"Sarcasm, Sheldon."

I thought as much, but given that you're officially older than dirt, I figured I'd err on the side of caution in case you were having trouble figuring out how to get screen captures on your Motorola flip phone.

Speaking of telephone history, some day you've really got to tell us the stories about how you baby sat for Alexander Graham Bell...


I thought by that point in his career he was already senior editor for Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper.

Babysitting was his side hustle.

Back when he could still hustle... :rofl:

Public School Libraries: Then Vs. Now

Then: There were 9 planets, as you could learn from any of the astronomy books.

Now: There are still 9 planets, but all the dumb books say there are only 8 for some dumb reason.

This!

In a groundbreaking study conducted by the Institute of Essential Masculinity, researchers have discovered that the key to a man's happiness is a simple yet effective solution: regular flyovers by the iconic A-10 Warthog.

"Forget therapy, forget expensive hobbies, all you need is the sweet sound of freedom roaring overhead," Lead researcher, Dr. Chuck "Maverick" Thompson, explained. "After years of rigorous research involving thousands of men from all walks of life, we can confidently say that the happiness quotient of any man can be significantly boosted by the unmistakable sound of an A-10 Warthog tearing through the sky with its 30mm Vulcan blazing."

"BRRRRRRRRRRRT!" he added.

At publishing time, it was reported that a man who saw a massive A-10 Warthog thunder overhead at the same time as an old M4 Sherman tank drove by immediately died of happiness.
