Think! Absolutely, this is political bulls*** to foster socialism. That is the method used to promote dependency on the government, with the intent of a dominant World Government where no one has autonomy. The Constitution of our Republic is being literally torn to shreds.

You need to strengthen your thigh muscles and an easy way for older people (like myself at near 86) is simply sitting on a chair and rising without using your hands. Do this enough times to feel a bit of fatigue in the thighs, and that is enough. After perhaps 10 days or so you will feel the difference as the muscles gain some of the youthful strength that you have lost. I am supposing that you are Catholic, but a genuflection of slight bend is permissible instead of a deep one that youthful people can easily accomplish.
I am not a Catholic but when visiting a church or cathedral I always conform to this as respect for the sensibilities of others, (even though I do not make a sign of the cross).

You are taking the official report as accurate. Oswald WAS a "patsy" in the coverup report. Kennedy was certainly killed to prevent opposition to world government takeover. Jack Kennedy was governing as a conservative (democrat) and that was not what was the leftist plan for the country. The 50 year period is well over and ALL documents should be opened to the public.

May be a good article but I'm not going to read the NY Toilet Paper Times.
Many years ago (65 or so) I seemed to be the only college student who subscribed to the NYTimes. It has become a Leftist Rag now and I deign to pollute my mind with their socialist/communist, indoctrinating drivel.

"your" means owned by as your car, hairstyle etc.
"you're" is a contraction of you are.
Please learn the difference (that you should have learned in grade school).

I remember mowing those. For my grandmom and aunt and others. I did not like them much.
I remember as a youngster, manhandling in the spring tall grass. You had to push hard for a bout 18", back up and repeat to make any progress. It took what seemed forever to mow a 1/4 acre wild yard.

Re: love of the Leica M3
More than 60 (?) years ago I bought a newly produced Leica M3 plus some allied lenses and equipment. All this was feasible for a sailor aboard ship when prices were not outrageous and non taxed. I had it for several years until I got married and left the Navy. With the birth of a daughter and no money for the obstetrician I sold all the dearly loved Leica equipment to pay the bill. I should have named the newborn daughter "Leica" but didn't. I see that an early M3 Leica sold recently for about 100 times what I paid. I now use a Nikon entry level with some Tamron lenses and qualify my attempts as snapshots. I dearly miss my 35 mm rangefinder Leica as then I had aspirations of a career in photography. So goes the dreams of many men.

New names!? Mark and I remember old time piano players like Fats Waller and even trumpeter Bix Beiderbeck who also played piano (during his short life). Search "In a Mist" by the fabled Bix.

Not 10 X the speed of a hurricane in a prop plane.

That sounds suspiciously like the little military planes I flew in out in the Pacific many years ago. No pressurization, very cold, made you groggy from little oxygen at the moderate altitudes that we flew at.

Dandelion leaves before the plant flowers make a very tasty salad with virgin olive oil and rice vinegar. I also used a German recipe (wilted salad) by crumbling CRISP bacon, pouring some apple cider vinegar into hot bacon fat (from the bacon crumbles) then pouring the warm fat/vinegar over the greens. Delicious!
Salt & pepper if desired.

I am 82 and have shrunk 4 inches, yet it is more difficult to tie my shoestrings.
I've noticed the same thing! 5'10 in HS in early 50's and I have to sit to tie shoelaces (with a bit of bending difficulty). I am still trying for the age of 120 as told to Noah in Genesis. Keep as active as you can.
