Oh, BTW -- this probably won't end well.

Sorry Dan - guess you have to think for it this time.

    Raising a child is akin to knowing you're getting fired in 18 years and having to train your replacement without actively sabotaging them.

    Sal; Whatever your reason for posting this, I'm taking it as a compliment. Thank you.

      If true, then the superstitionists are just waiting for science to catch up.

      Claude, I was talking about this thread. I don't see this going off the rails.

            I can smell your sarcasm and it is potent.

        You may be right on this one.

        The new thread on Astrology? We'll see.

          My "Oh shit, here goes the neighborhood" meter is pretty accurate.

            So is mine. Especially right after you call and say "Hey Claude, I'm coming to your neighborhood".

          Wouldn't expect either you or Dan to "get" the astrology thread. I think you have to be live-born rather than hatched to actually have a horoscope.

            And now we know the answer to that age old question;

            "Which came first, the Riffle or the egg?"

      Just like I said - I just posted it because when I saw it, it screamed Claude at me. Thought it was funny that something like this would scream to me like that so had to post it. It's neither insult nor compliment.... it was just an image that was so strong that I had to post it to you. I would do the same for any warrrior that I thought of so strongly when I saw a pic because I find it amusing when things said remind me very strongly of specific people.

      That's all.

        Faith healers don't work in hospitals, they only work in churches. Churches in the US are so well attended that faith healers are able to heal on mass and do preventive maintenance so the hospitals are not overwhelmed with sick people.

        Physics don't do the lottery, they just do scratch offs. That's why I have never won anything big on a scratch off. The psychics have already won the top prizes. But, they don't broadcast the fact because they just keep winning smaller amounts at a time like 250k.

        A victory yet again for basic common sense, logic and science.
