Stupid is a lack of brain power, while ignorance is what we all suffer from until we study and learn. Two entirely different situations.
I recall Fred Allen's remark about some fictitious person: "He was born ignorant and has been losing ground ever since".
Jerry,
The Flying Scotsman , a classic train in England had no headlight. Maybe the Brits are a bit more attentive to trains or maybe they don't value people who wander down train tracks?? :^)
I wonder how long the custom of having headlights will continue once autonomous vehicles really catch on. It reminds me of the joke about the group of golfing blind firefighters holding up the progress of other golfers. One asked 'Why can't they play at night?'
On another subject, I thought that Texas was the Lone Star state??
You can pick up a 300mm telephoto from Nikon for $100 to $150 all day long and it is a sharp lens.
Send me the money and I'll research this for you.
I hate to say this guys, because some of you are so happy venting your anger and frustration on Hillary. After all she's a woman..so a lot of people will go along with your sexist ways. BUT, and this is where it will start getting difficult [I hope it will, if you are willing to be objective] as a recent evaluation of her, debunked about 80% of the garbage and hate that has been thrown at her. Think of this way: if she had done what the Republican witch hunt had claimed, she would probably be in jail, right? Of course, if coming to grips with the FACTS is too much for you, then use the old 'the liberal press distorted it, or her cronies rigged it' card.
You swallow Trump's lies and distortions without any thought to their validity, but after twenty years of witch hunting which has cost the taxpayer [ you] millions..remember Starr and his failure? That woman is as free as you are and is the MOST qualified person EVER to run for the presidency. Have a nice day.
But don't let what I have said sway you, don't let it cause you to question the motive for your hate. And you know that you are full of hate.
Trump? WTF are you talking about?????
Welcome to the group. Your photos are a treat!
If you want more of Stephen Fry's wonderful humor, dial up QI repeats on Youtube.
What's the big deal? Buy the cheaper, just as good product.
WOW What would you guys do with the film: The Third Man the biggest action is running in water....well maybe its not pure water!
I would think that a place like Sioux City, Iowa would be a better choice. The worst thing that could happen is the earth would collapse and create a huge cavity which would then fill with water and become the largest of the Great Lakes. Anyone who has ever been in Iowa realises that they can use any improvement they can get! [joke]
