I was sitting around thinking the other day and the thought came to for the mission statement of all life (animal, vegetative and mineral) on earth. The only mission we all have is...
To survive And procreate.

We went from everybody gets a trophy, to everybody gets a college degree and now both mean very little.

Why?

Who wants to bet that if Trump wins the election that Biden will quit the Presidency so that Kamala can be the first female president?

Without stating a preference for a presidential candidate (anyone who has been around here for eight years or so would know anyhow), something intrigues me. The mainstream media and liberal left (but I repeat myself), have been calling and comparing a certain candidate and his followers Hitler and the NAZI Party. Wasn't there Godwin's law on the internet forum pages that started off you invoked the NAZI party or Hitler that the argument was over and that you had lost it? :shock:

I was just sitting down o do some work on the computer (other than gaming, see other post of today's date) and opened a CAD file o work on a fin pattern for a rebuild I'm working on. Well, at home I use a modern trackball (shaped like a mouse but you use your thumb to move a stationary ball set in the side) while at work I have always used a mouse of one kind or another (some gaming mice come with up to 20 odd buttons to set often used commands). Well, I opened the CAD file and started trying to move the curser around with no luck. :(

After a few seconds of mental gymnastics I realized I was picking up the trackball and moving it around like it was a mouse. Mr Pavlov, about those dogs... :lol:

that's what's known in the olden days as a "double standard"... which doesn't exist for the woke left anyway (they couldn't understand it if even you tried to explain it-- not enough brainpower).
