Champion 10157 Alabama | Subject: 12 years before the world ends According to the brainiac AOC, the world is going to end in 12 years if we don't address climate change. Wow. She went from barmaid to congressman to climatologist prognosticator in less than a year! What to do? The clock is ticking! How do we change the collective behavior of 7.5 billion people? We start by taxing the rich at 70% because I just read that AOC believes is it immoral to have billionaires... "I do think a system that allows billionaires to exist when there are parts of Alabama where people are still getting ringworm because they don’t have access to public health is wrong." Ringworm? Yikes! She is the new Al Gore who claimed in 2000 the polar ice caps would be gone by 2014. |

Champion 10157 Alabama | Subject: RE: 12 years before the world ends Originally posted by Left Brain Dammit son, can you people down there not take care of your ringworm?? Has Walgreens not made it that far south? LMAO Reckon not. I had to do some research on this Alabama Ringworm health issue. I found this: "Ringworm on the skin like athlete's foot and jock itch can be treated with non-prescription antifungal creams, lotions, or powders applied to the skin for 2 to 4 weeks." I wonder if we have a people with jock itch without access to health care too? I have seen some young people who seem to hold their crotch a lot.....maybe they are just scratching because they can't afford some Gold Bond? |

Pro 15655 | Subject: RE: 12 years before the world ends I see that twitter is calling for a massive walkout on Wed. by all workers in the country.....and if it's on twitter, it must be real. If that happens, and the people who make Gold Bond walk out, this ringworm problem could spread North. My kid raced in Birmingham Saturday, I'm going to call him and have him check himself for these worms. I don't want him to be "patient zero" for the looming infestation. |

Champion 10157 Alabama | Subject: RE: 12 years before the world ends It just keeps getting better..... “So after you make $10 million in one year, your dollars after that start to get progressively taxed at a much higher rate. And really, what that is … at what level are we just living in excess?” she asked. Living in excess? Spend a week in Nepal seeing how the Nepalese people live. You will come back and realize that 99.73% of Americans live excessively. (83.5% of statistics are made up on the spot.) Having said that, I fundamentally agree with the sentiment, but I believe this a personal question that we should ask ourselves and not try to answer that question for someone else. Americans have a very high level of 'excess'. On a personal note.....several years ago I had one of my engineers come into my office to tell me he was going to retire on his 55th birthday. I shook his hand and said that was my plan too! I asked him how he made the decision. He said he and his wife asked themselves, "When is enough, enough?" I have enough....and I will retire soon.....if I don't AOC will accuse me of living excessively. |

I'll be 61.....and trust me, enough is quite enough. And the bonus is I'll still have 10 years before the world ends. LMAOOO That's actually a pretty good milestone.....better than throwing a dart at a dart board. My planned retirement date was going to be Feb 21 of last year. That was my 55th BD. But.....I bought 4-wheeler....then I bought a (used) Corvette and decided I needed to work till I got that paid off.....when it was paid off I 'accidently' bought a bass boat (such a great deal, Nitro Z7 with 150 4 stroke with only 10 hrs on the motor)...so had to pay that off. So I reset my retirement date to be 20 Feb 2019...the day before my 56th birthday....then I could still claim I retired at 55....albeit for only one day. Well....then I bought this POS 1949 Dodge pickup rust-bucket for a post-retirement project....then I bought a pop-up camper.....ok, starting to see a pattern here? I figure I might as well get all my toys before I retire. My plan is to drag my boat and camper to the lake (with two trips) and live on the lake for a couple of weeks.....catching fish for my meals....bringing only grease to fry the fish, corn meal, some coffee....ok, maybe some bacon too. Anyway, I'm on the glide path again....thinking early spring. Might go vermin hunting Feb 2 so we don't have a prognosticating rodent giving us 6 more weeks of winter.... BTW, speaking of vermin hunting. A couple of weeks ago my son and I went vermin hunting. There was a pack of yotes howling in the woods all around our place. We had a vermin call but we never could call them up. My wife posted about all the howling on FB and it turns out it was (maybe still is) mating season for coyotes. IDK. We have horses, dogs and cats and if I can find them, I will kill them. |

Hey, we can't even provide health care for the people in Alabama with ringworm....we don't need to be importing Texas cat ringworm strains! |

Pro 15655 | Subject: RE: 12 years before the world ends I have always been amused by the people who think their days on earth, which doesn't even amount to a speck on a gnats arse in time, are somehow the most important days of our planet's history. That truly takes a comical level of arrogance and stupidity. My bet is the Earth can't wait to shed itself of humans and all of their bullchit. Edited by Left Brain 2019-01-23 2:12 PM |

Great line from Crodile Dundee about the debate over who owns the land. He says the debate is like two fleas on a dog arguing over who owns the dog. |
