Quirky facts we've learned

The RV tech was here this morning to do some minor maintenance stuff. The igniter for the stovetop has been hard to operate. He opened it up and said it needed a new battery. Who knew? Now it works like a hot damn.

Maggie Atwood thinks that thinking there is no gender is wrong

With folks struggling to simplify everything in a complex life ... have we lost track of differentiating genre and gender in myths we cannot accept because of their enigmatic, shady nature? It appears all things have a flip side ... and yet some things are the same no matter the POV if you look at it with a compound delicacy ... like Spanish Moss that's laÇie ... a dark network setting a iconic move ... by thee fabrics of dark ladies ... femme fatale?

Do underclothes define or just express? Thus understatements ... to be probed! Stringent sorts say no probes ... with great volition! Creating a volatile state of emotions having some entanglement with how volition is a labor. Kind of like metaphor of cultic sects ... bodily connection of essence, or spirits? Spirits being the genre of the myth ... do you feel like a myth when people block you from socializing? This is a very churchy sensation to many ... because of a dress being cut along certain lines ... kilt mei! Then we move onto the bag pipe ...

Sir Terry Pratchett, sometimes would introduce himself as Dr.Dr.Dr.Dr.Dr.Dr.Dr.Dr.Dr.Dr.Pratchett as he had 10 honourary doctorates :3

Tech. is sometimes declared as:
Technology is the application of scientific knowledge to the practical aims of human life or, as it is sometimes phrased, to the change and manipulation of the human environment.

In religious basis that is counter to science and such observations ... could the alternate ego thus be a killer?
Which side in the tech supporting? It is a moving experience to be in comprehension of such topics. Takes considerable depth reading ...

I thought you could not call yourself doctor if you are in fact not a doctor, using an honorary degree. Is that true?

This is a British comic writer with a magnificently warped sense of humour. He was joking.

And I am unsure. Everyone I have known that used the title has an earned PhD, e.g. my grandfather and my wife.

Oh I know he was using his humour but it just brought to mind a psychologist I was listening to and she was introduced as Dr. So and So, and it was an honorary degree only. Someone said she should not be introduced as such or allowed to publish papers using it.

In a field like psych or any of the sciences, I think that should be the case because of the prestige and credibility that comes with a doctorate. Psych in particular, though, given the sensitive territory it goes into.

Common folk are really into the sentient (feelings) if you probe the word psyche! They hate you to evaluate and judge but love prejudice on their part ...

You really can get into IT here ... also ide that is a variant ... it does come up on impact ...

Not only has a domesticated beach ape made a drink simulating Popsicles of "old"

BUT some wisenheimer has made a flavour...

Interpretative flavours now?

It is a pearly sensation ... even on the darkest kin ... then eskinabae ... out on the ba you ... a denser point like sol ... imaginative? Some cannot lean that way ... just Kant!

I'm told by some ministers of truth they just cannot disseminate the scripts ... because of unraveled semi nance ... Nancy? Nun Ci ... because it's transparent!

It was a stormy night in obscurity to the point of occult ... with a marked elaboration ...

Sir Patrick Moore, amateur astronomer, commentator in radio and tv, writer, researcher eventually emmigrated off of Earth

His funeral was intimate and small

As per his wishes a candle was set up to be blown out by him from the afterlife

They watched it for quite some time

At some point it suddenly was blown out

Cool
