Hey Dad ! How's That New Iphone X?




















This. Is Why I Enjoy Reading Other Bloggers' Postings....


 Silicon Graybeard Started with this post:


Trying to Make Sense of The Opioid "Epidemic" 

then:

Trying to Make Sense of The Opioid "Epidemic" - Part II 

Do read through the comments on both of those.

Aesop then added his post here:

Medical Statistics III: Why So Many Opioid Deaths?

 

How many things are the public being played for?

 

 

Haven't We Seen This Movie Before?

Bacterial cells treated with a common antibiotic have been spotted changing shape to survive while aboard the International Space Station (ISS).
The way bacteria act in near-zero gravity environments could pose a serious problem for treating astronauts with infections.

Florida Police "Shaming" Looters On Social Media

Just imagine how caning, having perps locked in stocks, dismemberment (cutting off the hand of a thief as in mooslem countries), or public hangings would work to deter such shenanigans. I would wager that the crime rate would drop dramatically. 

Looters in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.


Read the story HERE or scroll down to see a hypothetical spoof (CNN/Anderson Cooper) that is actually about par for the "fake news" course.

Just a reminder

I doubt it has anything to do with shortages, oil production in the Gulf of Mexico, or refineries, but I shit you not, there isn't in gas in the county where I live in northwest Alabama. A lot of north Alabama is under a Tropical Storm Warning with high winds and lots of rain forecast for the next two or three days. Being in a very rural/wooded area we are more likely than not to lose power due to falling limbs/trees. I imagine a lot of folks filled cans and cars in anticipation of losing power from the electrical grid and having to resort to generator power, etc.

 














 



"Struttin' That Azz" (language)

This has been a around for a few years. I cracked up the first time I saw it and it never fails to bring a smile to my face (especially at the end when he throws his cigarette to the ground).  A Huntsville, AL reporter is downtown covering a local annual race known as the Rocket City Marathon.  The local man gives his opinion and protests the fact that "everybody is running". There are also a few other videos and remixes of this on YouTube.  Enjoy.
