Unreal. Look at him standing tall, unwavering.... Now we're scared to stand tall when there isn't even threat of harm!!! 😉😉(you know what I'm getting at)

I have such an admiration for our old timers and those that lived in that period. What a beautiful time in our history 👍👍
Then who took HIS picture???
I wonder how long the elites and fake news corporations and NASA and the film industry have had photoshop and just didn't tell us about it. :?:

Y'know...that seems very plausible. Looking at that picture, it seems unreal.

They've had the ability to edit photos ever since photography became a thing, it just wasn't digital photo editing.

I agree.

On that note, check out all those whitewashed skies, and blurred out faces on so many early "church history" photos - esp. the ones showing early temples being "built".

It was common to touch up early photographs for the simple reason that both the cameras and the film stock were awful and resulted in grainy photographs.

Things to ponder as you age . . .


The inventor of the treadmill died at the age of 54 😳
The originator of gymnastics died at the age of 57 😳
The past world bodybuilding champion died at the age of 41 😳
The best soccer player in history, Maradona, died at the age of 60 😔

And then . . .
KFC inventor died at 94 😊
Inventor of Nutella brand died at the age of 88 😊
Cigarette maker Winston died at the age of 102 😜
The inventor of opium died at the age of 116 in an earthquake 😜
Hennessy cognac, Irish inventor died at 98 😊

How did doctors come to the conclusion that exercise prolongs life?
The rabbit is always jumping, but it lives for only 2 years.
The turtle that doesn't exercise at all, lives 400 years.

So . . .
Have a drink,
Take a nap,
And if you wake up, have bacon and eggs.

It was called "Not the slightest bit funny" or something like that. I posted maybe 3 or 4 different times in it. Some people viewed it, but I don't recall that anyone posted. No big deal. I couldn't find it on search.

I think some people got offended at him suggesting people got too easily offended, or something him being a bigot (intollerance to other opinions) for believing gender is biologically significant.
