Archives 2

Before I jump back into my archives, I invite you to do this experiment.

Picture yourself at the funeral of a loved one, where you are probably saying in your grief:  

"Why didn't I tell her I loved her?"

"Why didn't I pay more attention to him?"

"Why was I grouchy all the time?"

Now, since that loved-one is still alive, and there is time, go to your loved-one and ameliorate the situation!


Rich Politicians

Forbes magazine listed the net worth of several persons connected to the White House in 2019. Here are a few:

Betty DeVos  $2 billion

Bill Barr  $40 million

Mike Pompeo  $800,000.

Mike Pence  $1 million

Elaine Chao  $20 million

Ben Carson  $20 million

Steven Mnuchin  $400 million


I'd like to know their net worth before their entrance into politics.


The Truth

Jack Arzonico writes:

Two regulars are sitting at a bar when one of them casually points to a couple of drunks across from them. "That's us in ten years," he says.

His friend takes a sip from his beer, sets it down on the bar, turns to his buddy, and slurs, "That's a mirror!


Missing Milk Faucets

Platypuses, those furry, duck-billed mammals don't have teats, so they secrete milk through their skin, where it gathers in creases and folds, liked sweat, for their young to lap up.

Scientists think that mammary glands are just adapted sweat or sebaceous glands and that platypus moms operate the way ancient milk-producing protomammals might have.


Hi, milk drinkers!

I'm Elsie and I want to tell you a few things of great interest.



Lovely cows like me make 6 nor 7 gallons of milk each day.  In addition, we are also the source of valuable side products, like the cream that rises to the top and the butter that is churned from cream and turned into solid fat.

(A cow like Elsie has to give birth in order to produce milk, and 5 births are usually the birth limit.  Baby cows are taken from their mothers triggering a long period of milk production.

The milk dries up after 5 births and Elsie becomes hamburger.  Sorry!)

 

Barriers to Enterprize

Thirty four states require permits for children's lemonade stands.
