Re: Trump threatens school vaccines

Vaccines that make it to market under normal circumstances having gone thru clinical trials aren’t really “new”. That process takes years and is quite extensive. They have usually been in the works for 7 to 10 years. That being said, I agree that is should largely be up to parents to decide whether...

And if a new, improved vaccine comes out then you're opposed to it?

Re: i remember

Los Angeles has hills. The TV stations were on a 5200-foot mountain, and even so most neighborhoods that the rich people wanted to live in had lousy TV reception. They had cable before most people in normal places had ever heard of it. Later on there were satellite dishes, but sometimes the canyons...

Re: i remember

I was able to change channels on the TV with my toes. I guess everyone has to have a talent. :) Changing the rotor for the antennae, was a different story. Ours would occasionally stick, so we had to go outside and yank on a rope that was tied to it. As for what I remember, it's not much. ADHD and ...

Have you looked at your Internet, software, and streaming subscriptions lately? Add 'em all up and it'll exceed what one phone line and a business listing ever cost, even after correcting for inflation. I have cable and I won't do streaming subscriptions because they're too expensive and mostly don...

Today I was trucking through Pennsylvania being passed by a young couple. They were so poor that they only had one cigarette. But, they were so devoted to each other that they were sharing it equally. One would take a puff pass it the other who would take a puff and pass it back. It's not often in ...

If you and I don't show up for work, and we're way past any realistic sick leave or excused absence, we don't get paid. If it happens too much, we get canned. If Congress critters don't show up, or show up and do nothing, they do get paid. There is no penalty at all. We should change this. Where I ...

Re: Time to Confront Biden's Age

Like I said in the past, many people are looking at two numbers; 81 and 91. Biden's age is 81 and the number of Trump's indictments is 91.

I'll take the number 81.

All my life I've been at the cutting edge. I get a lot of grief for things I say, but generally within 5 years the general consensus has caught up with me.
