RE: That’s where we are headed.......

Hi Teena, I enjoyed your post.

I also want to correct one comment.

No heirlooms in my family, so no legacy.

Here's a little gem. wine

RE: The purpose of life

The garden sounds great, have you any pictures?

RE: Leftist ot Liberal?

Everything changes when it reaches America, that is all these popular words seem to either take on new meanings or the way groups operate actually alters in some way. Added to that sometimes things can be misunderstood, it's all about mindset and sometimes just trying to make things fit.

RE: So what's the problem with immigration?

When the Mexicans owned those southern states they should have built a wall to keep the Americans out. They're simply trying to go home. Just look at the names of Cities and Rivers.

RE: Paragraph Breaks

Agreed, and sometimes no full stops and no uppercase to start a new sentence. thumbs up

RE: Alec Baldwin accidently kills a woman and wounds a director on set by firing a prop gun on set

News from the radio. Police have the gun and shell, and the recovered lead projectile which they confirmed to be a live round. The bullet was lodged in the shoulder of the director who was standing directly behind the woman, it had passed through her chest.

RE: Having been accused of being a communist here is a definition of communism

The worst thing I call people is 'idiot', but only after they prove themselves to be one. I presume that is ok, maybe they take it as a compliment. dunno Should I consider something stronger, more appropriate?

RE: Having been accused of being a communist here is a definition of communism

Don't forget the collective 'Sheeple'.

RE: Having been accused of being a communist here is a definition of communism

When people are trying to present a weak case they often introduce tactics to try to weaken the opposition's argument and to influence the audience by portraying you as a 'useful idiot'. They will often exaggerate numbers by saying millions instead of simply saying 'many', words like 'huge' instead of large. There will be a lot of use of words like 'probably, could, likely etc.' and they can't resist some kind of belittling name calling, just to prove to themselves that you are defeated. Finally there is usually a shocking revelation of a future catastrophe if their argument isn't taken seriously. None of this is necessary of course when you are confident and are presenting a strong case. Don't be put off, 90% of the population are behind you, although it may appear to be the reverse here for some strange reason. thumbs up

RE: "When China Rules The World: The End Of The Western World

Unlike evidence of life on Mars it's easy to find on the internet. It was in 2013. Over and out.

RE: "When China Rules The World: The End Of The Western World

I mentioned somewhere else that China has plans to bring major Nuclear projects to Europe, Africa, South America and more. They have already started in France. I don't think I would like a Chinese nuclear plant anywhere near me, think of the potential control china would have over something so dangerous, either simply by disabling them or worse, all done by remote software control. I read some time ago how they operate in Africa, and the corrupt local government leaders facilitate them for personal gain. The destruction to the environment is also serious. Remember herds of Elephant were found dead, I never heard if they found the cause. Africa has been plundered consistently over the past 200 years. And you are right about the Incas, I read a book about it ten years ago, 10 million annihilated, it was sickening.

RE: "When China Rules The World: The End Of The Western World

Russia will need America and Europe eventually. Now is the time for them to pave the way. Maybe Trump sees that. It might not be that Russia is trying to get into America, but some long term co-operation plan. China will attack Russia, it's only a matter of time, probably not for a few decades, and Russia will need Allies, otherwise it will be isolated and no match for China. There has been co-operation between Russia and Europe at important times over the past 200 years.

RE: "When China Rules The World: The End Of The Western World

My opinion is that China will rule the entire Asian continent, it will be one super-power.
North America, Europe, Australia and most other major countries will form the other super-power.
I don't know which side Russia, South America and Africa will join. I think Russia should join Europe, but Putin is a problem with that scenario.
At this stage there will be solid peace, because both know that the alternative would be the end of everything.

RE: An unfamiliar term

That's the first I heard of it, I thought they were just idiots, now it makes sense. Why else would one post the same nonsense day after day, year after year. wow

Eh, how does it work? not that I'm interested or anything. grin

RE: Who did it better?

All those links require a log in to Google.

Also is there a video of Biden as referred to in the comments.

RE: My overwhelming urge


Maybe get rid of this blog (the evidence) when you get your sponsor. Just in case you get delayed in hospital or something.

RE: Let's play a game, just for fun.

Perhaps those who don't understand satire judge it solely by it's ability to make them laugh and miss the significance of the role it plays. Satire can be more smart than funny and in this case the contributions are made by enthusiastic beginners, in the main. But we all have to start somewhere, we just need more practice. This may well be the beginning of some very successful careers, we just need more blogs.

RE: Alec Baldwin accidently kills a woman and wounds a director on set by firing a prop gun on set

I didn't read those links so maybe this information is somewhere in them.
I heard on the radio this morning that due to Covid regulations the guns were left outside on a table.
Apparently the Assistant Director went out and saw 3 guns, he picked up the revolver, went back in, said the requisite "cold gun" and handed it to Baldwin.
They didn't say if the Armorer was present when the gun was selected. Or why a live bullet was in the gun, or who put it in. This was definitely not following any kind of a correct procedure. I still wouldn't blame Baldwin because at his end it was the normalized procedure, even if it was flawed, as has been said.
He aimed directly at the camera and fired. If he aimed away from his target the effect would have been wrong on film, I suppose. The second person must have been hit with a projectile from the victim.

RE: Alec Baldwin accidently kills a woman and wounds a director on set by firing a prop gun on set

Yes, maybe bits of casing or the pins, who knows. I presume that two bullets or more were fired so the chances of something unlikely happening more than once are remote. I didn't hear what the distance was but to hit both people with blanks seems impossible. We'll hear if bullets were found and if so ballistics can do their work.

RE: Alec Baldwin accidently kills a woman and wounds a director on set by firing a prop gun on set

There was another firearms stunt expert on the radio who said that being a western it might have been a revolver. Blank bullet casings are crimped closed. There is no projectile and only gunpowder inside. The blank is shorter than real bullets, so they drill and fix pins across the bullet chamber, which prevents real bullets from fitting into the barrel.

RE: Let's play a game, just for fun.

That might explain the recent Bionic strength of my left arm, which I am quite pleased with. I was thinking of getting the next couple of boosters in my right arm to balance things up. thumbs up thumbs up

RE: have you ever thought about exercise....

I have always helped people but seldom did that involve physical exercise, so if I didn't do physical training I would probably be in poor health by now, but if the hours spent helping people was converted to kinetic energy I might be an Olympian. grin

The birds are very playful. thumbs up That angel is the nearest thing to a bird I could find. angel

RE: Rice Pudding

Harbottle, the information on the type of rice was for another poster, not you.

Did you use Pudding rice (short grain rice)?

RE: Man!!! Am I in LOVE..seriously!!!

The stage you're at now is very nice and you're enjoying it because you are imagining all the best possible scenarios. Then at some stage you might start chatting, eventually you will need to know if he even cares one iota about you. Enjoy and good luck.happy place
