Re: The Picture Thread XII-- Dozen It Look Nice?

I think there are some burial mounds of comparable age in North America, but offhand I don't know of any more complex structures. There are artifacts dated back to 20,000 years, and possibly more, but it's stuff like knives and arrowheads, not buildings. North Americans were mostly nomadic.

Re: Check-In 134: George Reed Sophrosyne Tally Ho

Good evening, everybody. :hello: Not quite as recovered as I thought, but at least my head cleared enough to come up with a cartoon for Sunday. I was starting to get worried. :lol: Good morning, sneezers and wheezers. Don't forget geezers. :oldman: It's Wild Koala Day! There's nothing like Koalas Go...

Re: Check-In 134: George Reed Sophrosyne Tally Ho

Good morning, everybody. :hello: Well, I'm only slightly congested and I can look at the computer screen without flinching and bursting into tears, so there might be a normal day ahead. Golf was fun and now it's time to pack and get ready for tomorrow morning's flight to Newark, NJ. Have a nice flig...

Re: The Picture Thread XII-- Dozen It Look Nice?

This first one is a dolmen on the burrens. These are tombs built 5,000 years ago. The rocky landscape in central Ireland looks like something out of a sci-fi movie. That's fantastic. It's about as old as Stonehenge. Here's a view of the Ring of Kerry. It looks beautiful and sunny and warm, but let ...

Re: Infirmary Thread #21: Say "Aaargh!!"

I'm afraid this is all my fault. The General injected me with truth serum and I told him about you. This aroused his suspicion and I'm betting he used his usual Special Ops formula of chlorine, ammonia, acetic acid, and formaldehyde. This concoction rendered me blind once when I giggled after he hi...

Re: Questions Only IX: Interrogatives Abound

Gosh I hope that's exactly what they're teaching kids right now! You and I should be in charge of designing school curriculum. They've started to, but I don't know how widespread it is yet. With the Right and the Left fighting over control of the school system, it's not likely to get far. The only ...

Good evening, everybody. :hello: Another day of enforced meditation, although I got to get some reading done at least. :book: My previous vet told me the tapping on the forehead makes them swallow the pill. It worked for me. That's interesting. Also, there are Greenies Pill Pockets you can purchase ...

Re: Check-In 134: George Reed Sophrosyne Tally Ho

Good morning, everyone. :hello: Well, that was a weird night of tossing and turning with fever dreams. Overall, though, it feels like this thing might be almost over. Yikes, that sounds like a horrible day. I really hope you have a better day today :yes: I think I will. We'll see. It must be so grea...
