Where we ended up and how matters not if we all came from the same place. Brick walls and petunias and homo sapiens the same stuff. Could that be the answer to our search for meaning in life? There is none? It is all random chance and happenstance? How we evolved was simply due to mutations and defects and adapting to our environment in order to survive? Survival of the fittest right? less

Now 93 billion light years in diameter is a pretty big size. 23 trillion light years in diameter is way bigger. What's the point of asking the question? What are we supposed to do with the answers? What does it matter? How does it affect us in any way? Curiosity of course is always the point of asking! Why else would you ask any question unless you were curious enough about something to seek answers? Incurious has never been my cuppa tea. Are you incurious and happy not knowing or asking? Just accepting what you are told to believe? Why would anyone be satisfied with ignorance? That DOES NOT compute. less

Happyness (sic) comes only in bursts and sexual love the same. As for accomplishment it keeps ahead of you and the more you accomplish the less it is enough. The only fulfilled people I know are those whose curiosity keeps them too busy to wonder whether they are happy, fulfilled, contented or not. Be sure that no matter what you do it will not be enough to you. As for direction there are millions of them and they are all the same one. And in human endeavor the range between great and small is very short. Yours, John Steinbeck"Why did I share that with you? Because I think it is far too beautiful to keep from you. One day I will be gone and those words deserve to be released and read and contemplated by others and not die with me. So here you are. My gift to you. I hope you find meaning in them. Those words have helped me. Perhaps they can help you too. less

Do you wonder if you have spent it wisely so far and will you keep doing so? The value of time varies with each person I s'pose. How much thought do you give to it?

And so in addition to communicating with others of our species wouldn't it be nice to communicate with all living animals? Dr. Doolittle "talked" to the animals. There is a dog whisperer on TV named Caesar. I think there was movie with Robert Robert in which he was a horse whisperer. That way we'd know when an animal was in pain and where it hurt and maybe we could do something to help. Are you an animal-lover? less

Story was some young guy bought the car, had it registered in his mother's name to get reduced insurance rate but somehow pissed off his mom so very badly so that she sold his car for $2000. Fixed him I guess. Lucky buyer anyway providing there was no lein on the vehicle.

Fact is, and he could ask his scientists this: the warming climate is why the polar vortex has descended southward. What purpose is served by continually espousing obvious ignorance?

So Barr has already contradicted his boss-to-be. No one does that and survives! Barr said Mueller would not do that. How can you-know=hoo tolerate a guy like that?Also William Barr said he would not be bullied into doing anything wrong. Well that's precisely why youknowwho picked him. To do his bidding. To roll over and obey without question. So unless Barr was LYING during his testimony and will absolutely enjoy being bullied to do the wrong thing then he is the wrong appointee for u no hoo. Ya know? less

What is in question is the form and not whether it happened or not. I think that is very peculiar. So I wonder why Mueller bothered to say anything if he wasn't going to deny in its ENTIRETY? Any ideas why? less

But then again why would he be expected to know that? He eschews reading and listening and learning as if it were poison to him. Therefore he remains ignorant willfully purposefully adamantly and it shows in everything he does or says. Swell as he** ain't he?

He cancelled the use of a government plane that was scheduled to take MAJORITY SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE Nancy Pelosi (second in line to be president of the United States) to Afghanistan. NO ONE EVER TELLS ANYONE OF ANY PLANNED TRIPS TO A WAR ZONE. Except of course for the petulant Putin puppet who does all he can to undermine sabotage attack hobble cripple destroy the security of the United States of America. There is nothing more certain of his mindset and goals than that he should make very happy his mentor handler boss. No matter the cost . Make America Great Again my a**! An empty slogan. Too bad. less

It would be very nice if all answers didn't raise more questions but they do and so round and round and round we go and where we stop nobody knows because we never stop. SIGH. It makes the Questioner very dizzy woozy.
