Monday Night Overnight Open Thread (8/7/17) No Walrus To Be Found Edition
I believe that all government is evil, and that trying to improve it is largely a waste of time. H. L. Mencken
“I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.” Marilyn Monroe
“The reason I talk to myself is because I’m the only one whose answers I accept." George Carlin
I’ve long had a theory about why prayers are answered, but answered rarely. I think that God, for all his omnipresence, omnipotence, and omniscience is pretty much nailed to the present as far as humans go.
John Stossel investigates a New York City park bathroom that cost $2 million to build.
The NEH is attempting to keep up with The City of New York. How much money did they spend on Dialogues About Water? If you guessed a whole lotta money, you are right. The National Endowment for the Humanities' list of taxpayer-funded projects includes $300,000 for conversations about water, $75,000 for a database of podcasts, and $30,000 for oral histories of lesbian and gay Idahoans.
In the last 30 years, more mosques and Muslim prayer centers have been built in France than all the Catholic churches built in the last century.
The desperate signing by the Dolphins also means that Colin Kaepernick's chances of mounting a comeback as a QB in the NFL are increasingly long. The Dolphins were reportedly looking at Kaepernick as a possible replacement for Tannehill but clearly ended up deciding against it.
When Erin Brockovich, an environmental activist, shook down Pacific Gas & Electric for $333 million for allegedly poisoning a community with hexavalent chromium and causing cancer and all sorts of other health problems, Julia Roberts portrayed the protagonist in a sensationalized blockbuster movie. It is unlikely, however, that Hollywood will be filming a sequel.
August 7, 1971, The Bee Gees started a four week run at No.1 on the US singles chart with 'How Can You Mend A Broken Heart'. It was the group's tenth US hit and first No.1. The Bee Gees penned song was originally offered to Andy Williams, but ultimately the Bee Gees recorded it themselves, it was also later covered by soul singer Al Green. via thisdayinmusic.com
August 7, 1997, Garth Brooks played to the largest crowd ever in New York's Central Park. An estimated 1 million people attended the live concert with an additional 14.6 million viewing live on HBO. via thisdayinmusic.com
NEW YORK – The US-based clothing website Teespring is selling T-shirts and sweatshirts branded with swastikas, aiming to make them a “symbol of love and peace”. No mention of....... That’s what the producers of DC’s “Legends of Tomorrow” series on The CW did. The people behind the show said this week that Isis — a computer hacker from the future played by Tala Ashe — was made into a follower of Islam in response to Trump’s election, according to The Washington Times.
The dolls on offer have proven so popular that there is a three-month waiting list to get your hands on one of the plastic partners.
Generation Z. A generation of unimaginative souls. Plus, they are unhappy. Today’s teenagers are more sheltered and less independent than previous generations, and the shifts correspond with the mainstreaming of smartphones around 2012. Instead of going out with friends and looking for every chance to get away from their parents, the post-Millennial generation is staying in and Snapchatting—and it’s making them less happy. Personally? I couldn't wait to leave my parent's home and start out on my own.
No big deal. I got this junk. Being a medical doctor means being so used to penises and vaginas, to me they are interchangeable with any body part, from brain to anus.
Sorry about the dust in here along with Tonight's Feel Good Story of The Day.
