Was TESLA a mad scientist/genius.visionary?A flying machine? A submarine? WHAT else did Da Vinci sketch that came to be reality?How many visionaries are out there whom we write off as mad? I have no idea.Do you write off things you don't comprehend understand as being impossible or ludicrous? Do your limitations form the world you accept/reject? If YOU don't comprehend it then it must be incomprehensible to everyone? As you go so goes the world? Your way or the highway? Either or? Ultimatum?Political parties are formed on that specific foundation. How limiting and absurd is that? less

Why do they SEE possibilities others pooh pooh? What makes them more curious more inventive more creative more daring? Anyone?

About a month later, the lady and her husband were having a get-together at their home and we were invited. There were about four or five couples there, and I was the only active-duty servicemember among the crowd. After dinner, when I mentioned that I was a Marine, the hostess piped up that she was a Marine veteran herself. “Really? How interesting,” I said, finding a kindred spirit. “What was your MOS?” She was like a deer in the headlights, claimed that she wasn’t familiar with the acronym. “You know, your Military Occupational Specialty? What did you do in the Corps?” I asked her. “Oh, we didn’t call it that back then, maybe that’s new since I got out,” she explained. She was only about ten years older than I was, and the MOS system had been in place for about twenty to thirty years at that point, so I asked her when she had served. ... less

It gave a slight tin taste to the food wrapped in it.After World War 2 it was replaced by aluminum foil which is cheaper and more durable without any taste. Some people STILL REFER TO IT AS TINFOIL (me among them) and so in many regions everyone living there in calls it "tinfoil". You are more precise correct? Aluminum it is and aluminum it will always be and with respect to foil tin will never again cross your lips. After all right is right and to be precise is righter than not to be. Agree? less

We the people know he will NOT be convicted of anything.Then he will turn around and sue the city for whatever he can get out of it. Cop wins once again. White is right. Right is white.

When I first began doing it over twenty years ago, I often got it wrong; the wrong brand, the wrong type, etc., so she had me take the label from the package she had at home and it resolved the problem from then on.~

Of course I thanked her but I told her I didn't know any other way to be. If others used that against me so be it! That was all on them not me.How do you live YOUR life? Always protecting yourself, distrustful of others, defensive? Or are you the one who takes advantage of the trust of others and uses it against them? To what end? For what purpose? Notches on a gun to show a conquest, a "kill"?There are some people you can talk to for YEARS and never really got to know them. They don't want you anywhere near the core of whom they are. Too afraid of what you might do if you only knew.Safe. FAKE.. less

Wasn't/isn't Stephen Miller the "brain" behind the FOOTOO? It sure as he** ain't Melania. Nancy was the brain behind Roinnie t'is true but wasn't she an exception?

I forget the name of the fortuneteller Nancy relied on for that.But all through history there have been such beings. If a leader is soft in the head and the "seer" is devious all the power would be controlled. How many of those have there been? Any idea?Of course what proof do we have that any of them were "real"? Maybe they just talked a good game.
