Cast1es comments on Sep 15, 2018:

It's a constantly changing field . In the beginning , when home computers first came out , things appeared to be going backwards . First we had telegraphs , then we radios , then we had black and white TV , then we had color TV , etc . Then computers came out , letters only on black and white monitors . Then primitive motion , mostly dots , with weird , "music." Then low pixel count cartoon like characters . It's like all the TV related bits , had to be learned all over again . Now , your phone can do a lot more than those first computers could do . I have a word for it . It's magic !

Ignorance of a child yields delusional happiness?

Cast1es comments on Sep 15, 2018:

Thousands of years ago , at a time when life , death , all the terrors of the world , were not understood , a child lost someone near and dear to them . How can a parent or sibling comfort that child ? Someone made up a fairy tale . Instead being placed in the ground and having a lot of dirt locking that special someone underground for forever , or the body shredded by hungary wild animals , the loved one went to a better place , to wait for the time when they could be together again . We still don't know for sure , and the fairy tale continues to be told .

Cast1es comments on Sep 15, 2018:

It may have to do with duration . If you give your credit card number , someone could conceivable continue to use it , instead of using it for a single transaction . If, on the other hand you were a female , the possibility exists that one intimate transaction , could lead to a twenty year payment of over a quarter of a million dollars to raise an unanticipated child .

Cast1es comments on Sep 14, 2018:

I had been working for the Agency for about ten years or so . I had transferred into a new section within the Agency , about a year previously . I was walking with a coworker , who unexpectedly held a door for me . I said , "Thank you ." After which , he commented , " See , this is why men get paid more than women , for doing the same job ." I was shocked . I pointed out to him , that I had been opening doors for myself , since I had gotten there , in some instances , I'd even held the door for male coworkers , and this was the very first time anyone had held the door for me . Following his criteria though , if getting a raise depended on holding a door , once , then I was way overdue for a raise . Chivalry is way more than taking credit for holding a door .

Cast1es comments on Sep 13, 2018:

People don't usually , "just lose interest , or just dry up ." Generally speaking , it's because the relationship no longer makes them feel good about themselves . If one side of the relationship is a person putting a lot of themselves into maintaining the relationship , but the other side puts little or no effort into it , the loving feeling , dies , because it was killed .

Cast1es comments on Sep 12, 2018:

Sometimes what the medical groups sell us doesn't work either . Sometimes , it even makes things worse . Sometimes , using things that have been used for thousands of years , actually have a positive effect . When I was young and pregnant for the first time , my doctor recommended a drug for morning sickness , that the pharmasutical agent had just told him about . This was 1962 . Several months after my daughter was born , the CDC made a Nation wide announcement on the evening news . Mothers who took this medication , were giving birth to children born without fingers , toes , hands , feet , arms , legs , eyes , or genitilia . Today , a salesman was in my home , talking to me about fencing . He was scratching his hands and arms due to mosquitoe bites . I went to my kitchen and brought him a soaked cotton cosmetic pad , and told him to wipe everywhere that itched. WIthin a minute or so , he had no more itches . My secret ? Apple cider vinegar . Cheap , fast , effective , easy to acquire , and no side effects . Told him to carry a small bottle , and some cotton cosmetic pads , in his car .

You need to practice until your fingers can find them without you actually thinking about them - like walking . When you were a baby and just learning to walk , there was a lot to learn . Figuring out the mechanics involved - get your balance , shift all of your weight to one foot , lift the other foot up and move it forward , put that foot down , shift your weight to that one , then lift the other foot , while maintaining your balance . Now you not only don't think about any of these , in all likelyhood , you don't even think about how to get to where you're going . Practice until your fingers dance over the cords , without thinking about it .

So that's what that stands for ! Saw the abbreviation , but never put the two together before . Actually , there are those claiming the baby boomers had the golden age and all the money . So let's think of that then . I was in elementary school when Eisenhower was voted into office , in the early fifties . During his reign , I recently learned , big corporations were being taxed at 90% . We were recovering from both the great depression and world war II , and life was returning to normal . What makes anyone think Trump is going to tax those with the greatest incomes ?
