Big Blue Huddle

Saw this and it made me laugh.



Bill

After being married for 50 years, a man took a careful look at his wife one day and said, "Fifty years ago we had a cheap house, a junk car, slept on a sofa bed, and watched a 10-inch black and white TV. But hey, I got to sleep every night with a hot 23-year-old girl. Now... we have a $750,000 home, a $45,000 car, a nice big luxurious bed, and a large-screen TV, but I'm sleeping with a 73-year-old woman."

So he said to his wife, "it seems to me you're not holding up your side of things."

His wife was a reasonable woman and replied, "you should go out and find yourself a hot 23-year-old girl. And I will make sure you will once again be living in a cheap house, driving a junk car, sleeping on a sofa bed, and watching a 10-inch black and white TV."

As a kid, I can still remember one thing on the Jetsons that did come true.   One of the common troupes on TV, when I was a kid was characters in the army having to do KP.  So they had that on the Jetsons, and I can remember they had to push a button to peel the potatoes.   They were complaining about how terrible that job was.  I thought to myself, "how hard is it to just push a button?"  Now fast forward a few decades, and people complain about having to click a mouse button an extra time or having to click through on a hyperlink rather than landing on what they want directly.

But where's my flying car?

It's coming. Problem isn't making a flying car though (there's all kinds of prototypes) but how to control the air they would be traveling in. You think it's hard for air traffic controllers to keep passenger (and private) planes from crashing into each other, imagine the nightmare if all the cars you see on the highways were in the air without barriers and lines. It would only work if 99%+ of the traffic stuck to the highway and it would still be chaotic with crashes and harm to infrastructure everywhere, coming from the sky

funny for seniors

So we win a playoff game and we are all giddy









 

This is not a joke, but it's so funny I hurt from laughing and I don't feel like starting a new thread or digging through old threads where it might fit, so I'm just sharing it in the joke thread. It's a 60-second clip from the movie "Hall Pass" in which a married man is given a "freedom pass" from his wife to do anything he wants for a week, as if he was single again. He picks up a girl and brings her back to his hotel room...with no further ado:

An extra big batch to cheer everyone up after yesterday's loss:
