.

    Yikes.

    There's a brain teaser. Lol.

    We studied Roland Barthes extensively in school (anyone who majored in a social sciences).

    As far as being grumpy, I was famous in my family, to a person, as having been a grumpy child and an exceptionally serious one.

    I was born this way.

    What can I say.

    Beats the media studies presentations we did in HS. Wow!

    I tried my best to follow along with what was being said, but I thought the presentation was the best part.


  • I had hoped that Jensen could be an exception ...

    That plain sucks.

    It's a social problem among the American middle and upper-middle classes too. Or at least it used to be. I remember men getting successful, having affairs with younger women, and divorcing their wives. The men didn't rate the contributions of their wives. They didn't seem to care about the well being of minor children either.

    I noticed this pattern throughout the '80's for whatever reason.

    The divorce theoretically compensated the women when the court dissolved the marriage contract. The wives were financially harmed invariably from what I saw though.

    Our neighbor went as far as buying a sports car, a Corvette, to drive his 20 years younger wife around in-- not a good look IMO but he must have thought so.

    IMO this kind of behavior borders on the line of narcissism or crosses it.

    My nextdoor neighbor had barely enough resources to eek out a living. She had to go back to work in her '60's. She had to take a low paying job at the mall. She didn't get a retirement.

    I believe in civil divorce (I think people should definitely have the right to divorce).

    It's ugly in practice though.

    The legal system seemed stacked against the women. I'm taking about women who did everything they were "supposed to do" and had never cheated.

    It can certainly be a painful, ugly mess when two people have been married for 20 or 30 years separate or divorce.

    None of the men I knew of were involved with a spy (of course) but that in itself seems to be as common as dirt.

    For those that celebrate it.

    I'd have no idea unless my planner told me and I had to look it up.

    I finally changed the clock on my stove yesterday.

    But 75,000?

    Try x3 and you still wouldn't be correct.

    The Lancet reported on this a long time ago.

    And more every day.
