    Ohio SOS Wants to Ban Biden From Ballot

    Still shows they are not competent. Spilling something and having to clean up your mistake is NOT the same as being competent and not spilling. When the have to do damage control to correct their mistake it still shows a total absence of forethought and planning. Weed is now legal in Ohio...

    Ohio SOS Wants to Ban Biden From Ballot

    No it is an example of competence. They knew about the deadline and took care of it beforehand. If you have a test and one person just does not bother to show up while another talked to the teacher beforehand and explains they are having surgery on that day and gets an exemption. One behavior...

    Ohio SOS Wants to Ban Biden From Ballot

    The Republicans have nothing to do with this. The filing deadline is the same as it ever was. The DNC decided to hold their convention late and never noticed that if they nominated Joe late they would miss the filing deadline. This demonstrates how the Democrats just cant do anything...

    Where To Buy A Silicon Wafer ?

    I'm sure the technology exists to take one of those 4 inch wafers and add some type of soft backing to it possibly using some stuff I read about on Wikipedia called "Glue". I see no reason why it would not be functionally equivalent to my Win 95 CD.

    Where To Buy A Silicon Wafer ?

    No they are not, they function EXACTLY the same. When you use a CD as a coaster you set your drink on and it protects the your desktop from moisture When a Silicon wafer is used as a coaster you place your drink on it and it protects the desk from moisture.

    Where To Buy A Silicon Wafer ?

    Hmm. Perhaps it's time to replace the Win 95 CD (in jewel case with COA) that I've been using as a coaster for the past 25 years.

    Are Babies high?

    Many intoxicating substances work by blocking signals passing between nerve cells thus giving the Whooo! feeling In baby brains many of the connections have not yet formed so no signals are flowing. Is their gurgling drooling laughter because they are in the realm snoop can only dream about.

    Curse of Oak Island, S11, premieres Tues. Nov. 7th

    I remember reading about this as a kid back in the late 70s early 80s. Watching the show I feel that anything that was there has been trampled to death. Any artifacts they are finding now are from the people who first found the pit in the 1700s and not from those who made the pit. In the pre...

    I find it fascinating NYC air quality is amazing as the suburbs

    Probably has something to do with the thousands of miles of vast emptiness to the east and the direction of the wind. For judging NYC's true air quality it would be best to wait for a temperature inversion trapping stagnant air in one place for a few days
