Quote:A girl came skipping home one day and said "Mommy Mommy, we had a counting game today and the other kids could only get to 5 but I counted all the way to 10 !! "
The Mom said " That's very good ! "
The girl asked "Is it because I'm blonde ?" and the Mother replied "No, that doesn't have anything to do with it "

The next week, she came skipping home again and said "Mommy Mommy, we had gym class today and when we were changing clothes, all the other girls were flat chested, but I have these! " and she pulls up her shirt showing 34Cs. She asks "Mommy, is it because I'm blonde ? "

The Mother replies, "No, it's because you're 24".

I like this story from Mr. Twain

What does the machine tell us....?
























Several other lesser known search engines produced same results. Swiss Cows was the anomaly.

Originally shown on Showtime,the Lexx movie was wildly successful and another 3 movies were commissioned followed by 3 seasons of a weekly show.

It's plot and script were always everything I wanted in Sci Fi that was lacking in other films.

Lexx 1.0 - I Worship His Shadow

Some more info on MKUltra to include how they turned a brilliant young man into the Uni-bomber. Some seriously sick stuff that has been carried out and probably still is IMO.

Quote:Bat-people on the Moon – what a famed 1835 hoax reveals about misinformation today

While the social media age may allow misinformation to spread like a highly contagious virus, ‘fake news’ is, of course, as old as the news itself. And, as The Great Moon Hoax chronicles, the Moon proved fertile ground for misinformation long before the persistent conspiracy theory that the Apollo landings were faked. In this short, the Australian journalist Kirsty B Carter interviews the US writer Matthew Goodman who explains how a series of stories, originally intended as satire and published in 1835 in the New York paper The Sun, convinced millions that the Moon was teeming with life – including, infamously, a race of bat-people. Explaining why the articles ended up being taken seriously, the video details how profit, entertainment value and the nature of belief intertwined to perpetuate this fantastical hoax, mirroring trends that continue, amplified, today.

LSD, Ecstasy, and a Blast of Utopianism: How 1967's “Summer of Love” All Began

The Human Be-In was an event held in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park Polo Fields on January 14, 1967. This so-called “Gathering of the Tribes” drew more than 20,000 people and came to symbolize the counterculture movement of the 1960s. It featured The Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Quicksilver,  and Big Brother And The Holding Company. It was a prelude to San Francisco's Summer of Love, which made the Haight-Ashbury LSD district a symbol of American counterculture and introduced the word "psychedelic" to suburbia. A new California law banning the use of the psychedelic drug LSD that had come into effect on October 6, 1966.

Quote:

In a 25-square-block area of San Francisco, in the summer of 1967, an ecstatic, Dionysian mini-world sprang up like a mushroom, dividing American culture into a Before and After unparalleled since World War II. If you were between 15 and 30 that year, it was almost impossible to resist the lure of that transcendent, peer-driven season of glamour, ecstasy, and Utopianism. It was billed as the Summer of Love, and its creators did not employ a single publicist or craft a media plan. Yet the phenomenon washed over America like a tidal wave, erasing the last dregs of the martini-sipping Mad Men era and ushering in a series of liberations and awakenings that irreversibly changed our way of life.

“It was this magical moment … this liberation movement, a time of sharing that was very special,” with “a lot of trust going around,” says Carolyn “Mountain Girl” Garcia, who had a baby with Ken Kesey, the man who helped kick off that season, and who then married Jerry Garcia, the man who epitomized its fruition. “The Summer of Love became the template: the Arab Spring is related to the Summer of Love; Occupy Wall Street is related to the Summer of Love,” says Joe McDonald, the creator and lead singer of Country Joe and the Fish and a boyfriend of one of that summer’s two queens, Janis Joplin. “And it became the new status quo,” he continues. “The Aquarian Age! They all want sex. They all want to have fun. Everyone wants hope. We opened the door, and everybody went through it, and everything changed after that. Sir Edward Cook, the biographer of Florence Nightingale, said that when the success of an idea of past generations is ingrained in the public and taken for granted the source is forgotten.”

Well, here is that source, according to the people who lived it.
