Mediums and psychics be joyous! Imagine having two unfettered years of being able to communicate with a dead man!

"Tell us! What's it like on the other side?"
"Other side of what? This table? Well, I'm facing the window so you're in silhouette."
"Fascinating. Have you been reunited with any loved ones?"
"Today? Well, my daughter brought me these bagels. Here, try the lox."

You just can't make this stuff up... :biggrin:

https://www.cnn.com/2019/01/04/us/woman-kidnap-karate-studio-charlotte-trnd/index.html

Cops say a would-be kidnapper chased a woman -- into a karate studio. That was a bad move.
Ephraim said he asked the man to leave, but he stated he was not going anywhere. "He then tried to force himself further into the dojo, aggressively pushing and swinging," the instructor said.
"I then went into action defending myself and got him out of the dojo. Once outside he attempted to attack again and was dealt with accordingly."

There is no NASA. It's all a Hollywood hoax.

Always a pleasure:

The "Real" Reason Scientists Are Lying About The Earth Being Round According To Flat-Earthers
"If some scientist revealed it tomorrow on CNN, or whatever, and it was broadcast that the Earth is not (round) --- there's potential for some real shock waves, some real upheaval. The first one is academic --- literally in every university in every country, astrophysics and astronomy would have to be shut down overnight. Those would not reopen."
