Take care.
Silica is found in both marble and granite.
Silicosis is a serious disease, associated with stone working.

Stone cutting, very bad for the lungs.
Hope you use appropriate dust filtering apparatus.
And if one does something regularly, one will inevitably get more proficient.
Such as pulling up.
Or eating 20 burgers and fries per day. (In between meals)
So exercising legs will inevitably make one more proficient at moving in a bipedal fashion.
Whereas cellulitis, ulcers and surgical stockings are not a sexy look.

I prefer triangles.
Cheese triangles.
Which come in a circular box.
So one side is curved.
Magic.
Magic tucker down by the billabong.

Over here, we're not big corn on the cob fans.
We like our corn cooked, dried, rolled and boxed, with cold milk and perhaps a sweet additive.
Thanks to Mr Kellogg, from Tyrone Michigan.
Though I prefer oats.
Not sure what Jorge Mario Bergoglio prefers.
Eggs Benedict perhaps.
Do you think that the Cardinals will go all out on equality and inclusivity this time.
Will we see the first ever Black Lesbian Transsexual Pope.

Maybe.
But I think that Vance was expecting it to be green.
He probably thought that Iceland was the icy one.
Just like he thinks that Turkey is for Thanksgiving.
And China is fragile.

It remains an eyewitness account.
In so much as, what went down was witnessed by Jesus's boyfriend, who told someone else, who told someone else, who told someone else, who jotted it down and gave it to someone else, who translated it and jotted it down and gave it to someone else, who translated it again and jotted it down and gave it to someone else.
Eventually it ended up being jotted down and included in a best seller, that was translated and transcribed into many languages many times.
Such is an eyewitness account.

Mature for my age.
Mature in thought, or comparatively more mature in terms of physiological development?
Though some might argue, that we are all as mature as our age dictates.

Analogically speaking, I do.
Though we issue words for dramatic effect, such as "finding joy in the beauty".
Nonetheless, GOD principle is sound, but of course we could always refer to it as something else...But GOD has become sort of standardised.
Though when hypothesising creation and existence, I sometimes use the acronym ISI, which refers to an Interventionist Super-Intelligence.
Though ISI doesn't stand on a balcony in Rome going blah de blah de blah.

Japanese animated porn is certainly affective and explorative without being exploitative.
Perfect porn for sexually unstable geeks.

So John wrote John in the courtroom?
Funny thing is, when one researches such matters there is no conclusive data available.
Though it is generally agreed that The Book of John was compiled sometime after Jesus's execution, and not necessarily written by John.
In fact, it's all a bit sketchy and hotchpotch.

You are showing appropriate behaviour for your kind.
I appreciate your tolerance and understanding.
I'm guessing that you have older male relatives.

@Shila
Yep, for sure Deb.
Evil is like rotten cheese.
Whereas bad cheese is just cheese that doesn't taste particularly nice.
So in the middle of the cheese spectrum, there is generally good cheese...Sort of, everyday sandwich cheese.
And then at the ultra-violet end, is superb cheese...Maybe to be enjoyed upon a light cracker, with a glass of fine wine.
Similarly there is fine wine at one spectral end...And Gnat's piss at the other...In the middle is cheap but palatable.
Of course the more pissed one becomes, the more palatable Gnat's piss becomes.
I speak from past experiences.

Hmmmmmm.
A single rate of any social tax, is relative to income, so it doesn't matter who earns what and how much they earn.
I don't see why a sensible lower earner would necessarily spend more relative to their income.
In fact, I'm guessing that a higher earner will spend more on higher value goods.
Tax is only regressive because there are a higher proportion of low earners to higher earners.
Of course there are always a few dorks who will waste their money on widgets.
And also high earning misers, Mr Scrooge.

My laptop briefly stimulates my brain. (Like at this moment).
But I have no desire to be continuously connected.
I have other things to do...And at these times, I do not wish to be interrupted with insidious prattle.

Well, this national identity thing ain't going away any time soon, so one has to run with it.
And neither is human beings killing each other in the name of nationalism going to abate anytime in the foreseeable future, so we must run with that too.
Therein lies a seemingly contradictory conundrum.
We pick sides and condemn violence, whilst simultaneously picking a side and justifying their violence.

Hey, so someone elevates these mere mortals to positions of demigoddery and the rest of us are supposed to be so overwhelmingly affected by their inevitable demise.
Pope was just one of thousands who died on Monday.
Don't expect me to be bleating along with the rest of the flock.

Freedom of thought currently allows us to hold seemingly contradictory points of view.
Freedom to air those views is somewhat more tenuous these days.
I personally, support both Israel and Palestine, whilst simultaneously not supporting either Israel or Palestine.
Have I made myself clear?

And to top it all The Pope dies.
So Donald being a devout Catholic is off to the funeral with Melania.
Do you think that he fancies his chances as the first Orange Pope.

I neither need nor have a smartphone.
My communication device cost £19.99 and costs me £1 per week to use.
Not that I use it much.
Since the demise of the telephone kiosk, a personal phone is an essential bit of hiking/cycling kit.
