    "I'm a doctor, not a brick layer"

    The "what if of WW2 episode." WW2 and life are full of what ifs. Edith Keeler was an accident waiting to happen. First the stairs and she then didn't look both ways. Didn't her mother teach her to do that? Stone knives and bearskins. My only question is where did Spock's computer get the data...

    Annoying TV ads part 15

    Top of the list is just about anything with children in it. Particularly used as a marketing tool. (I make an exception for the Shriners Children's hospital.) But the Kars4Kids song should be outlawed. And for those in the country not graced with Publix stores, I offer them as an alternative to...

    NAPA GOLD FILTERS........... AHHHH NO

    Yes. I'm also against "slave labor". And won't buy those things if given the choice. People say "It's not about the money, it's the principle of the thing". But it's usually about the money. Sometimes it really is the principle of the thing. Segue: What was the Spock quote? "I like to think...

    NAPA GOLD FILTERS........... AHHHH NO

    That was a lot of work when you could just look on the box. But I guess people have to be shown. If it says China on it don't buy it if you have a choice. I've been saying that for a generation now. From the internet: It also is "the average period, generally considered to be about 20–⁠30...

    Lowe's treated me well imo.....way better than HD ever did!

    I only go to Home Deplore if Lowes doesn't have it. HD is where the morons and the ....um er..... "contractors" seem to shop. And notoriously hang out in some places. I've almost had my door taken off in the parking lot. And I've seen a pick up truck parked in a space close to the store with...

    Jay Leno Granted Conservatorship of His Wife Mavis

    I looked it up. I know nothing more than this. I guess it could be Alzheimer's. But I'm also guessing if it was Alzheimer's they might say it. "Dementia is a general term for a decline in mental ability severe enough to interfere with daily life, while Alzheimer's is a specific disease...

    Jay Leno Granted Conservatorship of His Wife Mavis

    When I was young and needed something a good guy who was well off helped me. It got him. People took advantage of him. A cruel thing it is.

    A star is born.

    "Welfare wheels" implies the car was given to you. And that's more appropriate to some "rims" perhaps. I think "poverty" or "business" look for dog dish HUB CAPS is much better. Frugality is not a bad thing. There once was a psychiatric patient who thought he was Jesus. All the doctors had...

    A star is born.

    He was probably born in a trunk. And "Very Umble" as well.

    I've been scarce around here lately. Here is what happened.

    My yuppie son and I were going into an event and I told the young girl taking money she had cool hair. It was green or blue. Can't remember. She had lots of bling on too. As we walked on my son said what I did was creepy. He told me he had been with his friends on some work trip at a resort when...
