Yup, and in 1992 the Vatican (Pope John Paul 11) admitted the Roman Catholic church made a mistake with Galileo (1564 - 1642)....and that whole earth revolves around the sun thing, basically...well...whaddaya know...Galileo was right after all…the Earth DOES revolves around the Sun... Yeah... maybe we should not have threatened to burn him at the stake and make him spend the rest of his life under house arrest..... but...you know... that’s how it was then so......oh well....

Anti-poor sentiments at school really have me in a ****ty mood today. Yesterday I was actually laughed at for expressing gratitude that the ACA made it so I could get my knee fixed.

I hope this helps.....I only laugh at you behind your back.

My coworker just told me he plans on visiting the Mustang Ranch. I wonder if he'll bring his wife?

You're asking if she likes to horse around, I take it.

Maybe. She married a *******.

I have spent more time on RF than normal today. That translates to 30 mins of work. Damn.

I've always been a major proponent of the 30 minute work week.

Sometimes I see threads and I just want to drop sarcastic lines, because.
And then I see that they are in DIRs or something that I can't crash.
It frustrates me.

Maybe we should have DIR Open-House day.

You don't need something else to repent for on Yom Kippur?

With the arrow of understanding from one who was chastised greatly for posting in the Jewish DIR thinking that my being Jewish (my mother was Jewish) was sufficient. The Talmudic scholars in the DIR let me know in no uncertain terms that in their judgement it was insufficient to be Jewish and that I need to wear the badge of self-identification as a Jew.

I think that's an RF rule, not a Jewish one.

Was her mother Jewish?

Laser green Legos are my favorite. You rarely get laser green Legos in a set of Legos. Instead you get a bunch of opaque blocks, but that is fine. You only need so many laser green ones. I don't know which ones are healthier to swallow. I presume the laser green ones are. I never swallowed one, so I can't say.

I don't understand. Does borg mean "crazy enough to build huge cubes out of little pieces"? The only translation of the word borg, seems to be related to some television show about space. Why is this a borg lego?

 

[Brickjectivity]

Oh, well you know people who write Science Fiction shows tend to look for ways to characterize religious people as people with insect-like behavior. Borg Lego is a joke on me. The Borg are originally a joke on religious people from a TV show called Star Trek the Next Generation. There is a group of Cyborgs called 'The Borg' who have completely given up all individuality to become one giant-creature. They live in giant metal cubes in outer space and fly around attacking and enslaving planets. Anyway they are very cool looking cyborgs with lasers all over their bodies, so when Iti started inviting people to become 'Borg' I went along with it for fun. Basically you change your avatar to look cyborg, and then you're in Iti's club.
