“what the country has done for each of us, and… what we can do for the country”….source

And….citizens should be “less concerned about what the government can do… and more… what it can do for the nation”…..Warren G. Harding.

Alas, this doesn’t give the Eighteenth Century origin of the quote, it just shows how pernicious it’s influence is.

Now that you’ve got your rest, I can address quotes and our previous topic.

Good walk spoiled? Thought it was Harvey Penick. Wa’nt. Wa’nt Twain either. Mark that and fathom that. John Feinstein wrote a book of that title but wa’nt his quote not by a mile. Hittin a ball. Hittin it foul. Hittin it long and straight wipes off that scowl…

What happened to the Forums space? I wanted to post in Small Talk and I get “Page Not Found.”

WTH?!!!

The trouble with believing anything and nothing at the same time.

The problem with this article is that it treats science like a belief on a par with religion or even on a par with: “I believe I’ll have another drink.”

Science is not a belief. Science is the only game in town to understand and get around town when “town” is the Natural…[Read more]

PopeBesnie,

Wait, the cows keep from exploding by farting. Also, if burning the methane gas releases Carbon Dioxide and water, how does that reduce Global Warming, which is supposed to be from human-generated Carbon Dioxide.

This sounds like a AI solution in search of a problem, not to mention cruel to the cow if the cow is not anesthetized.

AI is unlocking new treatments for diseases once thought to be incurable

AI could do countless wonders for healhspan and lifespan, if only humans didn’t use it for stupid slop like this:

Authoritarianists say and do the damndest things. I want to hear a lot more from Rand Paul. I there’s growing opportunity to bump Trump, and pull some GOP over.

In light of him losing support in USA, I wonder if he’s thought about inviting Xi, Vlad, and other authoritarians to the most exclusive kinds of golf events. He should have enough money to buy an island or two. Maybe Epstein’s.

Mark Twain described golf as “a good walk spoiled.”. Only Trump and Friends cold turn a good walk spo…[Read more]

I notice something when I started watching a Tucker Carlson video interviewing the Pope/Grand Inquisitor Hopeful Carrie Prejean Boller: A couple of the ads that popped up were actually full-length videos from the Hoover Institute’s “GoodFellas” Podcast and “The Ben Shapiro Show”, and a Stand Together Video, all espousers of…[Read more]
