Once upon a time in America, music was available live, or on a machine called an acoustic gramophone. A large distributor of such high tech equipment was known as The Victor Talking Machine Company created the Victrola. The device soon became known as a phonograph machine, and later the record player.

There was an innovative idea conceived by a few individuals to place these high tech devices into the new high tech transportation of the day, the Motor Car.
Being aspies probably, they decided to name their company and new invention “Motorola”.
Now you know Moto 8)

During winter?


It's spring here. Even if it was winter, I live in a temperate climate, so it doesn't get all that cold, and I can afford blankets.

A bottle of Bundaberg rum and cola is only $7. God I've been missing out.

I'll no longer need to scum it from my brother-in-law and sister.

People who say, imply or think that anyone has less of a right to exist, or is less of a person because of how they speak, dress, move (insert anything that is A. Not controllable or B. Absolutely nothing to do with a person's worth here); anyone who holds this view, and would advocate torture, suicide, death for such non-normal people, belongs in one of the lower circles of Hell.

Racial favoritism is as equally idiotic as racial hatred.
