The title says it all, our world is not what it could be or should be. Therte are various 'so-called leaders who profess to be doing the 'right' thing to defend their countries, but in actual fact the truth is greed, imperial advancement and acquisition of resources the do not belong to them. Russia is clearly guilty of this right now with the invasiuon of Ukraine, and China, under another despotic leader, is seeking to do the same in Taiwan and other Pacific nations who do NOT ne

[quote who="Jafo" reply="6" id="3850111"] Quoting starkers, reply 5 I wanted to watch and told him that I'm not squeamish, but they covered everything up and I couldn't see or feel a thing. When I had my 'Vikings' Disease' Op on my hands...I wanted to watch the first one...but the 'sed
[quote who="DaveRI" reply="1" id="3849913"] Ouch. Whacking yourself with an axe is like whacking yourself with a hammer and a relatively dull knife at the same time, the best of both worlds. Glad everything held together for you. [/quote] It wasn't all that painful when it first happened. It hurt most after the local anaesthetic wore off after surgery... luckily I had some Oxycodone to ease the pain. Only needed two of them, one on the first nigh
Last Tuesday I was splitting wood for kindling for our wood Heater when the axe bounced of the log and came down on the tip of my thumb, almost severing it. Thing is, there was little to no pain and I was able to stem the bleeding fairly quickly, so me being me just bandaged it and figured it'd be alright. It wasn't until Friday morning when Shaunna was ready to put a fresh dressing on it and we could see the severity of the injury. The thumb nail was completely severed abou
Banned for the carp playing the harp under a tarp
Banned for attempting to become a fish farmer and filling your bathtub with goldfish.
Banned for the fear of going to the dentist and instead going to the vet and haggling over the price for a routine root canal and a quick tonsilectomy the vet wasn't qualified to do. Then there was the woman who went to the dentist and said that she wasn't sure which was worst... having a tooth extracted or having a baby. The dentist quickly quipped: "Make up yer mind lady... so's I know how to adjust the chair.
Banned for they were not dogs but wolves.... dressed in sheeps clothing.
I have always believed that we are not alone in this great universe and the study that you linked for us, Doc, proves that there are building blocks for life out there in space.... and given its vastness it may be decades or even centuries before we discover intelligent life forms out there somewhere. That is why space exploration is so darned important to the continuation of life on Earth.... one day there will be another Noah, taking we humans and animals to another home out there in
Banned for looking very sheepish when it was revealed you let loose a herd of wool bearers in front of a combine harvester to save time and money shearing them.
[quote who="Jafo" reply="22" id="3848481"] We're both getting better...now it's just that bloody cough... [/quote] Glad to hear you're both on the mend. As for the cough... the bloody cough, I quit the smokes 17 years ago and still have a bloody cough. However, I am told that diabetes is more likely the cause and I may have to learn to manage it and live with it. For the most part it isn't so bad, but at night when I laying down trying to sleep it becomes a
[quote who="naroon1" reply="28" id="3848541"] I barely touch social media, [/quote] I never touch social media sites.... not ever. I simply do not trust them..,. not even slightly or a brief moment.

Banned for confusing a Pootin with a bidet.
As others have found the passion for skinning is just isn't there, you have also come to the crossroad where other things seem to be more important and you've chosen to attend to those instead. Nothing wrong with that. We all need a change every now and then, so pursue that for now and see how you feel further down the track. Also, thanks for your great skins and contributions to the site... and keep safe and well. [e digicons]:)[/e]
