I would love to have another 30 years (hopefully with less major health problems than the last 51 years). I imagine that my ongoing congestive heart failure will flare up again, and finally take me out. I would like to see my kids get happily married and have kids of thier own.

I got to thinking, which would you prefer to know?

When you will die or How you will die?
I would like to know where...

THEN I WOULD NEVER VISIT THAT PLACE!

SLACKERS!

But seriously, some history of heart attack in my family but the Doc is on top of that. Also history of diabetes and I'm at type 2 but Doc is on top of that too.

Watched my dad slowly die of cancer, that scares me.

I am the first of this generation who will live forever. The government is already after me to take blood and DNA samples.

Anybody else remember Clinton's surgeon general, Jocelyne (sp?) Elders? Along with pleading for "safer bullets" she said that "Most people will probably die of somethin' or other, sooner or later."

Anybody else remember George Bush ("Shrub") discussing fatal shootings in America?

"For every fatal shooting, there were roughly three non-fatal shootings. And, folks, this is unacceptable in America. It’s just unacceptable. And we’re going to do something about it."

comments made during his address on Project Safe Neighborhoods Initiative at the Pennsylvania Convention Center (Philadelphia, PA), May 14, 2001

He was saying that there were too many people being shot.
Obviously you feel there were not enough and we needed to increase the number of shootings.
See how this fits:




PS this is not PARF.

Thanks for translating what the dumass-in-chief was saying. I don't speak "moron" but I see it's no trouble for someone as gifted as you are!

“I’d like to die like my father died,” he says. “My father died fcking…he DID! My father was 57 when he died. The woman was 18. My father came and went at the same time. […] I just figured God must’ve loved my Father an awful lot to let him go out like THAT.” – Richard Pryor



Caution um Richard Pryor does use some not safe for work adult language. But dang this is a funny clip.

Don't sell yourself short, you are way too modest when it comes to stupidity.
But you seem to be very emotional.
Instead of using logic or common sense, you seem to let your emotions run rampant and control your thoughts. Much like a child.

You obviously don't like the former president so you go on attack mode, making erroneous statements and claims that are not based in fact. But they make those little voices happy and that's all that matters for people like you with limited mental capacity. Right?

President bush graduated from Yale University in 1968 and Harvard Business School in 1975. He was a very successful businessman and politician.

Which ivy league schools did you gradumacate from?
None?
Huh, that's strange. You have no problem calling a man a dumass and a moron, but you don't realize he's much smarter than you and has accomplished a thousand times more than you ever hope to.

So where does that put you on that smart-dumass scale?
I'm guessing at the very bottom.

You should have left it in PARF you bleeding heart liberal idiot.

I'm glad Sammy cleared it up. I don't get the language myself.
