I have it on the very Highest Authority (M. Python) that Immanual Kant was a silly pissant.

I guess I am just demonstrating my membership as a mean old white man. I have always judged that the clothing with Versace labels were exercises in bad taste. I don't think I have ever before seen a picture of the individual responsible for this 'fashion statement"

I always get a little chuckle when the finite, ignorant, short-lived person announces they 'know' anything about the infinite, all-knowing, all-powerful. beyond time, manifestation of the divine creator of the universe. We don't even know what we don't know.

But it is fun to pretend.

O the evils on the border. The good Senator from Alabama is so wise. That is why she voted against the border reform bill she sponsored. She seemed so upset tonite about the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan, forgetting somehow it was Trump who commanded it would be done by that date. Yes that i...

Well, according to the bible (Galatians 3:27-28) There is no longer Jew or Greek, there is no longer slave or free, there is no longer male and female; for all of you are one in Christ Jesus.

Note he has already been the peoples's choice for Lt Governor. Here in Dele where the GOP shot itself in the foot in a a primary and rejected the incumbant Senator because he was not 'pure' enough and nominated a carpet-bagger witch. Yes Really. That's how democrat Coons got into the senate snailgate.

Actually I prefer analog over binary

We evovled from fish? I thought we evolved from star dust. That is why I celebrate the Eucharist with a Hoagy. In honor of St Carmichael. Yess Big RR, I believe in the universal binary condition. All Humanity can be divided into two types: those who believe it is all binary and those who do not. sna...

Back when I was working I would stop at a Starbucks at 6am for a cup of house blend. Same barista would serve me nearly every morning. Frequently she would say, "My mother always said, 'Little boys who are liars, grow up to be weather men' ". My favorite online weather service (Weather Underground) ...

Big, (may I call you by your first name?) I will attempt to answer your question. Simple two words.

Stupid. Ignorant.

See the entry above for the Miss Teen USA 2007. These two words seem to be almost incomprehensible to many people.

Yes, that percentage is very small. In my daily life I do not deal with thousands, or millions or even hundreds. The one person standing next to me is one person and I need a lot of data, not just gambling percentages, to judge just where on the bell curve that individual is on any particular human ...

I have seen a Fisker. At about 2:30pm, Feb 28, 2024, at the intersection of Delaware Rt 273 and Pulaski Hiway (old US40) Bear, DE, I was sitting at the light waiting for the green arrow so I could make at left turn onto 273. In front of me was a car I did not recognize. I crept forward to get a good...

I refer you to 'Touching a Nerve' by Patricia Churchland, 2013, which explores the physical structures of the brain as the basis for morality, empathy, aggression, free will. From paged 138: 1 in 650 births are XXY (Klinefelter syndrome) 1 in 1000 are born with XYY, 1 in 5000 are born with solo X (T...

BB, your faith in a binary system is remarkable. Have you no acquaintance or friend who has spent a decade or so working in a maternity/delivery room? It is assigned. After a cursory (the technical term of art is 'gross examination') look between the legs of the newborn, it is assigned. Perhaps afte...

Forgive me Joe, for my ignorance, but I thought all the medical procedures, surgery, chemicals, psychotherapy was intended to result in that very condition, that the person could then be comfortable in he/her/their skin.

Once upon a time I purchased six white dress shirts, custom made, from a source in Hong Kong. They were supposed to have my name, in Chinese pictograms rather than a Roman alphabet monogram. I always wondered what it REALLY said, but I never asked anybody who should have known and told me the truth....

Age or ageism is not Biden's only problem. This is a quote from a yahoo news summary of the Michigan primary: "Earlier on Tuesday, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre acknowledged that the conflict in Gaza was “deeply painful” for many Arab Americans and said that the president “cares abo...

All kinds of interesting questions now that I have not seen addressed. If the egg or sperm are from an anonymous donor, who is the custodial parent? If the donor was paid, is that human trafficking? Does the anonymous donor have liability for future care of the child? If the truck delivering liquid ...

Russia has broken the stalemate?

Russia is losing naval ships in the black sea. The supply lines for Crimea as drying up. Ukraine is now shipping food commodities in amounts slightly greater than before the Russian invasion. (source: BBC last night.)

All this official patriotism is interesting. The official rules say never display it flat (the way they do at big football games.) The official VFW rules say individuals in military uniform should NEVER say the pledge to the flag. All these rules are ignored by most. I suppose it is because they are...
