In the Victorian era, hand fans were a fun way for people to gently flirt and amuse each other. They were the Tinder of their time.
As a man who offers love to all, I always look for ways of expressing that love. But yesterday something odd happened.
Day 1
Throughout my life, I have held a pasted tooth brush and brushed my teeth. Very simple.
But now, I am told, it is time for me to use a modern electric tooth brush. So I bought the one recommended by my dental hygienist and began to read the instructions.
Immediately, I noticed they were in English, Spanish and French, and were so complex, I couldn't tell the languages apart.
But after finally deciphering those instructions, I learned I can sync my new tooth brush to my cell phone, although I don't know why I would.
My new tooth brush may also be able to turn on the TV and start my toaster but I don't know why I would do that either.
But undeterred, I was finally ready to brush. So today, for the first time, I used an electric toothbrush. Here's what happened:
Time magazine just published a great new scientific study that says if someone is attacked, to punch the shark in the snout, and if that fails poke him in the eyes.
Over the weekend here in the US, Republicans promised additional major tax breaks for corporations and for wealthy people.
Given the huge national deficit, at first, I was worried, but then I realized this is how the Bible guides us.
The Gaviota 76 mile oceanfront in the greater Santa Barbara area is the largest undeveloped coastline in California. A UC Santa Barbara PhD student, Ms. Zoe Zilz set 40 live action cameras to capture the images of the wildlife that populates the area.
Scientists are fascinated with her initial results showing the widely diverse animal population that resides there.
Recognizing a great idea, I decided to pursue one special animal and set live action cameras to photograph the legendary Bigfoot, a large hairy human-like creature. After learning where he feeds, I set the camera by the dumpsters in back of the bar, Boozy Miss Loozy.
In exciting news: I may have captured the first quality photos of Bigfoot!
In Sumatra a male orangutan 🦧 named Rakus was seen treating wounds with herbs. 🌿 This means Rakus is practicing medicine, surprising scientists.
In a related story:
Because Rakus is affordable, patients are lining up for his medical treatments. He is booked for the next six months.
But is he worth the wait:
I’ve met 35-year-olds who were old and tired and
70-year-olds who were young and active. Athletes are old at 40 and airline
pilots must retire at 65. Politicians always see themselves as eternally young.
So to determine how old is old, I asked some five-year-olds that question. “I think 12 is very old,” said Heather. “You’re not old until you’re 25,“ replied Billy. “My mom is 40 years old and she’s still young,” said Jose.
Being 79, I asked the kids if I’m old. “YES!” they shouted.
