Re: I must not understand people
As for ""Xian" vs "Christian", the use of X as a symbol for Christ goes back centuries; there are different theories why, but the one I hear most is the "Chi" is symbolic of the cross, and is/was used by those who thought writing the name of Christ was somehow disrespectful or blasphemous. Xmas was...

Re: Just Putting This Here for the Record...
After the wind machine had been blowing for, let's say, the first thirty seconds or so, why didn't the reporter interrupt and demand that he answer the question she asked?

Re: Happy 4th
Next thing, lib will be moaning "wasn't Wimbledon better before 1968?" (Well, it was but that was the wooden rackets mostly). Not likely. lib doesn't strike me as the Wimbledon crowd. His tastes in sports, I'm sure, run more along the lines of NASCAR, UFC, WWE, and the rowdiness of the Waste Mana...
Re: Happy 4th
That lack of patriotism is evident in how unwilling people are to talk about a military draft, despite the fact that we need one. Our professional army has become too expensive. Retirement benefits are costing us far too much. What we truly need is a smaller, highly trained professional force, back...

https://i.imgur.com/TEmQE1T.jpeg She's talking, of course, about the whack-job conspiracy theory about "chemtrails"... which I thought had been debunked, like, back during the Bush administration. BUT — and that's an awfully big " BUT " — if chemtrails really ARE a thing and there is some kind of c...

http://www.theplanbforum.com/forum/download/file.php?id=1814&mode=view Anyone else wondering why there are few if any plans to recognize America's semiquincentennial? I know the word doesn't roll off the tongue nearly as easy as 'centennial' or 'bicentennial', nor do I expect a rehash of the ov...

Re: New York state of mind
I definitely agree but c’mon, this country is not ready to elect an openly avowed atheist. It can’t even elect a human with a uterus. There are are quite a few humans possessing uteri throughout the USA who have been elected by a majority vote. It's just a matter of time, especially since females m...

Re: Home for Random Thoughts
The stickers indicate the country of origin — and there's also probably a 4-digit 'look up' number printed on those stickers for the benefit of the person running the check-out counter. You'll see similar 4-digit numbers on stickers on things like apples, oranges, grapefruit, as well as on the pla...

Re: As the tanks rolled past the near empty stands...
The nation has grown, but the capital is still located on the East Coast. It should be relocated to a more central part of the country to make it more accessible to more of the people. I dare say there are far more people living within, let's say, a four-hour drive of Washington DC than there are w...

Re: How to make the world a better place:
Where your ancestors came from really depends on where you want to start. You could go back to Africa, to early humans, or you could go back to the first apes just before the arrival of modern man. Or, if you wanted to, you could go back to the dinosaurs. It's all really a matter of choice. Or if y...

Re: How to make the world a better place:
Not surprised that the village idiot didn't catch the sarcasm in the post of someone who in other posts calls South Asian people "pakis" and says that they are all mentally ill. Substitute "people of the steppes" for "pakis" and you've GOT the Village Idiot. https://www.picgifs.com/emoticons/smiley...
