When I was a kid we always had ham, scallop potatoes, baked beans, devil eggs and rabbit shaped ice-cream cake for dessert. It was disgusting. I hate all that stuff.

We were walking down the sidewalk one day and something went splat next to where I was walking. My wife asked what that was and I said, "It's God. Now he's trying to spit on me." There were no birds overhead. We both had a good laugh over that.

So is stupid part of the homo sap DNA and no matter what discoveries are made or advance or progress stupid will always be part of it? If true that really sucks. Homo saps can never evolve beyond stupid? Seriously? Sheesh. SIGH.

The SUPER SMART can see what could be. The rest of us think we are already the best there is. See the problem? We are operating in different universes, different levels, different understandings. Now who wants to go through life knowing how things should be and could be better and being shoved aside by those who have no interest in something so silly as that? I have read that the suicide rate of exceedingly smart people is rather high. Why? I think they are just tired of trying to make us see how things could be better and getting hammered for it or ignored. I think they just want out. How do I know? I don't. But I have a good imagination. I also know how I feel when folks either pay no attention to me or smack me. Not very good. And the beat goes on! :( less

Wht does that say about a society that would revere the ungood and attack the good? Everything is upended. Maybe that is what progress is. Upending everything and churning it around and around to see what survives? Do you teach you kids to be honest honorable humble? If not what do you teach them? What kind of adult do you want YOUR child to be? Why?

I'm going to put the end of the article FIRST:
But fewer people know how Trump celebrated the first anniversary of the attacks, which he spent joking with Howard Stern about how a statue of then-girlfriend Melania might make a fitting memorial at the site of the tragedy.
At the beginning of the interview, Stern and Trump bantered about where Melania was (in bed, Trump said) and whether she was naked (Trump thought so, but he wasn’t sure).
Later, they discussed what should replace the stricken Twin Towers at the World Trade Center site.
“Maybe we should build a television tower there,” Trump suggested.
“Believe me, a statue of your girlfriend would be perfect right there,” Stern quipped.
“Well, that would be an idea,” an amused Trump replied.
Stern and co-host Robin Quivers joked that no one would fly into a statue of Melania.

Remember that Barr already substituted his own “exoneration” of Trump on obstruction of justice (something the Justice Department’s guidelines specify should be a matter for Congress and not for the department), refused to use summaries that Robert S. Mueller III’s team prepared in favor of his misleading summary (which he later claimed was not a summary), has failed to turn over the report or Mueller summaries to Congress in a timely manner and has refused to make an unredacted version of the report available to Congress. All in all, it’s a shabby record of politicizing the Justice Department in a way that his predecessors avoided.

I think they're mesmerizing and I don't think you really ever outgrow the fascination. Well I shouldn't speak for others. I haven't yet at my advnced age and I doubt I ever shall. Clouds. Sky. Stars. Sky. Beautiful.
