A gigantic asteroid which is larger than the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa, will hurtle past our planet in around two weeks time. The 2002 AJ129 asteroid has been classed a 'potentially hazardous' by Nasa and will fly past at speeds of 67,000mph.But it clearly portends what may be awaiting our planet somewhere down the road doesn't it? Tell me again about 'the rapture'.

But how would anyone see some grain growing and decide they have to reap it, dry it, pulverize it, mix it with water, let it sit, and on and on all the way to a loaf of bread?

If only prez knew what he wants and sticks with it and lets them know. How long does the dog and pony show go on? How much should an unsure ignorant uncertain prez be allowed to block any progress on anything at any time because he can't make up his mind and STICK WITH IT?

Not so with cutlery. For all the different worldwide cuisines, your choice is chopsticks or "Western" cutlery - knife, fork, spoon. What other options are there? Are these really the only two types of cutlery that mankind has invented?
Why are some English names pronounced so differently than they're spelled? I'm thinking of Cholmondeley (pronounced "Chumley") and Featherstonehaugh (pronounced "Fanshaw").

It tells you NOTHING of the intellect/accomplishments/character of the people. Isn't that important too or is ethnicity the only yardstick of value to the measurers?

Why golf would be the last thing he'd have time to do. He'd be at his desk working working working working and not like Obama who was always away from his desk and D.C. playing golf in Hawaii. Finally the poor overworked donjohn guy gets a chance to do what he loves to do. Smooze with fellow billionaires, eat some really tasty food, and finally PLAY GOLF! I say we give him an award for valor above and beyond the call of duty. Giving up golf for over a year so he could work work work work work work work? Hear hear! Whotta guy! :) less

A vast array/variety/cornucopia/potpourri of those who are and that which is severely disliked. Charity begins at home of course but is reserved for the wealthy when home is the US of A. By the time that's all used up by the wealthy there is none left for the rest of us. SIGH.

So was Marie Osmond. She is the ONLY one who lost weight and kept it off and she is still the spokesperson for the weight loss plan. The others have been up and down and are currently up though I don't know what Kirstie looks like. Haven't seen a recent picture of her. So here's the question. Why is Marie Osmond able to change her mindset and what she values while the others haven't, didn't or couldn't? less
I can't figure out how I would deal with my toenails without clippers. While a lack of shoes might make the issue less critical, I still wonder how folks dealt with the issue.

You were helpless pawns being targeted by folks with specific motives. You were all there together collected in one spot. The rest of us were out of their reach. But you were all ducks held captive in a shooting gallery and shoot you they did. Full of lies and misinformation and madeup scandals and phony evidence of fantasies to shape your thinking and fill your heads with exactly what they wanted you to believe was true. They are still at it too. Are you still on FB or Twitter? You like being a target? less
It is the classic deal they make with the devil. I have no idea how many women there are who have done that. I wonder if they think they made a great deal or a lousy one?

She denied it in writing because she had signed an agreement to shut up for the money but somehow elsewhere she admitted it. In detail. Now we all know what a stud the donjohn is and I believe there are a dozen or so women who have filed complaints about him because of his grossly inappropriate and unwanted sexual assaults on them. But his consensual sex playmates? Nope. They just got paid off to shut up about it. In fact Steve Bannon is quoted as saying there was a specific attorney who dealt with about 100 women to keep them quiet by paying them off. Don't know if that is true but WHY would Steve Bannon make up something like that? I mean what would he gain by it? He was very close to donjohn. Why would he say something so cruelly mean and defamatory if it were untrue? less

Well the donjohn Trump National Golf Club Philadelphia website sez you can see the Philadelphia Skyline from the location of the New Jersey Golf Club because it is set on a high hill. False advertising? I mean what else can you see from the top of that hill where the golf club is located? Other cities? Other countries? Any islands? Geez Louise Puhleez.

While Republicans hold all the power they better use it fast or it will bite them on the a**! You know how in the movies someone says "you should have killed me when you had the chance"? Well Republicans this is your chance to get rid of us Liberals and Dems once and for all. When YOU HOLD ALL THE CARDS and HAVE ALL THE POWER. When is your chance ever gonna be better to insure that y'all will continue to control the country? less

Mitch McConnell said they are waiting for the prez to decide what he wants so they can give him a bill to sign. I guess we won't know which view he will hold until Chief of Staff Kelly or Stephen Miller tell him which one he wants. So much for leadership and decisionmaking. It was kinda pathetic for the Senate Majority leader to admit they don't have a clue what donjohn wants so they're stuck waiting on him to decide. McConnell looked kinda sheepish.
