I was born in 1937 and that was 1941. I remember that day very well and hearing his words on the radio. My mom began to weep. I knew something very bad had happened. It is engraved inside my brain.I remember rationing. We gave up butter to build guns. Having what was needed to bake a cake was rare. Women (Rosy the riveter) went to work as men went to war. We were all in this together and took pride in it. We did not blame one another. No time for that. We had a war to win and those who stayed at home were part of that war effort.9/11 was terrible but I live in California so it was far away. We were all in this together and the world embraced us. For a time. The president we had then was a different one than we have now. He stood up and said words that were comforting. Subsequently he lied and got us into an unnecessary war which we are still f... less

Sometimes mine but far more often that of others.I KNOW the difference between truth and fiction.In my real life I demand TRUTH. Fiction doesn't cut it. Fiction means I'm lied to. A pox on fictionaters who pose as truthtellers.In my not-reality-life I adore make believe. Whatever the mind can conceive no matter how far fetched or "impossible".I am intelligent enough to not conflate the two. Are you? Do you buy whatever da big cheese sells you or are you selective cogent coherent and paying attention? less

Who will do the work when the workers get sick and die?GUESS HOO?The obscenely wealthy patricians. The owners the movers the shakers. They will actually have to get off their at arses get down in the trenches and go to work!Hahahahahahahaha. I didn't tell you it was a comedy. No way in He** will you see da big cheese actually doing WORK. That's for the underlings. Da big cheese isn't alone in that view. All the obscenely wealthy movers and shakers who get first crack at everything are in the same boat. Maybe they were born to wealth like da big cheese and never had to work a day in their lives. Maybe they did earn their wealth all alone on their own and made their fortune in which case turned into snobs just like those who were always wealthy and forget where they came from.I don't know anything about their ilk but I wonder if it came to that how many of them would drown because they never had to learn... less

It is above my brain grade and far too esoteric/profound for me to grasp! Your turn.

He knows the more money they make the more certain they will vote for him againWell now the economy is in the terlet. That's all he has to count on and with that gone he will get crushed.So what's a few millions lives to give up to make sure he will survive?

Dressed in his comfy jammies lying in bed watching more TV than is healthy for him he tweets his rage away every moment of every day when he isn't devouring cheeseburgers. He does only that because well he is basically lazy and he lets his fingers do the working.So with or without the Russia Investigations doing nothing about the Coronavirus though he was WARNED MORE THAN ONCE in early January is a load of sh**. Anyway whoever consumes what he barfs out deserves the follow up...dry heaves and pain and misery day after day after day after day.Just an opinion of an outside observer bystander opinionated homo sap.

He has to learn how to adjust to his new reality.Well so do we Americans have to adjust to our new reality. One day we were normal ordinary typical average human beings. Now we are part of a huge monstrous vermin and trying to adjust to that is not easy.You do not metamorphosize back to your orginal state so this is our new normal. How do you like so far? less

Then he dies and as the life goes out of him you see him transformed into something very ugly and hard to look at. You see he had a portrait hidden in a closet that did all the aging transforming while time went by. At death he became what the portrait was and the portrait like magic was returned to what he looked like as a young man.I was thinking WHAT IF homo saps were unable to hide whom they are? What if, like the picture, each evil deed/word would manifest itself in their outward appearance? How they treated others. If they lied betrayed sabotaged undercut harmed it would all appear on the body the faces the appendages? What you see would be what you get. No amount of makeup or plastic surgery could change a thing. You would be able to judge the book by its cover absolutely.Would there be more gargoyles than things of beauty? Gnarled and wrinkled with all the evil they did/said etched on their faces? Would they all hide u... less

Me me me. Fops and Popinjays. Appearance is all important.People sell themselves everyday. The prettier/handsomer among them get more attention. So of course the lifelong quest is to be noticed wanted admired purchased.Now if we weren't so dam*ed enthralled with our outsides might we do better improving our insides?How about brain/mind maintenance? Who does that? What about honor integrity justice truth? No one cares any longer about any of that.Power is all. Do anything to get that.

A Pumpkina** devotee sez he is willing to die to get the economy rolling again. Old people die anyway. Why worry WHEN if it can help get folks back on their feet? So some die? So what?So you read it here loud and clear.:Pumpkina** supports DEATH for old people sick people poor people which is a necessity to get the economy back so he can brag about it and get re-elected. It's not brain surgery. Follow the money stupid!See? Now that isn't so hard to comprehend is it? I thought not.The party that advocates DEATH sooner rather than later is all to get worthy people back in the saddle.The ones who die would nave died anyway. What's the big deal? Who said life is fair? GET A GRIP.Know what comes next?LOGAN'S RUN. less
