How many people know anything about their grandparents grandparents ?? even their name?

We are only here for a very short time and once the memory of us is gone we never existed

Closed comments on my blog as an angry self righteous individual started throwing insults at another blogger for voicing their own opinion which I understand is everyone's right ?

Japan's fertility rate is on the decline due to a number of factors:-
Less people getting married, and having children outside of wedlock is frowned upon.
The high cost of childcare, and lack of support facilities.
High living costs.
Bleak job prospects. Difficulty with dual working parents due to business cultures.
Limited space
1.30 births per woman in 2021
Population decreased by 600,000 in 2021.

This is about a former first lady. Her name was mentioned in a current blog and why she's still in a marriage with Donald. I can think of a few reasons and from tabloid comments I read, there's a mountain of gossip about the woman. What's true and what's false may be difficult to prove either way.

She was a fashion model, did some risky nudes and few F-F photos. Photos on the internet. Undisputed.
Mentioned in a few places, she was an escort. Mentioned in other places, she was a callgirl. T/F not confirmed.

She met Donald at a party where he was to meet someone else and focused on her. At the time, he was married to Marla Maples. Undisputed.
It's believed she's had plastic surgery. T/F not confirmed.

Several times I read comments her visa was in jeopardy and her marriage to Donald fixed that including her citizenship. I also read he arranged her parents travel to the United States and 'fast-tracked' their citizenship. T/F not confirmed.

So... what's in it for her?
Lavish lifestyle, gave him a handsome son. True.
There's talk about a prenup agreement and recent renegotiation. Ohh.. tough one.
Has that been confirmed?

Either way... what ever happens to their marriage, she walks away standing tall as it's my opinion, she is doing a great job to ride the tide in something she didn't expect to be so connected in.

I used to think the world was full of chronic complainers, but... the more I looked the more I found, so there must be room for more complainers...

Hi all (men and women),

I need help in reporting 50+ NEW scammers (= fakes) on CS.
The more reporting, the better. When you report you can put them on your "blocked list", then you see them gone when they are deleted.
Waiting for you to message me.


3 hrs later - all gone! all 39!

I'm the subject of false accusations on CS... again. Not the first time and my accuser has been the same person who has done this several times over the years.
Probably, two weeks ago, the profile of a regular blogger has gone quiet and the suspicion arose that I'm responsible for reporting this member.

Sorry to burst your bubble... FOR THE RECORD, I had nothing to do with it.

Around the same time his profile status changed, I noticed the disappearance of another member. I came home from meetings to see butcher had last commented on one of my blogs. When I clicked the blog to read his comment, it wasn't there. His profile appears to be closed.

So mysteriously 2 members have gone silent.

My suggestion to the person who is accusing me, is to stop your hate and paranoia. Seek professional help for your condition.

It's expected this blog will fuel another round of hate blogs in retaliation... so be it.

Let's glorify European peace and neutrality!
European neutrality is especially beautiful in those moments when someone in the neighborhood starts to get killed, and this someone starts to call loudly for help! At this awkward moment, there is nothing more beautiful than moving to a safe distance and answering from there, from a distance: How rude, how unaesthetic, especially this annoying cry for help... And how good it is that what is happening has absolutely nothing to do with us -good old Europe! Especially if you take a few more steps and distract yourself with something pleasant so as not to feel stressed.Like chocolate, classical music... some gas contracts... football ... Earplugs are also good so that the sounds of the massacre do not interfere with the buffet in honor of European integration.
This is what neutrality looks like .
And a little later (when the ones who were killed go from shouting to “answering”), then the time of European peace comes.
Because -... well, how is that possible! We must stop the bloodshed immediately! We are, kind of humanists. The civilian population is suffering. We demand the immediate start of multilateral negotiations with the participation of Hamas, Strelkov-Girkin and the legally elected leaders of the Hutu tribe, who have just, with complete European neutrality, slaughtered a million of Tutsis.
We must quickly transfer the conflict to the diplomatic plane! Otherwise blood will be shed! And we are kind of against bloodshed. We are Europeans... Locke, Montesquieu, Rousseau... it’s cold in winter, we still need gas... So we need to negotiate!
And, in principle, why not negotiate? So Hitler was quite tolerant as long as he limited himself to the Czechs... Ask Chamberlain.
In short: European neutrality and peacefulness! The main thing is not to confuse the order of words...

Not everyone is cut out for the positions they hold in business. One business owner I worked for often used the term Peter Principal where some people rise to a position where they begin to show incompetence.

One woman I knew was the best draftsperson in the department and received a promotion that put her in a management position. The company did a disservice to her and themselves. Orders began to back up as she trained her replacement and she wasn't knowledgeable with the workings of the company, making a few bad decisions. Happy with the pay increase, uncomfortable with the demands of her new job, she felt she couldn't step down (as there was no longer a place for her) and decided to leave the company.
Lose/lose for her and the company who employed her.

Another boss was nice enough to use the phrase "We're all wired differently" describing how he tried to place people in the best positions they were suited for. We had one cabinet maker who owned his own custom shop. His business failed, not because he was a bad cabinet maker... he was very experienced and produced high-quality work. His weakness was an inability to manage the business end of his company. Working for someone else was the magic formula.

I think everyone has experienced a dyslexic moment now and then and accidentally transposed an address or some part of a phone number. Every week, I get mail in my box intended for a neighbor. In that case, it's laziness or fatigue. Sorting mail and being dyslexic would be a career disaster.

30+ years ago, I worked for a place before they went on computer where the bookkeeper constantly transposed figures. Mistakes were in her typing, hand written notes, especially phone messages, but the worst part was her accounting errors. It frustrated the owner for the time lost going back over ledgers correcting her mistakes. They photo copied all the checks and he had to go back to see there she transposed entries.
The position required multitasking that she wasn't good at, compounded by lots of interruptions of a small office where she would get flustered when things got really busy. It was more than dyslexia as she would often put callers on hold and totally forget them. They would call back angry!

I suppose there is hope for dyslexia.


Dyslexics of the world…..
UNTIE!!!!

There are people in this world who lack common sense. Many of them don't read instructions before operating machinery or doing things deemed dangerous/careless by other members of society.
I recall a story about a woman who bought a motor-home, gets on the highway, turns on cruise control. She gets up from the driver's seat to go back and make a cup of coffee and the vehicle runs off the road crashing and injuring the woman.
Obviously, she assumed cruise control was auto-pilot. Lady, it's a motor-home and not a Boeing 747.
I'm sure vehicle manufacturers have added warnings on the control and increased the owner's handbook warning.
Sometimes, their stupidity actually pays off. Take the case of the 79 year old woman who was negligent and spilled hot McDonalds coffee on her lap while in her car causing 3rd degree burns that required skin grafting and 2 years of medical treatment. Stupidly McDonalds didn't want to pay her $20,000 medical expenses and settle. The woman's attorney sued and got her millions.
After... you guessed it, all the McDonalds coffee cups and lids now have explicit warnings.
It happened again to an 85 year old woman who placed the cup in the car's drink holder, drove to an appointment and parked. She claims the lid wasn't put on correctly and ALL of the coffee spilled on her when she started to drink it. I do hope McDonalds had better lawyers for that case.


So the next time you decide to watch that bag of microwave popcorn puff up while cooking, Take my advice and stand back. You're done when the popping is nearly stopped... Otherwise being too close the door and some spurious radiation leaks out it could be your eyeballs that will puff up.
While on the subject of microwave radiation, NEVER try to dry your pet inside a microwave oven. The results would be alarming.
