Local Busts
Two local ladies who are known to us were busted recently by LE in an affluent suburban town south of here. It is the kind of news that would not even be reported in a big city, but one local TV station in particular not only made a big thing out of it, but also went out of its way to humiliate the ladies and invade their privacy. Here is the TV report.
MFM Scenarios
I have just heard from a Canadian provider-friend announcing a new MFM service.
You have the choice of having the other guy:
- just watch
- participate as a straight male
- participate as a bi male
The last one is a new twist I have not heard of. Suffice to say I am not interested in any of the scenarios.
Adam and Eve
A student was given an oral exam after a Bible class. Teacher: "Who was the first woman?" Student: "That's easy. Eve." Teacher: "Correct! Where did Eve first live?" Student: "That's easy too. Garden of Eden." Teacher: "Correct! What did Eve say when she first met Adam?" Student: "Now that's a hard one." Teacher: "Correct!"
USA Memory Champion
This is a depressing story for anyone like me whose days are marked by episodes of Senior Moments.
Ronnie White, of Fort Worth, TX, a former US Navy intelligence officer who served in Afghanistan, won the USA Memory Championship in NYC last Saturday for the second year in a row.
Some of the competitions at this championship included memorizing:
- 2 decks of cards
- the names of 99 people and their pictures
- a 50-line poem in free verse
- over 100 single numbers in the right order
White, who is able to memorize a deck of cards in 1.5 minutes, will go on to represent the USA at the World Memory Championships in Guangzhou, China in November.
His prospects for winning there are not great. Last year's world champion memorized a randomly shuffled deck of 52 cards in 24 seconds.
Now, if I can only remember what I ate this morning.
