It's sad to see the ravages of age on the brain. IN THE SAME PARAGRAPH, a bold statement is made, then supported with a story that has NOTHING to do with the statement!

Is it inattention? Is it dementia? Is it the beginnings of "concrete thinking?"

It is truly sad to see somebody lacking class.

Ken M .... I pronounce you a certified dick.

I thought jogill's paragraph was quite coherent. We have a context of discussing national scandals, and in that context he makes a comparison to insidious developments that are not getting as much attention. He develops the theme with a story about one such insidious development. Ken M, I don't see what you are seeing here.

It's easy to be diverted away from sinister developments affecting one personally to national scandalous behavior.

Well the only thing I would quibble with is that the nationally scan_dolores behavior affects us all personally, every day.

I want my 401_K, I want my 401-K.


Get rid of Trump's, Romney's, the Cocks, that guy up in Nevada, Mercer (the list goes on) outrageous tax exemptions first.

I do not believe that the call from the spa was because the Iphones or whatever smart devices were on at the time, heard what the women were saying and created an ad for them instantaneously.

Is there any shred of proof that this spa company did this?
I would like to see it.
I would easily point to the fact that the women was probably already on the spa's list to call because of prior interest in spas, so they called at that time.
Occam's Razor is hard to disprove.

So I'm with Ken. you can't just post crazy talk without be called on it.

so when right wingers on ST turn this in to a name calling, smearing, bullying, and dividing campaign, I will have to shift the claim of being a dick to those folks that promote such talk

They're both brainwashed by the criminal corporate media wackjobs tools .....

DMT, add an ASR module (automatic speech recognition that turns audio to a text stream that can be programmatically manipulated) onto the existing tracker/ad platform, and it is not at all far-fetched.

All my voicemails go through an ASR with pretty decent accuracy except for unusual names. So the technology is there. Probably the main obstacle right now is a company worried about branding and customer privacy backlash. They have to figure out how to ease into the market in ways that customers appreciate without alienating them.

Somewhere along the way, our government will catch up and develop a legal framework, probably after some scandals and customer outrage, some watershed moment of an embarrassing privacy breach.

So it's a marketing problem- not a technology problem- from a company standpoint. And it's a societal/government policy issue that probably won't be appreciated until it goes unregulated to disastrous result.

It was a text message on my wife's friend's smartphone. Apparently someone was listening in, even though there wasn't an open link the woman was aware of, and sent the message as a prank. Still a tad unsettling.

Hum, maybe Cosmic also thinks Ken was talking about being addicted, rather than his use in his practice.

Care to clarify Cosmic?

Apparently my reading comprehension was just fine then , as I was talking about what NWO posted, and you criticised it without clarification.

Do you see the obvious problem there, Cosmic?

What ever happened to that rich benefactor you asked for to pay for your back surgery, then thanked God for providing? Than you claimed you never asked for help.

Then you tried to shame someone else for asking for help.

Cosmic: Any RICH Benefactors out there?

Then someone comes thru with the offer:

Cosmic: Thank you LORD, and someone else for making this possible!

Good, then don't shame others for asking for help when you did the very same thing.

Kids, if you don't get along back there I'm gonna pull the car over.
Everybody keep your hands and arms and feet on your own sides.
I know you're hungry and tired and cranky,
but we're stopping for dinner and bathroom break soon.
