In the USA, a number of breakfast food factories have recently burned down.
Police are hunting for a cereal arsonist.

Re: Thought for Today
"It is not true that the English invented cricket as a way of making all other human endeavours look interesting and lively; that was merely an unintended side effect.
I don't wish to denigrate a sport that is enjoyed by millions, some of them awake and facing the right way, but it is an odd game. It is the only sport that incorporates meal breaks. It is the only sport that shares its name with an insect. It is the only sport in which spectators burn as many calories as players (more if they are moderately restless)."

Re: Thought for Today
Is it true the Irish invented the original bagpipes? They apparently were trying to invent a person powered vacuum cleaner with all the attachments built in .... but it wasn't really a success so they throw their proto types out at the tip .... now it is said there was a Scottish gent working at the reuse and recycle facility they had way back then, the Scottish are well known for their ability to adapt what others see no value in ......

Re: Thought for Today
Terry,
You are partly right.
The Irish DID invent the bagpipes.
They then gave them to the Scots as a joke.
It’s just that the Scots haven’t seen the joke yet.

You're both partly right, the pipes actually evolved from the middle east a long time ago.

Much that passes as idealism is disguised hatred or disguised love of power.

Can we uninstall 2020 and reinstall it?
This version has a virus.

I think I need some relationship counselling.
