  1. (Slight diversion: I have the same problem texting. I've changed to using voice to text. I mentioned it at the Shed, and a mate got Siri to type the text then read it back to check she got it right before sending. That may help you.)
  2. Trump has ordered DOGE to audit the IRS

    Quickies part 2

    Under capitalism, man exploits man. Under socialism, it's the exact opposite.
  4. They'd have a tough time trying to satisfy you.
  5. A guy went for a holiday on a pig farm. For breakfast, they had eggs and bacon. For lunch it was ham sandwiches. In the evening, they had pork chops or roast pork. The guy said to the farmer, "This tea tastes strange." The farmer said, "Yes, we use bore water." The guy said, "Gee, you don't waste much of the pig, do you?"
  6. Both of them belong in GITMO.
  7. GON. You are always sprouting what a wonderful fellow the orange buffoon is. Here is a summary of his his achievements so far.
  8. Let them all catch ebola. That will teach them.
  9. Got my schedule for the hospital visit to fix my pacemaker problem. Check-in at 10:30 am next Friday, overnight stay, and no driving for two weeks.
  10. You are riding the same old hobby horse like your complaints about AEC. Complain complain complain. You must be a bitter miserable person to know. Lighten up a bit.
  11. There is currently a global boycott of Tesla vehicles, US voters are calling the Senate and House switchboards hammering lawmakers with 2,000 calls a minute, Trump's polling numbers are dramatically falling.
  12. One of Australia's first commercial wind farms has been earmarked for decommissioning after its owners ruled out replacing aging turbines due to cost. The Codrington Wind Farm opened near Port Fairy in south-west Victoria in July 2001, marking a new frontier in renewable energy in Australia. The site was deemed "close to perfect" due to its strong prevailing winds off the Southern Ocean when Premier Steve Bracks opened what was at the time Australia's largest wind farm.
  13. While Elon Musk seizes control of federal agencies and illegally cuts funding to essential services like food aid and cancer research, Trump quietly rewards him with nearly half a BILLION in taxpayer money for armored Cyber Trucks. This isn't a government; it's a heist.
  14. When we did away with 1c and 2c coins, the odd cents remained on the price of most things. On a grocery lists, they evened themselves out to within five cents. When you got to the total, the amount was rounded up or down. A total of $xx.47 became $xx.45, and $xx.48 becane $xx.50. Over a trolley of groceries, the win or loss was no more than 3c, and over a period of time the wins and losses cancelled each other out. I haven't paid cash at a register for more than 20 years. Ahhh, fantastic plastic. I don't have a bank ap to pay by waving the phone.
  15. Are you playing silly buggers or are you really that thick?
  16. Well that was a surprise. I had an appointment with my cardiologist this morning (or rather this afternoon after spending 3/4 of an hour in the waiting room). I thought it wa a regular reading of data stored in the pacemaker, but after the reading he said "You'll have to have a procedure. One of the wires is loose. Get a blood test and we will let you know when the booking has been made in the hospital, probably Friday."
