Reminds me of a comment made by 'Keefer' in Herman Wouk's 'The Caine Mutiny:' The Navy's manual is written by idiots to be executed by morons... (or something like that). ~ Anchors Aweigh, Robert!

Gershon, the final line in a poem about Monkeys......"Yes, man descended, the ornery cuss, but brother he didn't descend from us"

Devolving more by the minute. Soon the Truth will be a spineless amoeba, crushed by Mountains of Lies. ~ Say it ain't so!

Tom, how about you and me? You and I get in line behind the rest of the world's 'nobodies' ready to gun down Putin, while Biden fiddles and Ukraine burns. :) gw

Truth be told, it's a pity I had to be so pithy! Thanks, Valsa.
