Rodger Pettichord Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 (edited) Hi all. Toddlers are famous for two words -- "No!' and "Why?" In the adult world, the over-use of the first word probably explains most of the world's woes. The use of the second, however, may well explain most of humanity's advancements. Therefore I thought "Why not?" and thus this week's topic. THIS WEEK'S MEANINGLESS TOPIC: Why?

Ken Q Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 You bet, Rodge! Rule # 1: Mom is always right. Rule # 2: In the event that Mom should be wrong, refer to rule # 1. Also applies to Wife, Captain, Cat, (especially Cat) or any other figure of ultimate authority. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine just says "No!". 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
