My wife seems to think that when I’m watching television or listening to the radio that I keep the volume much too high, which causes her to have to raise her voice in order to be heard over the program. I contend that when she knows I’m trying to hear a program and she starts talking over the dialogue, that’s what causes me to raise the volume. If I were not trying to hear a program, it would be quite a different thing, and we do talk with each other on those occasions.She often seems to have no inkling whatsoever that the precise reason the program is on is that I am following what’s being said.When the situation is reversed and she is the one watching a show, her way of listening and following dialogue differs so greatly than mine in that she doesn’t focus on nor care about each word that’s being said.It sometimes boils down to, “Why is the volume so loud?”“Because I’m trying to hear it.””But I’m talking to you.”... less

Yes A duck orange from toe to dyed head of hair implants. He quacks a lot.I wonder if they know what they did when they did that? Millions of them revoted for the orange duck. I guess they just couldn't get enough of it. Duck lost but will not admit and keeps fighting to overturn upend destroy the American election process. He is doing a fine job delaying things and may well cause deaths and harm to the country he swore to protect and defend. He is relentless and ruthless. A bad duck. less

Because he plans to run for president in 2024 (the duck doesn't know that) and he believe he is presidenting by doing that sucking up to Jewish folks so the evangelicals will support him unless the duck does in fact again.
