    Aren’t you a real author? Or have you demoted yourself to be a self-employed novelist?

    Yeah J.R.Ewing ... I remember the day I realized I was 40 years older and growing bald.

    Perhaps it was just gravity pulling the hair down.

    At least ... my eyebrows grew back!

    Since I need to stay on topic.... weren't most Mummies, actually Daddies?

    Power is power whether it is in use or not. For example the power stored in a battery (potential) is the same power when the battery is in use. Yes or no?

     

    No ... it's not ... that is why there are MANY different types and sizes of 12v batteries that you can buy, all at the same auto parts store ... once you put a load on them, that POTENTIAL energy behaves quite differently when actually doing work.

  3. We have not yet reached the million word mark for this thread, and under the rule of Universal Silliness, we are required to argue these points for the next several years.

    I have wasted MUCH of my life devoted to such things, and consider them now ALL .. light entertainment.

    Only.

    MANY years ago I lamented that Ecclesiastes 12:12 was my favorite scripture, as it expressed the burden of carrying around many heavy bags of sand on my back... loaded on by others.

    I am going to do the best I can, hope it's good enough ... sit back, and "watch the show"

    How many angels can dance on the head of a pin is irrelevant.

    I strongly suspect that soon enough ... too soon ... WE WILL ALL KNOW.

  4. I have five old, blind crippled dogs, and two young strays my wife took off the street.  I could buy a car with what I spend on Vet bills., dog food, and doggie Rx medications.

    But as I sit here typing, with my tongue I am trying to dislodge a sliver of beef baby back ribs from my molars.

    To me ... PETA means ... "People that Eat Tasty Animals".

    OOh OOh .. just had an IDEA!

    HOW you punctuate a sentence is important !

    " But as I sit here typing with my tongue,  I am trying to dislodge a sliver of beef baby,  back ribs from my molars. "

     

  5. WRONG AGAIN TTH:

    I am insulting stupid ideas ... wherever they are found.

    If the shoe fits, etc.

    In the Kingdom of Toontown, all the assembled cartoon characters seeing the Lion King on the pinnacle of rock overlooking them ... having his lion cub son presented to his loyal subjects ...  were fully aware that he was just letting his son look at the menu.

    ( ... The Lion King would have presented his son, himself, but the animators did not draw him any thumbs.)
