Re: Home for Random Thoughts
Sophomoric? Certainly. But you take your laughs, small or big, where you find them. Somehow, I could easily see Steven Cobert making this exact joke (he's made far more sophomoric ones about Trump in his monologues) and he's paid millions.

Re: I don't care who you are, that's funny right there
Were they killed or turned into zombies? Is there a difference? I think I saw that movie. And, FWIW, it reminds me of the Vietnamese and what they did to the french planters (and the Vietnamese had a lot less melanin), or what we later di to the Vietnamese a bit later (and while we had many "high me...

The Truth vs Alex Jones
I just saw this new HBO documentary yesterday; it covers Alex Jones (an idiotic broadcaster of some asinine show called "Infowars" who kept pushing the theory that the sandy hook massacre was a hoax planned by the government to take our firearms, and kept it up, attacking the families for over 10 ye...

Re: Home for Random Thoughts
I've seen the same thing; it is safer and the bonus is that the fines are a good way to pay for the road maintenance.

Re: I don't care who you are, that's funny right there
Liberty--who are "liberal researchers" and how do you characterize them as such? As for Do you agree with these liberals that a person’s racial identity can be determined by looking at his skull? I have not researched it and I do not know. But we were talking about DNA genotypes before, and I do kno...

Re: Home for Random Thoughts
Sue--that sounds like one of the circles that should have been gotten rid of a while ago--lots of traffic and ramps. Is still think circles work best on less traveled roads ad save the need for traffic lights; in light-medium traffic, they are easier to navigate than stop sign crossing a main road. ...

Re: I don't care who you are, that's funny right there
I'm sorry that you find my perception uncomfortable, and I remind you I made no definite statements, but what is, is. I'm sorry I wasn't more clear; it doesn't make me uncomfortable. But, I do find it ridiculous. I am sorry if that is an inconvenient truth. With regard to racial groups it is not a ...

I have also heard them called rotaries, but I think that might be from people who originally lived a bit west of NJ.(or "circle" as we call them here)

Re: Home for Random Thoughts
When I worked as a safety consultant in the chemical industry (back in the days when slide rules were almost as common as calculators), the joke was that engineers calculate everything to the fourth or fifth decimal place (they usually had he calculators) and then double or triple it for a safety fa...

BB--thanks for the update.

I just heard about it; Baltimore will feel the effects for a long time. I heard it was a tanker that hit the bridge, but haven't heard anything about an oil spill.

Re: Thanks for the diabetes, Jesus
True--but it reminds me of the old George Carlin joke--if Jesus had been around now [60s/70s] all the kids in catholic school would wear electric chairs around their necks.

Re: Thanks for the diabetes, Jesus
I don't know--using the cross, a symbol of execution (with no other uses AFAIK) to sell food is quite strange. What's next, guillotine displays to celebrate Bastille Day?

Re: Home for Random Thoughts
I wouldn't think that the costs would be that high, but I guess cost savings would be a reason. However, I think lights and roundabouts only cause more problems/inconveniences for motorists and if lights are installed, the roundabouts should be removed eventually.

Re: Home for Random Thoughts
I can see that Meade, but when the traffic signal is installed, why keep the roundabout? Just use the signal to control the access to each lane. Looking at the photo in you attached article, people generally have the need to proceed straight, left, or right, and a properly timed signal could expedit...
