But only if it makes that cool sound.

That would be cool. I think the only way I would like that idea is if they were autonomous. I don't like the idea of all that metal and glass zipping and zooping around with mere people at the controls!

I just added it up - I have spent over $500.00 in the last few months on fabric to make masks. Some hasn't arrived yet and there is some I ordered that may be made into throw pillows for oldest granddaughter's new hangout room that she wants to decorate like it's the basement set in That 70's Show.
Along with the purchase of elastic, thread, clips, buttons, bobbins, and other sewing notions this has become quite the expensive hobby. No, I haven't sold any. I have given them all away. My daughter says she found a dozen in her car the other day while looking for one to go with the clothes she was wearing.
If we are ever able to stop wearing masks I hope we can come up with an alternate use. That's a lot of time and money invested.

If only one of them ended up saving a life, every bit of the cost and labor will have been worth it.  Sad part is, you will probably never know for certain.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

If you buy something from the classifieds, are you allowed to tell people?

This makes me laugh
Quote:Ben Shapiro
Between Pelosi eating ice cream while people head to the breadlines and Pelosi getting a blow dry while businessowners are barred from opening, she's definitely got a Marie Antoinette thing going here.
Does Benny Boop think for 3 seconds Trump isn't shovelling mountains of KFC into his fat face ,And really Ben you are concerned about barred businesses ? Of course you are after all your the one who wants to open everything so everyone can be exposed to Covid and die for the glory of Capitalism!!!. But Nancy Pelosi is way worse for having a haircut ,And if anyone signifies opulence how about the guy who named a tower after himself and who owns an apartment that looks like he looted a palace of Versailles. Any comment on any of that Benny boy?
