[Fake Mosquitoes] What is the chance the fake mosquitoes will inject the COVID-19 virus with their noses? Seems like this is a very dumb idea to release these bugs. |

[Friday Joke] A little boy comes downstairs for breakfast. Since they live on a farm, his mother asks if he has done his chores. “Not yet,” said the little boy. His mother tells him no breakfast until he does his chores. So he goes to feed the chickens, but he’s a little resentful, so he kicks a chicken. He feeds the cows, and he kicks a cow. He feeds the pigs, and he kicks a pig. He goes back in for breakfast and his mother gives him a bowl of dry cereal. “How come I don’t get any eggs and bacon, and why don’t I have any milk in my cereal?” he asks. “Well,” his mother says, “I saw you kick a chicken, so you don’t get any eggs for a week. I saw you kick the pig, So you don’t get any bacon for a week either. I saw you kick the cow, so for a week you aren’t getting any milk.” Just then, the boy’s father comes down for breakfast and kicks the cat half-way across the kitchen. The little boy looks up at his mother with a wicked smile and says, “You gonna tell him, or should I?” |
![]() [Time Travel] I found that one can track their past history through old t-shirts. My time in the Keys was memorable (from what I can remember), I think. Just answered Jimmy’s question. The flashbacks have come. 1973-1981. |

[Phony Food] The restaurants seem to be serving great tasting chow since the plague has tapered off a bit, but is it, or is it because the chow is loaded with flavor enhancers to make the customer believe things are great again? How to tell? Have weird dreams, wild sleepless nights, lots of gas and the s**ts? Watch where you spend your money on the over-priced flavor enhanced garbage. |

[Saving N.C.] General Stoneman is under my command, and my order will suspend any devastation or destruction contemplated by him. I will add that I really desire to save the people of North Carolina the damage they would sustain by the march of this army through the central or western parts of the State.
I am, with respect, your obedient servant, |
![]() [Meth] In 1940 German soldiers were taking 2-5 Pervitin tablets a day to increase their endurance. Pervitin is methamphetamine. Germany produced 35 million of these tablets in 1940 for its military. Imagine if our president was shooting up heroine and popping meth tablets every day? He likely go crazy too! |
[Friday Joke] A young man goes into a drug store to buy condoms. The pharmacist tells him that the condoms come in packs of three, nine, or 12, and asks which ones the young man wants. “Well,” he says, “I’ve been seeing this girl for a while and she’s really hot. I want the condoms because I think tonight’s the night. We’re having dinner with her parents and then we’re going out. I’m excited about tonight, so you’d better give me the 12 pack!” The young man makes his purchase and leaves. Later that evening, he sits down to dinner with his girlfriend and her parents. He asks if he may give the blessing and they agree. He begins the prayer, but continues praying on and on for many minutes. The girl leans over and says, “You never told me that you were such a religious person.” He leans over to her and says, “You never told me that your father is a pharmacist.” |
