  1. Oh that was a great and disastrous picture. mspart
  2. That's pretty good. My Ordinary Differential Equations teacher would write an equation on the board, step back, point his hands at the board and wiggle his fingers. And then he would produce the solution. Someone asked him how he know's the solution, and his answer was, "That is beyond the scope of this class." To which we all laughed. We need to memorize how it is done and not understand it. Which is what my Dad said he had to do when he took the class. mspart
  3. Regardless, the saying is true. mspart
  4. Does not look fun. Like climbing Everest - no thank you. mspart

  6. If they legislated and governed appropriately, you are correct. mspart
  7. This is the way I see it. Ds - They want to spend big so they can get reelected to spend more. Rs - They want the debt to be reduced but when they look around, they see that they have to spend more to get reelected. It is really the electorate that has been driving the free lunch thing and the elected officials oblige. When they don't, they get voted out. mspart
  8. Well, my wife's Aunts jelly was not hot. My wife overdid it with the habaneros, which you could smell through the house. The house smelled dangerous, really. I tried it and it was good, but I'm not much of a jelly guy. mspart
  9. Yep, you missed it Plasi. And it was soooooo good!! mspart
  10. Generally this may be true. As long as there is no speaker, there is no legislating going on. No legislating is a good thing. I generally think this way. But not being able to come together on a speaker is not a good thing. What is the big deal about speaker? Just vote them in and get on with it. Would this drive me to vote D? No, it would not. mspart
  11. He never said!! mspart
  12. That's the issue. There is no simple decency anymore. It has to be argued about forever. mspart
  13. I was in 20th century history in HS, the teacher was a hard nose but I did well in his class. We were looking at the Soviet bread basket, a huge area where all the food is grown. He showed a 16mm movie that detailed some of this and it was in color. I raised my hand and said that I didn't believe this was the Soviet Union because I thought it was in black and white. He gave me a pretty mean look as I was smiling at my joke. He actually was one of the best teachers I had in HS, but his manner was very intimidating. He told us that in war you don't want to get shot in the butt. It doesn't stop bleeding and you have to be on your gut while in recovery. I'm guessing he spoke from experience. Not sure. mspart
  14. It looks like JJ needs to give up. He ain't going to get there it appears. mspart
  15. Why is it that all those Nordic sports are dominated by northern Europeans? mspart
  16. Yeah, Hitler did just this way back in 1936 in Berlin to show the superiority of the Arian race. Jesse Owens ruined his week. mspart
  17. If legislative record were the marker, Jim wouldn't be in the running. Apparently that is not a thing. Has Hakeem Jeffries passed lots of legislation he authored? Is he qualified by his legislation writing prowess? I don't know, but he was up for the vote today. mspart
  18. It was even better than it looks!! mspart
  19. Answer to all is them thar ejumacators know whatz byist fer yer chilren. mspart
  20. He's paying for dinner for all of them chumps. He'll get them with free food!! mspart
  21. My dad would say, "it ain't worth doing if you don't do it right." Boy is that true. mspart
  22. My grandfather, who I never knew because he died 20 years before I was born, said once, my father reported, that "One boy is about as much use as 1/2 a man. Two boys are as much use as zero men." My dad grew up on a farm. mspart
  23. For you Dr. i, mspart
