Subj : moving or not 3/3 To : BARRY MARTIN From : Daryl Stout Date : Sat Feb 01 2020 02:59:00 (Continued from previous message) ATTORNEY: So, then it is possible that the patient was alive when you began the autopsy? WITNESS: No. ATTORNEY: How can you be so sure, Doctor? WITNESS: Because his brain was sitting on my desk in a jar. ATTORNEY: I see, but could the patient have still been alive, nevertheless? WITNESS: Yes, it is possible that he could have been alive and practicing law. *** BM> DS> There's a new social media site that says it'd be safer than BM> DS> Facebook. The hitch is that it requires a photo of you (can you BM> DS> say "facial recognition"?). BM>In one way I can see why, OTOH why? ...That's where the legal-beagles BM>get their money by (probably) restricting the age of the photo ("it's BM>me! [when I was 5 years old]"), or "that's me in the second from the top BM>bleachers, third from the right" or a super-close-up. Reminds me of the cartoon, where the butterfly driving his vehicle is pulled over, and shows the insect cop a picture of a caterpilliar, and notes "that's my picture from several years ago". BM> DS> I have a bulletin on the BBS entitled "Fraud: You Win To Lose", BM> DS> including folks winning the lottery, lose far more than they win. BM> DS> All these so called friends come out of the woodwork. BM>If someone I knew won the lottery I'd send them a congratulatory note; BM>if knew sufficiently well I'd probably add a joke "can I have a BM>dollar?". Personally I would not expect anything, even if my parents BM>(now Mother) won. They'd/She'd give me some but I wouldn't ask (other BM>than the joke amount). Nowadays, many are bankrupt...or worse, dead...not long after they hit it big. If I can't beat the games on my BBS, there's no way I'm going to win in real life. BM> DS> It's like "four color process". With a half tone pattern in BM> DS> silkscreen printing, you print in yellow, cyan, magenta, and BM> DS> black...wet on wet...and it looks like over a dozen colors. Those BM> DS> were a real pain in the butt to set up, because if the pattern BM> DS> wasn't right, you'd get a wavy line (a maure') in the pattern. BM>Which you charge extra for as is a special effect! If I ran a business, it'd be called "Simple Tees"...one color prints/designs, with no half tones or fine detail. In silkscreen printing, if you "expose" the design to long, the fine details wash out, depending on the mesh of the screen (how many threads per square inch), which determines how much emulsion is put on the screen. The emulsion has to be kept in a "dark room" with either low intensity red or yellow light...the white light of fluorescent lamps will cause it to "expose prematurely". BM> DS> What would've been worse is if a naked shopper was wrapped in BM> DS> them, then let them fall. BM>Some would be glad was there, others wished had the day off! Cheap thrill, or heart attack. :P BM> DS> To which, the preacher says in his Conway Twitty Voice, "Hello, BM> DS> Darlin'" (one of Conway's many hits) . Maybe it would've been BM> DS> better if she were in "Tight Fittin' Jeans" . BM> "So while you're in the all-together should I baptize you?" BM>(Your comeback is better but I couldn't let it hang!) Well, the Bible notes in Psalms that "we are beautifully and wonderfully made"...although the way some peoples bodies are (in some cases, it's not their fault), it makes you wonder. That reminds me of the joke where the young boy and his Dad were in this elevator, and this obsese woman, with a large posterior enters the elevator. The boy remarks "Boy, Dad...she's got a big butt!!". His Dad apologizes to the woman, and rebukes his son, telling him that "some people can't help that". About that time, her pager starts beeping, and the boy screams in panic "LOOK OUT, DAD!! SHE'S BACKING UP!!" BM> DS> If you write a bad check for an exorcism, can you get BM> DS> repossessed?? BM>Or like they say at the Egyptian funeral parlor, satisfaction guaranteed BM>or your mummy back! In a word, really. BM>And noticed of late the labels now says "One size fits most"; used to be BM>'all'. The "warning labels" on some of these items are so bizarre, it's ridiculous. In wondering "are people really THAT stupid??", the answer, sadly, is "yes". :P BM> DS> I'm trying to keep moving around...and not just from the BM> DS> computer chair to the toilet or to the kitchen. BM>Who used lithium grease on these chair casters?! As long as I don't trip and fall on that. BM> DS> (Continued to next message) BM>Promise or threat?! Both...even more so with this long reply. BM>IchibanLaw: When hands covered with oil/grease/glue, your nose itches That's about the size of it.
