ON MY SOAPBOX…Number, please
What would our world be like without numbers? Can you just imagine giving directions without numbers? We would be back to the days of Lewis Grizzard. He said, “To get anywhere…you have to turn by The Big Chicken sign in Marietta, Georgia.”
Without numbers, by the time Amazon or UPS found your house to deliver your medicines, they would be expired.
“Oh look, I have a telephone…I can’t wait until they create numbers.”
“What is your Social Security…never mind…get back with me on that.”
But I do have a serious question about numbers.
(Silly things bother me when I am bored, in the cold of Winter.)
The numerical system, as we know it goes like this:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10…, that’s cool. Then it moves on to:
Eleven, Twelve, Thirteen, etc. Then…..
Twenty one, Twenty two, Twenty three, etc. Then it goes consistently with that pattern all the way through the Nineties.
My question is:
Why did they not use Tenty one, Tenty two, Tenty three instead of the, out of the ordinary, Eleven, Twelve, Thirteen, etc.?
This bothers me. I believe there was a serious Numbers Revolt in history that was not recorded.
Maybe thirteen is not really a Baker’s Dozen? Perhaps it is Tenty three.
To be honest with you, I think that is why there were only Ten Little Indian Boys. Three syllable Eleven would have upset the rhythm of the little song.
“Ten Little Indians” Original Version
One little, two little, three little Indians
Four little, five little, six little Indians
Seven little, eight little, nine little Indians
Ten little Indian boys.
Ten little, nine little, eight little Indians
Seven little, six little, five little Indians
Four little, three little, two little Indians
One little Indian boy.
(Like I said….Silly things bother me when I am bored, in the cold of Winter.)
Good Morning…The Unicorn Song
My personal opinion…there is an undiscovered island, that Greedy Mankind & Politicians have not discovered. It is a beautiful place… filled with Unicorns, Rainbows, and Fulfilled Dreams. You do not believe me…Then Hey, Hey…You, You..get off my cloud!

ON MY SOAPBOX…The R Word
WRITTEN BY: SHEILA TOLLEY
I believe the word “racist” is the most over-used and abused word circulating in our country today. In reality, the FAKE racist problem in America starts with Joe Biden and his cabinet. Next, it is moved along by the the manure spreaders of MSM. Then finally, the lies are distributed by social media and many wanna-be reporters who eagerly promote the propaganda. (Hoping one day to get an invite to join the circle of Idiots at The View. Whoopee!)
Anything can trigger action of this R word now. I do believe I could say, “The Christmas decorations at the White House were beautiful this year” and MSM would identify me as a racist because my sentence contained the word, white. Just for the record, I am not responsible for making Angel Food cake white while Devil’s Food cake is chocolate. I did not bring terrible storms from the black clouds while beautiful sunshine radiates around the white puffy clouds. I was not even the one who discovered black holes in our universe. I have never sold or bought untaxed cigarettes, rhinoceros horns, marijuana, fake identification records, elephant tusks, illegal drugs, or tiger skins on something called The Black Market. I have never blacklisted, blackballed or blackmailed anyone.
Maybe Noah actually started this dilemma. Perhaps he should have sent a crow with the dove to fetch the olive branch. In Noah’s defense, due to the heavy rains and rocking boat, he probably did not realize that centuries later…. we would have encompassing social media with idiotic reporters that would prove to be…
“AS CRAZY AS OUTHOUSE RATS!”
Proof Positive
There is more than one….
My Pillow Man!
