What Would You Eliminate?
I hear tell that the Illinois government folks are trying to eliminate the stupid time changes that happen twice a year.
Finally! Something good! Those time changes are such a waste of...wait for it...TIME!!
"Spring ahead,"or "fall backwards" makes us confused, tired, clumsy, bad drivers, cranky, late or early, and feel as if we stepped into The Twilight Zone!
So, I'm happy they are working on getting rid of that useless time manipulation! Even though, I have my doubts about their success.
With this in mind, what other things would you like to eliminate, that make no sense, are useless, time consuming and dumb?
I'll start us out. How's about space travel? What has space travel given us, hmmm? Tang? Velcro? A few moon rocks?
Picture of actual moon rock. Ain't it grand?
Shoot! We can't breathe in space! That should give us a hint we're not supposed to go there!
We spend trillions of dollars to go to places that are unable to sustain human life!
Okay, Matt Damon is an exception.
In addition, I've seen enough syfy movies to know that we would definitely encounter vicious, man-eating aliens, flesh devouring diseases, deadly, giant asteroids that will smash our space vehicles, sun flares, Van Allen radiation belts, and sharp edged space junk, in the deep, dark, depths of outer space!
Another thing we don't need is insurance! Try to keep up with me on this, okay?
Tomorrow we wake up, and there is no such thing as insurance. Hospitals and doctors could not charge hundreds of thousands of dollars for stuff, because everyone could only pay out of pocket!
When we accidentally smash our pickup truck into the neighbors "she-shed" (with her in it), she could not sue us for a million bucks in damages and injuries, if insurance didn't exist!
Before insidious insurance, everyone could only pay what was considered fair to both parties. Folks didn't have a stash of millions in cash, to make the suing party fabulously rich!
Doctors got chickens in payment, instead of enough insurance money to buy a private island!
"Gazing balls" are ABSOLUTELY unnecessary, my friends!
I never could figure out what purpose they serve! I'll look it up.
Gazing balls or gazing globes have been used to decorate gardens for centuries. These iridescent glass orbs, often perched atop a pedestal or wrought iron base, were originally believed to ward off evil and bring good luck. Today they are merely decorative objects peeking out among plants and reflecting the garden.
I still don't get it. I'll stick with sensible yard decorations, like gnomes and flamingos!
Now is your opportunity to share what YOU think should be eliminated!
Disclaimer: Any snarky remarks about me or Bloggadocious 222 needing to be eliminated will be stricken from the record. If you think wars, poverty, diseases, and such, should be wiped out, we already know that, so don't waste your tom with all that. Please, no political jokes about Trump or Pelosi being eliminated, because we are apolitical here...
Please don't let me down, gang! Your comments will make or break this blog posting, however, do not feel pressured to comment, because life is not about getting involved in stupid surveys. questionnaires, opinion polls and stuff like that. It's about ELIMINATING things like surveys, questionnaires, opinion polls and stuff like that!
If you have the hankerin' to tell us what needs to be eliminated, be my guest. If you wish to abstain from commenting, that's your
