RE: Which Greek Deity Are YOU? -

You're not supposed to laugh, Mic.

You're supposed to say I am the physical embodiment of all that is Athena. snooty laugh

RE: Which Greek Deity Are YOU? -

Go me. laugh

RE: Maybe I'm just a cranky old man

Am I still a foreigner, or am I allowed to share my thoughts and feelings, too? giggle

RE: After you use it, it's hard to find.

Trump special offer!

RE: Stick it up your nose...

Merc told me about a nasal spray being developed in Australia ages ago.

If nasal sprays are being developed in more that one setting, I can only assume they're on to something.

Perhaps if people feel uncomfortable about vaccination, as many people do, it may provide another pathway and some personal choice.

RE: I now know the location of 5 US states!

Hang on, I saw something about mink out of the corner of my eye...

'Almost never' is not the same as 'never'.

Whether it's wet markets, factory farming, or fur coats, animal cruelty is never going to be healthy.

RE: He who laughs last

I don't find puking pleasurable, Celtic.

But then again, I don't have a phobia of you. tip hat

RE: I now know the location of 5 US states!

That's a fabulous bit of prose, Phil. tip hat

RE: I've been voting since 1976

To be fair Bogart, perhaps a lot of people voted to get rid of Trump.

It's a dilemma I have often found myself in: vote in terms of what I believe in, or vote to get rid of what I believe is most reprehensible.

There is an integrity in both, but one is more uncomfortable than the other.

RE: He who laughs last

Euch! Celtic!

I've just been a bit sick in my mouth. laugh

RE: It has finally happened ! The wait is over. The counts are in. In 2021 we have a real president !

Let's not forget he put his grubby little hands on our Queen Liz.

Her momentary shudder and then almost instantaneous return to dignity and self-control was priceless. laugh

RE: I've been voting since 1976

I remember 1976. It was the only time in my entire life I had a tan, probably because my freckles merged.

I think Merc would deem you a real Republican, which she views as different from a Trump supporter.

RE: He who laughs last

This is the same as you refusing to acknowledge that you would have accepted the results without question had Trump won.

It was Trump who declared victory with unreasonable prematurity and you didn't bat an eyelid. Now Biden has acknowledged various bodies calling the election in his favour you deem it premature.

The idea that fraud only exists if things don't go in your favour is not col, calm, nor collected.

A sloosh of this and a dab of that recipes are cool, Fay.

Just let it flow from the soul. laugh

RE: Pumpkin seeds...

If that's vegan, or can be adapted, it would be a good one for my blog.

Fancy sharing...? grin

RE: Queen of Kitchen Gadjets

Do you have German heritage, UnFayzed? laugh

My mum used to drive me crazy giving me kitchen gadgets everytime she visited. I suspect she passed on the ones which were at the "worst tools to own" end of the spectrum, but a few of them were good enough for me to get the bug.

Now I find kitchen gadgets in charity shops myself and pass them on to my daughter, or even my grandchildren. The kids eat so many apples since I gave them an all in one corer and slicer. I originally got it for my daughter, she gave it back to me and now it's finally being loved in the right little hands. laugh

RE: "I'm telling you, she had implants. Four of them !"

You should!

You could have a field day with reflecting the ethics, psychology and environmental issues of human dominance with that one.

RE: Biden's small crowd in Georgia, and yet, Biden and Trump are neck and neck in Georgia? lol

No, the election outcome is measured in votes.

I'm not saying I support either Trump, or Biden.

I'm not trying to predict who will win.

I'm saying the dynamic is more complicated than how many people turn up at rallies and that it has been further complicated by the pandemic.

Although I bet Trump is kicking himself for not signing an executive order to bring back the clap-ometer.

RE: Biden's small crowd in Georgia, and yet, Biden and Trump are neck and neck in Georgia? lol

Why would the size of the crowd be at all meaningful with respect to voting?

As I understand it, you don't need to go to a rally to get a ballot.

What the size of the crowds imply is that Trump supporters are more likely to take risks with their, and other's, health and lives in the middle of a pandemic.

RE: COMPULSORY VACCINATION

Poland has had compulsory vaccinations since the communist regime. Lots of countries have at least some level of coerced, or mandatory vaccination.

Personally, I think working out the trust issues would be a more productive, and possibly more cost effective means of dealing with objection to vaccines.

When my daughter was small, medical staff were less than transparent when I asked about risks. I expected to have an informed choice and in the absence of that information, I refused consent for some vaccinations.

RE: Natural Heat vs Unnatural Heat

Yeah, I can't get my head round hurtling around in a couple of tons of metal with all those gorgeous, squashy people on the outside. laugh

It still seems that a lower carbon footprint and greater physical fitness pales into insignificance against petty social status on this side of the pond.

RE: Natural Heat vs Unnatural Heat

I've had people look down on me and even make snide remarks because I don't drive.

We have a psychological issue where private vehicles are not only considered the only practical means of living, but they are also a status symbol.

Not having a car makes you a non-person, an untouchable.

RE: You go girl...

You lookin' at me...?

You lookin' at me?

I can't tell you the number of times I've filled in forms as Ms. Jac and then get mail addressed to Mr. Jac, like those who input data have to correct my error of judgement.

It's not like my lumps and bumps are ambiguous. I am 'fully' aware of my own gender. laugh

Is it coverage of the election?
