A Somewhat Crazy Theory About The Pyramids
Is this a lot of crazy hogwash or is there something to it?
What do you think?
New 'Marshall Plan' Could Solve Our Immigration Woes
Repost
It worked once. It could again. May be cheaper then $upporting multitudes constantly arriving here. When it comes to future trade it might eventually financially benefit us as well.

These days we tend to over complicate things. Sometimes history can provide us with some of the solutions. In this case I feel it's worth trying. Up this point nothing else seems to have worked..

Us Old Kids Remember...
Reposted From: July 22, 2009


*Rotary dial 12 channel televisions with no remote control. Parents made the kids 'the remote control'. They adjusted the horizontal roll knob every 5 minutes too!
*Only shopping during the day, Monday to Saturday
*Texting our friends via mail, the handwritten kind
*Mechanical typewriters (w/ white correction ribbons). Don't punch the 'o' so hard, it makes holes in the paper.
*One phone per house with real bells in them with short cords (parents put them in living room so they could listen to you)
*Actually having to remember someone’s phone number
*65 cent 45 rpm singles (you had to actually had to plug in a player to listen to them- broken needles)
*PF Flyers (Posture Foundation- They were first produced by BF Goodrich in 1937- you can still buy them)
*Returnable bottles (what I refer to as actually recycling)
*Non power assisted drum brakes on all 4 wheels (try braking after going through a puddle)
*Vacuum Wipers (worked really good at the stop light when you weren't accelerating)
*Calculator (pencil & paper)
*Slide Rule? What's that? (an improvement over the pencil & paper calculator)
*A full 1/2 gallon of ice cream
*Fast Food (Chef Boyardee in a can)
* Feel free to add your own to the list..
