Yes, an ill liver - though my last lab work said it was trying to heal. Signs of healing.

However, in context, that "throw my mini-van" comment was actually a simile comparing to how far I would trust president Biden. Since I can't pick up and throw my mini-van at all, ...

Sorry if I used a literary "tool" that was too abstract for you, Adam.

a liver is a self-healing organ, if you didn't know. and you thought I was serious in my questioning of what you said? hmmmm....makes me question a lot of things about you. and you need not concern yourself with being too abstract. that is no issue whatsoever. I learned abstraction long ago from @MajP . He was a terrific help in using the tools I needed to learn all of that stuff.

It is - and it isn't. It has its limits and the question originally was "Had I taken it too far?" The answer appears to be "No."

makes me question a lot of things about you

I, on the other hand, have no questions about you. (At least, none that need answering.) I have no doubt that MajP was very helpful in the field of programming abstraction. I was referring to a literary device for which there is one and only one tool - the human mind.

 

[conception_native_0123]

The human mind.

And I think we all know who's got the best one around here don't we?

@Jon

Oh wait, he's got the most scientific. That doesn't always mean the best.

Happy Memorial Day to all that serve

 

[Isaac]

Happy Memorial Day everyone. I'm thankful for everyone who has served, and all the things that have been given, lost, and endured up till this point for me to be able to live in freedom.

In memory of Sgt. Loyd J Tabor, US Army, 3rd wave on Omaha Beach, D-Day. Sgt. Tabor assisted in liberation of more than one "death camp."

Pretty soon the whole universe and all experiences contained therein will just be in our imagination. We're already about halfway there in the USA

More Twitter hypocrisy

I think we are pretty much ALL the way there for that matter

Might check out South Dakota after Tennesse this fall!

 

[conception_native_0123]

did not know that SD had a republican governor. but then again, SD is NOT either coast. so that makes perfect sense.

Might check out South Dakota after Tennesse this fall!

I have said as much to my wife several times over the past year. SD scenery appears to be stunning, I never realized this until Kristi's somewhat rise to fame over the past little while and then somehow saw a bunch of nature pics, wow. What a place!

 

[Steve R.]

As a side note. Listening to Kristi Noem expounding on the people/business moving to SD made me cringe. It is the lack of people that make living in rural areas great. Nevada, at least Las Vegas and Reno, has been corrupted (swinging Democratic) by the influx of people. Then there is Austin, TX, a mini-California. When extolling population/business growth; be careful of what you are asking for, you might find-out it is not what you expected.

Yeah I get it, only so much room in the lifeboat.

I feel his pain having taken a 6 hr. motorcycle ride with no sunblock on my arms on a 90 degree day on Sunday.
