It is clearly a book for the empowered woman. Of any era.
-
SWMBO wants to know, exactly what destination you plan to send your wife to, with this book??
-
I found it. Gutenberg Project has a free copy. Motoring has come a long way Even for males!

The world needs more Mark Carneys. Luckily he's taken over from Trudeau, who wouldn't have the intestinal fortitude to tell Trump to shove his trade and allies policies where the sun doesn't shine.

Celebrating Positives (offset of the Gripes Thread)
onetrack replied to Jerry_Atrick's topic in General Discussion
It's been a while since anything positive was posted in this thread - so to counter the negativity, here's some party photos! SWMBO and I went to a friends party (Christie, and she was 50) on Sat 17th. It was held at a local bowling club and we all had a good time - despite the fact I rarely go to parties now. Christie is a senior ER nurse, she's got a lovely nature. She laid on some great finger food, she had a DJ with some great 80's music, and there was dancing and good general fun. One of the most amusing parts of the evening was, Christie hired a portable photo booth for the evening and it came with a pile of props, and everyone had a ball with it! Christie is the girl in the blue, off-the-shoulder dress, and her daughter Molly (20) is in the white dress with the black images on it. Her younger brother Sam is in all black, and hubby Gary is wearing the check shirt. The images start at the bottom, where setup and testing the day before, produced some interesting "test" imagery, mostly involving Gary and Molly. See if you can spot OT and SWMBO, we're halfway down the images, posing with Christie, and I've got my best Elton John shades on. https://gallery.glowbooth.com.au/view/e85ec5e4-2f3e-4634-a126-076cff8346cd? -
I believe Albo has invited Carney to address the parliament in March. That won't go down well with Trump. Canada is a lot like us in many ways, and Trump will probably see the invitation as Albo undermining the US.

When I mentioned to SWMBO that a woman invented the windscreen wiper, she retorted - "That'd be right! Always doing the cleaning!!" 😄
-
Where can I get a copy for my wife?
-
And that is what is driving the US administration. Our problem is more about keeping a safe distance from the unravelling disaster. Please, Albo, keep your head down, below the crazy americans view. Please ditch AUKUS. They are more a liability than a trustworthy ally.

And dearest Leader DJT will that as meaning... "I better not lose my freedom & power NOW". He isn't in it for anybody but himself.

People WILL wake up eventually, and then watch Trump's reaction. He will go OFF his tiny Mind. Nev

In 1906, this chatty little handbook was released. It was called "The Woman and the Car". In the book, advice was given to women who chose to drive a car (gasp!), to .... 1. Carry a revolver, carry a small mirror for seeing behind them, for summoning help, and to also carry some chocolate (yes!) 2. The book also advised bringing hairpins, a pair of clean gloves, an extra handkerchief, a clean veil, and a powder puff for neatening up at the destination! I notice that there was no advice to wear goggles, which were pretty necessary for driving in 1906 due to a lack of proper windscreens, and very dusty unsealed roads. In incidental motoring news, a woman actually invented the first windscreen wiper!

It won't. Trump and his MAGA employees and MAGA adherents are psychopathic and perpetual liars. They will continue to lie bare-faced, and present completely alternate "facts" about events, even when faced with sworn judicial evidence. Everyone is crooked, but them.

Trump is ALWAYS RIGHT. ASK HIM. Nev

Clinton & Obama have weighed in on this describing it as "a moment that will shape history" urging Trump to "reconsider his approach saying “Over the course of a lifetime, we face only a few moments where the decisions we make and the actions we take will shape our history for years to come. This is one of them. If we give our freedoms away after 250 years, we might never get them back.” Prominent republicans & some of the original MAGA influencers, the most prominent Being Joe Rogan, have also been critical of Trump, Noem & ICE. Some commentators are likening ICE to the Gestapo in WW2. This has caused Trump to refuse to defend the ICE agent when asked & now say that the administration is "reviewing everything" about the incident. There will be no apology, ICE will get away with a review & a few sackings & the murderers will get off lightly. Trump will blame those he sacks as always though.

Correct. Replace "times" with X. TE times T becomes TEXT, equals MESSAGE TO times IN becomes TOXIN, POISON E times ?? becomes EXIT, equals LEAVE Edna’s birthday is on the 6th of April and Jen’s birthday falls on the 15th of October, therefore Amir’s birthday must be the ‘?’ of January.
-
Kristy Noem has jumped in to blame the victims in both ICE murders with no evidence and in fact with photographic, video and personal reports from witnesses to the contrary completely ignored. Hopefully this will be a wake up call for Trump & his appointed sycophants that continually lying will eventually catch up on them

Kristy Noam. Nev

And HE starts out Knowing Bugger all about anything REAL as well as his other BAD Personality traits. One good thing , he has ditched that Nasty Naomi? commentator on the Minneapolis events. Nev

Donald Trump had a fairly ironic – and perhaps telling – memory lapse. Talking with New York Magazine, Trump said that his father, Fred Trump, had no health problems except for one. “He had one problem,” Trump said. “At a certain age, about 86, 87, he started getting, what do they call it?” According to the reporter, Ben Terris, Trump pointed to his forehead and looked towards White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt. “Alzheimer’s,” she said. “Like an Alzheimer’s thing,” Trump continued. “Well, I don’t have it.” Terris then asked Trump if Alzheimer’s is a topic that’s on his mind. “No, I don’t think about it at all. You know why?” he said. “Because whatever it is, my attitude is whatever.” Terris also talked to Trump’s clinical psychologist niece, Mary Trump, who described watching her grandfather – Donald Trump’s father – succumb to the disease. She said that the symptoms started slowly and then advanced quickly. “One of the first times I noticed it was at some event where he was being honored,” she said. “And I looked at him and saw this deer-in-the-headlights look, like he had no idea where he was.” She said that she sees the same thing happening to her uncle. “Sometimes it does not seem like he’s oriented to time and place,” she said. “And on occasion, I do see that deer-in-the-headlights look.”

Trump has returned from Davos and issued a stern warning to Cuba to agree with his demands or he will blockade the country putting a stranglehold on oil and other commodities.

If lightning hits a dead tree, it will still travel down the tree to the ground (on the outside of the trunk), but it likely won't make the tree explode because of an inadequate level of sap in it. The reason trees explode when struck by lightning, is because the sap is superheated to steam instantaneously. The normal level of volatile eucalyptus oil naturally in the air, is at too low a level to be ignited by lightning. However, in a fire, heated trees close to the fire front can release large amounts of volatile oils that further exacerbates the fire strength. There is a known feature of bushfires, termed "a crown fire". A crown fire occurs in front of the main fire front, and is driven by strong winds, which send the fire front through the treetops, aided by the high level of volatile oils at the treetop level.

Move the spaces so they become dates - 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 20?? So the two numbers are 22. What two letters replace the question marks? TE times T equals MESSAGE TO times IN equals POISON E times ?? equals LEAVE
