Explaining Blockchain to C19 Americanists:

You know how in the 1850s any three dudes with a printing press could start a newspaper, a bank, or a counterfeiting syndicate, and sometimes it was hard to tell which was which?

What is the purpose of exercise?

I notice you had your nose stapled on. Why did it fall off? 🤔 I am thinking of getting a body augmentation to rival all these implants … I suppose wetware brain enhancements are not yet available on the High Street?

"Learn to limit yourself, to content yourself with some definite thing, and some definite work; dare to be what you are, and learn to resign with a good grace all that you are not and to believe in your own individuality." ~ Henri-Frédéric Amiel

My dog is so lazy that he doesn't even chase cars.

He just lies at the side of the road and looks at their registration plates.

‘Eat like there’s no policeman.There are children starving in Africa’. Nana served up more gefilte fish.

Aunt Rosa sucked my sister’s cheek and left a mark.
‘Mmm-marshmallows’.

My father held her close. ‘Like blueberries’ he sighed.
‘Ach! I could eat her up,’ my mother whispered

I worried about the starving children. Was Africa near New Jersey? Would they come at night, when there was no policeman?
Would they think my sister was delicious?
