If I have to parachute from a plane, I hope to have a paranormal experience.
Mary Madeline has given religions in America bad Ohair days.
William Jennings Bryan, famous orator and politician, prepared to give a speech to a large crowd in a rural town. The only elevated site he could see was a manure spreader. He got up on it and began his address to the crowd: “I never thought I would be speaking from my opponent’s platform.” 100 years later the same platform is being used but by both parties with a more powerful spreader (TV) resulting in a much broader and greater in-depth coverage. P.S. Bryan was a 3 time presidential candidate-see what speaking the truth got him!
New article submitted by a MD. M.D. on the treatment of cardiac problems was published in JAMA: “The Telltale Heart.”
Last Sunday’s “60 Minutes” covered another case of the FDA not protecting us and a pharmaceutical company placing profits before patients. This one involved a blood thinner produced by Bayer, a German company. Estimate mentioned on TV: 1,000 deaths a month because of complications from the medication. While its use has been stopped in Germany, our FDA has not taken the same action here. There are cheaper medications that are effective and without the side effects for surgery involving a blood thinner. Bayer products anyone? Effective FDA?
Tyson Processing Plant synonym: chicanery.
There has been a lot of talk about improving services to recent veterans but has anything been done? The St. Cloud, MN, VAMC does a fine job, but are these operations across the country being ramped up for the veterans with problems? The continued rise in suicides in the military indicates a need to fix the problem and to treat the veterans in their locales.
At my age, my writings (some) are bon mot flashes. (This is similar to menopoise-a woman having hot flashes in a crowd without anyone noticing.)
With the continued consolidation of phone and cable companies we will soon be back to the two cans and a piece of string communication system. I guess that’s fiber otics.
Congress and Senate are the sources of a lot of innourendos.
Psychology study done on the use of diamonds by pro athletes resulted in the “big bling theory”.
An ancient Greek manuscript on flatulence by Euripides has been found!
NASA said their astronomer’s love affair with the planets is strictly Plutonic. (They may have to retract this statement since Pluto is no longer a planet.)
When are we going to take the illegal aliens who are in our prisons and return them to their senders? Maybe then some our American felons can be kept in prison where they belong.
Antidisestablishmentarianism is accented on which syllable? That was your word for the day (and for the next 3 days). (Yes, spell check recognizes it!) Mary Madeline Ohair would have had a problem with either definition.
Boy Scout Master grants the Eagle Scout candidate, who missed his knot tying badge because of the sheepshank, redemption.
A tutor is a source of hired learning.
