Flagpole... Ray and Bob, two government maintenance guys, were standing at the base of a flagpole, looking up. A woman walked by and asked what they were doing. We're supposed to find the height of the flagpole, said Bob, but we don't have a ladder. The woman said, "Hand me that wrench out of your toolbox." She loosened a few bolts, and then laid the pole down. She then took a tape measure from their toolbox, took a measurement and announced, "It's eighteen feet, six inches" and walked away. Ray shook his head and laughed, well, ain't that just like a Miss-know-it-all woman he said. We need the height and she gives us the length!........ Ray and Bob are still working for the government, but now they are Congressmen!
The moral of the story: We need more women in Government, they know how to get the job done. lol
A second flood a simple famine plagues of locusts everywhere or a cataclysmic earthquake i'd except with some despair but no you sent us congress....good god sir was that fair?
And they expect us to keep quiet about all the corruption going on in Congress and this administration.
A lot of truth is spoken in jest, you think? lol
HA!!
We need more scientists in government too. I noticed there's very little physics, biologists, chemists, technological, mathematical, scientists or inventors in the government roles. Most of the old bats in the system are just utterly luddites when it comes to technology, science, or the internet. Considering people born in the last 40 years had the luck of having quick development of technology and scientific breakthroughs, then the 90s saw an extremely fast development of technology before slowing down again in the last 10 years.
I think once Gen X folks are in their 60s, is when most of the country will be at least somewhat technologically knowledgeable and advanced, and rely more on scientific methods. Once that happens, things will look up again for the future. I mean, I doubt we'd get anywhere close to a cyberpunk future, but hey, it's almost 2020, and we got till 2100 to be like the world of Judge Dredd or at least Ghost in the Shell which is a bit more of the dystopian future I envision. lol.
This would be nicer if not broken in half
The country's sure going to the dogs,
As it bumbles and stumbles through fogs.
But of course, Ray and Bob,
Who were doing that job,
Could ONLY have been left-wing progs.
ME bring politics, Kemo Sabe...? Perish the thought.

We are trying to have some fun on this site, without bringing politics into it....and you just can't seem to do that.
Just stay off my posts if that's all you can contribute is politics. We're sick of it.
Well, gee, Kemo Sabe, I was only following YOUR example on this fun post:
"And they expect us to keep quiet about all the corruption going on in Congress and this administration."

There once was an ill-tempered lib,
Who when dissing all cons was most glib.
But when prog kakistocracy
Revealed her hypocrisy,
The best she could do was to fib.
