I live in an area where groups of riders on motorcycles can drive wheelies down the freeway or stand on the gas tank while going very fast,and the cops can't do anything because of helmets and masks. Chasing them is way too dangerous.

Cuz right now, I got nuthin'.

As I mentioned way back here, I played racquetball a little bit. I guess I was in high school. I had access to the gym at the local Air Force Base because I was a dependent and my father was the gym manager at the time.

As I have probably mentioned MANY times before, my left leg doesn't bend. So, when playing racquetball, I had a disadvantage ( Read more... )

I guess I can see the concern over food that is genetically modified.

But I don't understand why people let food that is "bred" get by either.

For instance, the wheat we have now, with a big sheaf of grains s not how it used to be a couple thousand years ago. Many fewer grains per stalk. But humans bred and crossbred the wheat. And convinced it to ( Read more... )

As I sit her doing something optional, I'm complaining about how busy I am. Lots of time getting to and from work. More than 8 hours AT work. Then housework, of which I don't do enough, and yardwork, of which I do practically none, and pet upkeep, which I have to do before I sleep. And laundry. And maintaining friendships. And trying to help out my ( Read more... )
