I thought I would put this into perspective for everybody
If you stacked 1 dollar bills one on top of the other, all the way up around the moon and back to earth twice you would be just shy of the national debt
Or think about this, roughly a billion seconds ago it was 1960

Some times I squint my eyes and look at people thru my thumb and index finger and imagine I can squish them.

[Link: remotecentral.com]BTW, did you know that if you took all of Bill Gates money and stacked it, that when it fell down a lot of people would be running all over trying to pick some of it up?

Uh, actually, I think the shear weight would kill some of them, the rest would just suffocate. And oh come on, don’t pick on me, people put much dumber non relevant stuff in this forum and no one complains

was 1960 This is of no help if you don't mention how many billions of dollars the national debt is. Then keep updating it every day. And yes, all of the threads mentioned here should not be in this forum. The moderators really should move all of them. Because they don't, off topic threads will continue here. Either they all should be dealt with, or none of them should be dealt with. The presence of this thread here, and the woo hoo thread here, undermine anything the moderators might have to say in the future about anybody's inappropriate thread. We've come to believe that "inappropriate" means offensive or rude or insulting or criminal. It actually starts with not correct for where it is, and this thread is inappropriate. At least it's inappropriate here.

Peace - It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart. |
