  1. In my town there are different colored trash containers for different items. But my apartment shares a dumpster with a small two unit business building. Thus I don't have to recycle. There was a fellow who would go through the dumpster looking for bottles but now I just save them for him. He comes by about once a month.
  2. Without any human assistance? Fascinating!
  3. I don't. I fill several soft drink bottles with tap water and put them in the refrigerator for use.
  4. Good point!
  5. I prefer history.
  6. Hehehehe! An oldie but a goodie! ;-)))

    "Ignostic"

    There are theists, atheists, agnostics. I had a friend who came up with "ignostic" meaning that a person believed there was something out there but did not know what.

  9. I had a friend, a WASP - now deceased - who was in the US military in the 1950s and was stationed in Paris. He told me that when he went on vacation to a beach that people could identify him as an American. He was just wearing a swimsuit and didn't have to say a word.
  10. TONGUE TONGUE TONGUE
  11. I never milked a goat but when I was a boy I milked cows. The cows would come into the barn twice a day of their own accord.
  12. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ivan_the_Terrible_(TV_series) I fondly remember this tv show. Sadly it didn't last long.

  14. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maggie_Smith Thanks all! I'm not really familiar with her.
  15. Thanks! As I've said I'm not a science person.
  16. Are you saying that it might be possible to exceed the speed of light?
  17. I think there is Order in the Universe. There are Laws that govern how things work like gravity etc. Sorry, I'm not a science person. Einstein proved that one can not exceed the speed of light. & etc.. But we humans have to accept that we are not the center of the universe.
  18. Valid point.

  20. This is such a good question! I'm looking forward to seeing what others say. I think that we are alone in the universe. I once read that the requirements for life to evolve on earth were unique to make it almost impossible to occur elsewhere in the Universe., The right kind of Sun, The right size of planet and distance from the Sun, The planet's environment. & etc.. Sorry I can't remember it all now. People ask what came before the Big Bang. I say another Big Bang. It starts with the Big Bang, the Universe expands and reaches a certain point and then because of the Law of Gravity starts to recede. And the process begins all over again. But scientists say that the Universe is still expanding. 15 billion years! But what if it continues to expand and breakdown and not recede? There might not be another Big Bang and this is it?
  21. In private.
  22. Okay. The Ayes have it.
