Playing baseball at the North Pole...
The first ballgame played at the North Pole, 1960. Crewmembers of the USS Seadragon, a nuclear submarine, laid out the field with the pitcher's mound as close to the exact point of the North Pole as they could reckon it. Every time a ball was hit into right field it crossed the International Dateline, and was, therefore, hit into the next day. But when the right fielder threw the ball back in, it came back to "today"... or for him, "yesterday"... I guess.
And of course, being at the northernmost point possible, all of the players were technically "southpaws", second base was 12 hours away from home plate, and to round the bases, a player would technically go around the world.
Also there are months-long stretches of perpetual daylight, and others of steady darkness at the North Pole. So a baseball season there might involve several months of nothing but "day" games or several months of all "night" games.

They tax the tax we've already paid. How crazy is that?
Some people say Social Security taxes aren't taxes - they're forced savings. Well, okay, maybe so, but you have zero choices. Sammy's gonna take it and hold it no matter what. And then he's got the balls to tax us for the benefit he forced on us? That ain't fair - it's true, but ya know what's even less fair? When the state you live in grabs a piece of that benefit for themselves, too. That kinda bullshit should not be tolerated.
Five states tax SSI benefits - Nebraska, Colorado, Connecticut, Minnesota and Montana. For the record? Florida doesn't have - and doesn't need to have - a state income tax.

The French gave them crap. Maybe they should ask for a refund...
They knew the bronze - and even some of the gold medals - were tacky garbage when they got 'em, and here they are less than a year ago, and he's got the nasty ass proof to back it up. The story and more photos are here.
It's hard to remember life before the internet
"Computer technology now moves so fast it's hard to remember life before the internet. But just 19 years ago at the beginning of the nineties, the fledgling world wide web had no search engines, no social networking sites, and no webcam.
The scientists credited with inventing the first webcam - thereby launching the revolution that would bring us video chats and live webcasts - stumbled upon the idea in pursuit of something far more old-fashioned: hot coffee.
As computer geeks at the University of Cambridge beavered away on research projects at the cutting edge of technology, one piece of equipment was indispensable to the entire team - the coffee percolator."
This excerpt is from a fascinating article you can find here.
I ain't dissin' the man, but...
I mean, aside from the Camp David Accords, he was most famous for what he did when he wasn't in office, if ya get my drift...
Former Presidents George H.W. Bush, Ronald Regan, Jimmy Carter, Gerald Ford, and Richard Nixon at the dedication of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library on Nov. 4, 1991. He wasn't exactly a stellar leader, and his legacy has probably been redeemed somewhat by Joe Biden's, if ya know what I mean.
During his presidency, we had nearly 20% inflation, gas rationing, the hostage crisis, and - as he famously said - a 'national malaise'.
As the accolades roll in in the next coupla days - he really was a textbook 'nice guy', try to figure out what 'they' will say when Biden eventually croaks.
Juss' sayin'...

I know the joke's a little subtle with the little kid reading a wooden letter block, but just fast forward to today, and they'd be doing the same thing with cell phones and tablets.

The number follows a 12% increase the previous year and is the highest since the federal government began an annual count of the homeless population in 2007. The figure is likely an undercount, as it does not include people temporarily staying with family and friends.
... 
The shelves and prices at your local grocery store could look a little different soon. The Colorado River, which provides water for about 15% of our country’s agriculture, is shrinking, and the current agreement that divvies up the water usage ends in 2026.
The Imperial Valley in Southern California relies 100% on the Colorado River for its water. This valley receives less than three inches of rain a year, yet still produces about two-thirds of the country’s winter produce.
Obviously, whatever they're doing, they're doing too much of it - in the wrong place - diminishing the supply. Don't go all 'climate change/global warming' bullshit on me over this. If so much demand wasn't put on the river, they'd be bitching about having too much water, so shut the fuck up, okay?
