The conversation was about what was destroyed at the libraries, I mentioned some things which were saved, and were later used for maps which reveal that the ancients were accurately measuring the earth, and we know how that applies to the dimensions of the GP, don't we?
Then it's "libraries bad," how fickle, your library info is good, and mine is bad, how fickle.

Like archae saying that, sometimes, what he says, he really doesn't mean, you guys are very, shall we say, fickle (to be kind).
Well, I once knew an old librarian named Alexandria. She had some kind of blemish or wart or something on her face. It looked like a single Rice Krispie. As if one had fallen from her spoon that morning and rested unnoticed on her cheek, just below her left eye, for the rest of the day. Often we wondered how she could bear it. God knows, we couldn't!
But she was an old lady, and no one had accused her of even being "hot," much less "burning" for at least the last half century.
I had a nut board once. Had a built in nutcracker and everything. Handy little sucker to have around during the holidays. You know, when everyone's wantin' nuts and such. I'd crack pecans, walnuts, hickory nuts, Brazil nuts, macadamias, whatever you wanted. Well, except peanuts. Those I can crack by hand.DougWeller wrote:Jesus christ! You didn't make a point, you made a facile comments about one of your beliefs that you can find all over the nut boards. Nothing I say will change your mind, you are only after publicity. I know the issues, look at my web site but don't expect me to try to overcome your belief that you are right and everyone else is wrong.
The sucker came with those pointy nut pickers, you know, the kind that you can pull out the pecan parts with. Man you have to watch out for those things, they are sharp Put one up my nose once, like to have never quit bleeding.
And, oh yeah, by the way, doesn't this damn board have an "ignore" button, or are we too dadgum polite for such a barbaric device?

No on the Ignore Feature.

Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.
