I prepared the working papers each year in advance of the audit and she was assigned to me. Her name was Miki. Young enough to be my daughter. She was very knowledgeable. VERY SMART. And she taught me a lot about accounting and how to do my work during the year so that it would make year-end review a snap! I also had a boss who was the smartest person I've ever met. I think he was 20 years younger than me! I didn't care. I take information/knowledge from any source. Age is irrelevant to me. It seems to be very important to some. Is it important to you? Why? less

But generally speaking the older you are the closer you are to death. What else?

Seriously? Old Age is not a guarantee of smarts or wisdom or intelligence. All it is a guarantee of is that the old fogeys are closer to death than the young people. Period. And to be rattled/angry about young people marching and speaking out says everything we need to know about them. These kids LIVED THROUGH terror. Have they? No wonder we are in the mess we're in. The old fogeys refuse to listen to the young. The old fogeys think they know everything there is to know and that the young people have nothing to add to the conversation and should just shut up. Old fogeys are destroying our country. Our only hope lies with the young. SIGH. less

Whiny crybabies whiny cried about how terrible people on certain internet social sites were. Good grief! Why are there so many whiny crybabies? Suck it up! Move on. Get a LIFE! It's beyond absurd and it's the first time I ever read such crap as that. If a product is defective you want to let others know. I think that's a good thing. But fer cryin' out loud if your nose gets bent out of joint because someone said something you don't like why be a whiny crybaby and whine like a stuck pig? Oy vey! Good grief! Good golly miss molly! :( less

That's the way to go. Gunfolks fighting gunfolks with bullets or whatevers. That's what turns folks on. That's what they cheer! Progress, right?

A race of brutes having the form and all the vices of humans who are subject to the Houyhnhnms. A race of horses endowed with reason who rule over the Yahoos.What is the underlying reason why "they" named YAHOO YAHOO? All despot dictators are YAHOOS. Even and especially the wannabes like doofylucy.
