I don't answer telephone calls from anyone I don't know or from any numbers I don't recognize.  I don't open e-mails from anyone I don't know.  Like Mom and Dad said, "Don't talk to strangers!"

The tires are worn.  The shocks are shot.  The steering is wobbly.  But the engine still runs fine.

Really, really good advice. Especially for us old folks who have two problems...we tend to trust people, and many of us suffer from CRS (a terrible disease).

Just going to run a Chromebook and not upgrade to a Windows computer. Too many problems with the new Sims! 😱
Trying to keep peace and harmony and the will of Landru on the site seems to be a full time job!

The one who needed the shave or the one you thought looked like Tom Cruise?

The one who needed the shave has that problem with computers.  His hand shakes are annoying when trying to use the mouse, or is it moose?.

He starts a VFR flight and can't remember where he is going.  He wants to add a new aircraft and forgets how to do it.

Is Firefox some animal from the Hunger Games?

If the plural of goose is geese, why isn't the plural of moose, meece?

Since the plural of mouse is mice, why isn't the plural of house, hice?

Solidifies my thoughts that it is time to go off grid and get back to the basics.

I've been rewatching Battlestar Galactica (which has aged very well and I love the analog instruments in the Vipers). Galactica was being turned into a museum at the beginning because it didn't have modern networked systems. The only thing that saved them from the Cylons.

Started to the bathroom and forgot how to get there, so I didn't see who was in the mirror. And that was the least of it.

My Italian teacher always told me how hard it was for her to learn English. Now I know why:

  1. The bandage was wound around the wound.
  2. The farm was used to produce produce.
  3. The dump was so full that it had to refuse more refuse.
  4. We must polish the Polish furniture.
  5. He could lead if he would get the lead out.
  6. Since there is no time like the present, he gave her the present.
  7. A bass was painted on the head of the bass drum.
  8. When shot at, the dove dove into the bushes.
  9. I did not object to the object.
  10. The insurance was invalid for the invalid.
  11. There was a row among the oarsmen about how to row.
  12. They were too close to the door to close it.
  13. The buck does funny things when the does are present

#7 could be taken one of two ways: bass (the fish) or bass (the large string instrument)...

Great catch. Or maybe even a gutbucket (washboard bass).

Last evening I watch Fantastic Journey about a medical team who were shrunk incredibly small and injected into a man with a brain tumor they couldn't get to from the outside into one of his arteries with syringe.  They travelled through his heart, lungs, inner ear and brain and zapped the tumor with laser.  All the while they were communicating with the people outside by Morse Code.

It's truly amazing what they can do nowadays. 😲
