OBSERVATIONS

Conversation

Bob: "Hey, Jim. how ya doin'?

Jim: "Not bad.  Did you hear about that school shooting in Texas?"

Bob: "Yeah, that's sad.  Oh, what did you think about that bad call that the ref made that cost us the game?"

Jim:  "I'm mad as hell!  I think I'm going to call the league president and complain."

Bob:  "Good! And maybe a call to our Congressman might help us get rid of that bad ref."

Universality

The Ket language is an extremely complicated language spoken by 200 people residing in Russia.  Analysis of the Ket language shows that it is directly related to our Navajo language.

Let's hear it for the Bering Strait!

 All of the native tribes that have been discovered in the last two centuries have used some form of arrows to kill animals for food.

(Check me out on this.)

Advertisements

HONDA is back at it.  Repeating their latest ad over and over.

Once again, on a 40 minute podcast, the HONDA ad played every 10 minutes as though it was on a TV show.

We try not to watch network TV because of the repetitive ads and canned laughter. (Yes, I do complain about this a lot.)

Wild Man of Borneo

P. T. Barnum displayed a South Seas native in his freak shows.  The only thing keeping the native from looking like the guy next door was his hairdo and sneer.

Until today, I had the hairdo but not the sneer.  I finally got a haircut and a beard trim. I now look like a Civil War General ready to hop on his horse and confront the enemy.
