Ambrose? Make room for Reg, will ya?

Very good. Excellent even.

Famous Jewish sports legends?

Funny.

Well lets see. Max Baer. Not sure of spelling. Hank Greenberg. And the biggest is Sandy Koufax.

Ya want a shorter list? Indian sports legends. I can’t think of any in USA. Maybe cricket or soccer. But wow there are a great many Indians and i don’t think sports is there thing.

Age 8 i bet a quarter against Tommy Doucette’s soft dictionary in a best of ten from the foul line. Used the heck out of that dictionary. Started reading from letter A.

So now there are two words in last two days that are courtesy of AZ added to the list of word licker linguistics. Mondegreen and cromulent. To remember cromulent just think of…[Read more]

Oh but what about all of the Indonesian Muslims? Stay home please.

Jews love Chinese restaurants. A stereotype with some backbone. I will say this. There are a great many bad Chinese restaurants. There is one near me called Discount Chinese Food. The name does not mislead. When they are good though wowzers. Incredible cuisine. Japanese seldom have bad restaurants and when they are Nobu no fooling they’re…[Read more]

Growing up my family befriended a Norwegian family. The rats moved back to Norway. Anyways i remember the father who was an engineer telling us how Jews who numbered so few in Norway dominated the admissions in engineering school and yet no apparent discrimination or racism was apparent. I have a feeling that is no longer the case since Norway is…[Read more]

Robert, good and fair take.

However, based on the pervasiveness of the lefty religion of secular Jew hate and how thoroughly indoctrinated so many who are or will be so prominent in the US it is a real threat. Don’t say nutting halal. It is insanely frustrating to see how stupid people are. Oh shut up Bonhoeffer! You should have renounced your…[Read more]

Reg, you’ve confused me with Enco. He hit us with a cromulent left hook. Was happy to learn a new word. Jejune is a word that i have/had a mental block. Have come across it too many times to have an excuse to need a dictionary or now internet. Never ever hear anybody use word but it is in so many books.

Harvard has a long history of discrimination against Jews. This lefty iteration of secular Jew hatred as an academic subject is such a joke.

I want to see the money trail from Qutar to Harvard. Who has been paid off? Anti Jew. Anti western. Anti intellectual. Smoothing the pathway for Islamism to penetrate USA and being partly responsible for the…[Read more]

Enco, i am torn betwen a requirement for Muslims before becoming US citizens. Should they be required to spit, urinate or defecate on their Quran?

And to all of the White bread ivy league students majoring in middle eastern studies and crying dodger blue for the Palestinians. Mandatory visits into the bowels of death cult hell. Encourage them to…[Read more]

Big bang. 13 billion years hence. Cromulent. Big splash.

Saving Private Ryan. Spielberg special. Still remember watching that and feeling sick to my stomach.

Far left. Far right. Without data to corroborate but i think it is a good bet far left is better educated than far right. Less conviction but perhaps higher in empathy as well. And yet i am not sure whether it is the lefties or the MAGA who are…[Read more]

No expert and just my impression but empathy is chacterized by creating a relatable impression that is experienced/felt when one organism observes another. Does not have to be same species. Mirror neurons and other neural junk whose name(s) escapes me and neural pathways are activated when something observed causes alarm or joy/ecstasy. If one is…[Read more]

Empathy is informed sympathy

Someone has told me they are an Empath. What is an Empath? Is there a Sympath as well?

@Unseen you made the exact point that I also thought. Empathy is the feeling when you can relate to an injury or event because you have been through similar events and you  feel knowledgable sympathy. You do not feel anyone else’s experience.

You hear people all the time saying their empathy forces them to feel everything (usually bad things) fr…[Read more]

I read this article this morning. In my head, I can’t trace the route from cell consciousness as described, to the almost non-sequitur of changing reality.

Basically they’re proposing that our cells have a consciousness and actually make decisions – and then somehow that affects reality and we’re reshaping our future.

Opinions would be super…[Read more]

Thanks Reg!!

Conservatism in older age may reflect disillusionment. Idk.

Have not read Bradbury since i was 12 or 13. Might be a good idea to order a few books and get reacquainted. If i come back and remember my prior life i may take his advice on how to become a writer.

Enjoyed listening to Ray Bradbury, ha?

Well i can’t argue Enco. You were present to assess the spirit of the comment.
