Snakes and Ladders.

Tiddlywinks.

Marbles.

Though I always wanted to win.

Don't all games stimulate an element of competitiveness?

Japanese animated porn is certainly affective and explorative without being exploitative.

Perfect porn for sexually unstable geeks.

Does it come with free tissues?

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.

I appreciate your tolerance and understanding.

I'm guessing that you have older male relatives.

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.

There's a time for rest and a time to hiss.

Hmmmmmmmmm.

Never heard children referred to as pussies, over here in the UK.

But yes, it's become a very provocative word.

More tautology required then.

Atheist Doc.

Atheist.

Protestants are as daft as Catholics....Just servants of two competing multinational business empires.

Top of the morning to ya.

Only if critics are allowed to criticise and the criticised are prepared to listen.

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.

If one just said,

She's A Cat,

And left it at that..

One might require, 

For reference

A tautological inference.

Like Pussy.

 

In so much as.

Was John taking notes?

Is that you lurking in the Bushes?

I like to lurk in both backyards and front gardens.

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.

I like the juicy fruits from the tree of sin, and worship the hissing serpent.

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.

At the end of the day Doc, where did the other 40 widgets go?

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?

All's well that ends well.

Stupendously near.

Trumpets blaring.

Who said?

Jesus or John.

Why would Jesus answer himself?

Unless he was mad, of course.

Ahhhh...Perhaps you just hit the nail on the head.

Well, that's you then.

HaHa.

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.

Begorrah.

The Rottweiler's name was mister cute-ass.

The apostles adored him.

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.

Huge cakes...Yum Yum.

What's your favourite?

Mine is a fruit cake.

Though I'm not picky.

People like to believe all sorts of stuff.

I personally do not believe in anything.

Not to mention those gamma-ass Irish tater boys.

Top of the morning Doc.

I love Bluetits.

Bang on.

Maybe.

Adequately.

What's up Doc.

Adrift.

Somewhere.

Occasionally,

Bumping into,

Me and you.

Good to hear.

So we have decided to skip the EV and wait for the teleporter.

Hey Mooze.

In the USA...People shoot and people kill.

Guns and shooting is what the USA is all about.

Not sure that it even made the TV News in the UK.

Not that I watch the News.

Only two dead.

No big deal.

Just a bit of temporary hugging and tears, and hollow words of sympathy.

Thanks FLRW.

And for sure, no Taliban...But don't underestimate Greenlanders.

They're proficient at shooting Seals at long range, in sub-zero conditions.

And clever Mr Vance wasn't quite expecting sub-zero temperatures to be quite so sub-zero. Ha Ha.

But what should we expect from a bloke that keeps forgetting his own name?

Thankfully you didn't.

We must have a get together soon and invite Shila.

Just give me the nod and I will get Mrs Zed to get the wax and oil out.

Hope that you are both keeping fit and buff too.

Yep, them too.

But regionally I was referring to Mesopotamian peoples.

Though everywhere that people existed at any given time in the past, then said people would have been doing stuff.

Bit silly to think that people just stood around motionless for millennia, not thinking  or doing stuff.

Tin-pot...Having or showing poor leadership or organisation.

Perhaps not a commonly used America English term.

A tad bit of unnecessary conflating there Doc and Shila.

Darwin proposed a theory of species development.

Other people did other stuff...Like, founded an international business empire based upon a non-scientific Middle Eastern creation and existence hypothesis, and named it Roman Catholicism.

Can't blame Charles Darwin for all the ills of human society.

Top of the morning to ya both.

Yep.

But.

A. The idea of other beings that live in the sky somewhere, has been around for millennia...Cayce just put his spin on it.

B. There is no reason why alien interventionists would not be of flesh and bone...It's was/is perhaps more logical to think that they are.

C. The James Webb telescope has not found evidence of life on another planet...The James Webb telescope might have identified a planet, that might possibly support the development of living tissue..

You weren't going to talk about Cayce, but you did.

Nonetheless, I often promote the Idea of Alien seeding, as a potential Life on Earth hypothesis.

Though I also remain sceptical.

And the question of who seeded the seeders is irresolvable.

Though I would suggest that what is reasonably certain, is that any such alien visitation would have occurred millions, if not billions of years ago.

Whether or not said visitors have kept an eye on things since, is perhaps what you are alluding to.

And whether or not the seeders have made contact through specific individuals, is therefore also pertinent..

Nonetheless, a whole lot of clairvoyant speculation and no real evidence.

Hmmmmmmmmm.

Apologies for yapping.

But

If you actually read my reply to you.

1. I implied that MAD was still still our biggest defence against a tin-pot dictators ideological bluster.

2. In terms of survival after the total breakdown of human society, someone or something will probably survive and eventually re-proliferate.

3. We are entering a new era of technological dominance, wherein an alternative decision maker might recognise the error of our ways.

Though that restated.

I don't see that the three events you draw attention to, actually address your opening enquiry.

Nonetheless, I'm guessing that a "Nuke" would make a right mess of my city.

And here I would cite the experiences of Hiroshima and Nagasaki...(And their subsequent recovery).

And also the fact that the US is the only Nation to have used "Nukes" in anger.

And that currently the US is also headed by a tin-pot dictator. 

Notwithstanding that I live 50 miles to the  south west of the nearest City.

So hopefully prevailing south westerlies will be blowing at the time.
