Third or Fourth Grade Geology
I like it!
We didn’t have enough stupidity, but now the inner core is outside of the core!

Cold Fusion
Cold fusion. As an extremely senior scientist once told me: “It’s more related to seances than sciences.”
I thought that was pretty clever.
Gifts
Are the best gifts made of bison leather? No, and I’m not talking about veganism.
I’ve had the same belt for my entire adult life. I don’t need another. Trust me, your dad or husband feels the same way.
Write him a poem and put your whole heart into it.

Truth in Advertising
Do you ever wonder if the photos that you see in advertisements may have been altered? Astute Americans have been concerned about this for at least a century.
Did that guy really lose all that weight? Have all this lady’s crows’ feet actually disappeared with just a jar of this incredible cream, invented by a 13-year-old?
At left is an ad for the treatment of nail fungus that just may have been doctored. How can I be so sure? She (Janet) has four toes.
Like many of us, I have a bit of toenail fungus, and this stuff is extremely tenacious. Maybe I need a stronger medication, but I certainly don’t want something so strong that it removes a toe.

Charlatan Wants to Sell You Gold
Would anyone trust this guy to walk his dog, let alone provide financial advice?
When you listen to the mega-wealthy ultra-conservative talk show hosts like Larry Elder, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, or Charlie Kirk, or the even richer televangelists like Joel Osteen, you can’t help wondering if any of these people has an ounce of sincerity in his entire body.
Do any of these people actually believe a word they’re saying? I doubt it. They make their multimillions by exploiting huge audiences of morons, and they’re intensely good at it.
Mocking Trump
Trump faces far greater problems than being mocked, e.g., being impeached, convicted, and imprisoned.
Saving Electricity
My father was big on turning off lights because he was frugal.
Another reason, of course, that affects those of us tied to the grid, is to do one’s part in lowering the consumption of fossil fuels.

Ohhh, That’s Cold — Phoenix-based Pastor Suggests Rejecting “Single Mother Whores”
Nobody doubts that Christianity in America isn’t what it used to be. The essence of the religion, of course, is reaching out to those in need, and offering a path to salvation.
The pastor at left seems to need a refresher course in all this.

These Lies Have to be More Credible, Gentlemen
Part of what’s bringing down the Trump presidency is his people’s remarkable inability to tell lies that are even remotely credible to the American people. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent claimed beef prices are rising because of immigrants bringing diseased cattle across the border. That seems far-fetched, even to the rank-and-file MAGA Trump supporter.
Worst Press Secretary?
Karoline Leavitt is a terrible person, but let’s be fair: she’s not incompetent; in fact, she’s very good at what she does.
She was hired by a sociopathic criminal / professional liar to tell lies to the press. And these are not fibs; they’re calculated to misinform the American people and to protect the conman in the White House, which does immeasurable harm to this country and most of its citizens.
