I prefer stairs when available.

Health nut.

This body doesn't come for free.

Neither did mine. Lot of groceries went into it.

@Jolly 555

Yup. that's what I thought.

Your comment implied it was a lot cheaper back then so nobody worried about gas.

I guess you can interpret it that way. However, my comment shows that transportation, per mile, is marginally cheaper now than it was back then.

9/11 was a very particular case too. What earthly difference does that make? Just because they’re not slaughtering a coed every day we shouldn’t worry about it?

I never understood how folks can actually "not like" certain musicians , though their musical ability is near god like. Hell give me more physical antics while playing I say. Show their human side. The hate for Lang Lang years ago, it was a real thing, and I never understood why. There must be some unwritten rules of decorum when playing in public I guess. Maybe some see it as showing off, I never felt that though. Gould is quirky yes, but my god, watch and listen, giminy christmas, this guy is so good, any piano player watching him immediately becomes a little bit better at what they are doing. For reals...

Time Out:

Fun. I particularly liked the Rob Reiner one.

You just liked that one because it was The Red Headed Libertarian that posted the reply…

He looks a little like Harry Ellis in Die Hard.

That is good advice.

The sign you see pilots hang on the new co-pilot’s side says,

Don’t touch anything.

That’s a woman who really doesn’t like glasses.

Yeah, she hated glasses. After years of contact lenses, she became dificult to fit for lenses (I don't know why). Opthamologist recommended PRK.

Hurt like a sonofabitch for about a week. But, years later, she's happy she had it done.

Shape of the cornea. Some people are extremely hard to fit

You should have seen the way the Amazon app rendered on my old Motorola MicroTac.

@Mik said in You know those "display doors" at Walgreens?:

Clear glass - working fine since 100 AD.

👍 😂 😂 😂

Interestingly Mexico vaccinates their chickens. It adds a little cost in good times but looks damn cheap during a cull.

Ferris Bueller would fit right in with this administration.

Not that I condone fascism, or any -ism for that matter. -Ism's in my opinion are not good. A person should not believe in an -ism, he should believe in himself. I quote John Lennon, "I don't believe in Beatles, I just believe in me." Good point there. After all, he was the walrus. I could be the walrus. I'd still have to bum rides off people.

You're still here? It's over!

Well, we at least know one who wasn't. Now to weed out the other 349,999,999

Cheap(ish) Scotch...all over the keyboard.

@George-K

You regulate the casino!

Are you confusing her with Mike Johnson?
