I liked the fact that the Flat Earth Society chartered a cruise liner, and the captain took some delight in explaining how the GPS system depended on satellites orbiting the globe 2 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Storey Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 One prominent flat earther is, apparently, a purveyor of some popular music. B.o.B. or more recently Bobby somethang. He said he had joined the movement, not so much because he believed absolutely in the belief propounded, but in order to encourage a belief in the ability to challenge accepted norms (including the moon landings being falsified). But now he seems to believe it, having sought $1m to launch satellites to prove his theory. He has raised at least $6,000 in four years.... Like the belief that his music is any good? Apparently not. Money talks, is his most profound proof, and he has an awful lot. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold ikks Posted May 26, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 26, 2019 Hilary and Bill In late 1996, just after Bill Clinton had beaten Bob Dole in the presidential election but before the inauguration, Bill and Hillary are in the presidential motorcade just leaving Little Rock, Arkansas, heading back to that town’s airport, where Airforce One is awaiting to take them back to Washington. As they pass by a dingy little garage on the edge of town, just as dusk falls, Hillary points it out and says, "You see that garage, Bill? I used to go out with the man that owns that garage." Wryly amused, the President chortles and says, "That is amazing, Hillary! Just think, if you had married him, you’d be the wife of a garage proprietor." "No, Bill," Hillary says firmly. "If I’d married him, he’d be president. 2 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"If I’d married him, he’d be president. I've seen that before, about Ed and Lily Schreyer, when he was Premier of the Canadian province of Manitoba (he went on to be the Governor General of Canada). I'd presume it's been told about other political couples as well. The last two lines were a bit different. Changing them in your version: Wryly amused, the President chortles and says, "That is amazing, Hillary! If you'd married him, just think where you would be today." Hillary says firmly. "If I’d married him, today I would be married to the President of the USA." Edited May 26, 2019 by pH 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold The Johnster Posted May 26, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 26, 2019 Clinton is said to be responsible for the following; on being sworn in as president, he was invited to a film showing by the Legitimate Businessmen's Association. Shown into a screening room, the lights went down and the Zapruda footage of the Kennedy assassination screened. Then a man came in and said 'Have you got any questions, Mr President?'. 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardly a believable story, in view of how US potus {and the rest of the Senate} get there in the first place! Regards Julian 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cynicism might be attributed to the ability of a mere 70+ year old's ability to recognise one Medieval historical development into civilised government, compared to the 500+ year lack of development of another, very, rich society lacking the same ability to recognise the benefits of mutual support.
