John Woolard I disagree; the amount of time spent to earn that $2.00 is worth 1000's of times more, plus the cost of electricity to power your device easily exceeded that $2.00 earned. You are better off cleaning out old junk and having a yard sale. Time spent gets a...

Parents Are Supposed to Try to Keep Their Children Safe!

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (28506) 10 Aug 21

Aren't they? When you have a child, he or she is your responsibility as a parent. At least, that is what I grew up believing. I think it is still true. Or is it? So, I am friends with a young couple not far from here. They have...

Another Town Leveled By the Fire

Michelle Renee Kidwell @Michellekidwell (29260) • Sonora, California 6 Aug 21

Another town is leveled by the Dixie Fire, sad. The smoke is so thick, it's not even funny. It's definitely triggering a headache.

John Woolard Really is saddening. I use to live in Cali early 80's and I remember the only worry was waking up 4 inches out of place from the small earthquake overnight. ;) Stay safe.

Maybe I'm not Famous Enough to Understand the 'Trauma-Force' Loaded into ''The N-Word''

Uncle Jay, Finding More Value in Your Machine @mythociate (21437) • Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 26 Jul 21

John Woolard First, you call yourself word archaeotect but I see no analysis of a word here. This comes across as you just upset that someone's bad choice of words should just be ignored. The 'P' is an anatomical item as is the 'A' but if you really analyzed old words you...

John Woolard The answer is multilayered. The first is each channel though owned by the same company generally works independently meaning their own management including the programming manager. Yes, they probably take each other's programming into account but with 9 pm...

John Woolard Not cheating at all. In fact schools miss out on better teaching by not using all the senses. Just a warning to those who know you when you randomly shout "to be or not to be" when they pop in a CD.

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. 'The End' Spoils its Spoilers ... or Does It? (SPOILER ALERT)

Uncle Jay, Finding More Value in Your Machine @mythociate (21437) • Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 20 May 18

The MARVEL/ABC 'blockbuster'* is epic! but it doesn't have any plot-points that would 'spoil' the ending. For instance: Daisy saves the world ... or does she? Fitz dies ... or does he?...

agents of s h i e l d

coulson retires

fitz dies

daisy saves the world

or do they

John Woolard The Fitz issue is easy. Another Fitz is currently frozen waiting for tje future but with the future changed he can now be woke. Just my guess. One tjing for sure they left a lot of "ifs" with no real hows or whys.
