I received another census form in the mail today. The first one I got last week was already sent out. There was a letter inside telling me that if I already sent one in to disregard this one. How much is the government spending on this? So, to fill out one census I need a letter telling me it's coming, then the census it self, then a reminder to send it in, then another copy of the census. I wonder what company got the printing contract for all of this? Whoever they are they're probably making a bundle.
Ben Franklin couldnt have been much of a Ladies man, Being it was 1776 at the time and he himself was in his 70's. The invention of Viagra was not around. so a good most of what you read online or in books about his great exploites is, well, a bunch of crap. 😀 But you have to love his quotes none the less.
I wouldn't underestimate the sex lives of senior citizens. Here in Florida in a retirement town called the Villages, STDs are running rampant. Also, Franklin was a scientist - maybe he mixed his own viagraesque cocktails.
I'd like to know where in the Constitution it says that the government needs to mail me an announcement stating that the census form will be in my mailbox within a week, then another announcement reminding me to fill it out just days after I've received the actual census itself. Will I get a nice thank you note after my existence has been tallied?
Washington and TR are my favorites, but it's difficult to say who was best. A better question would be what president would have done better than another? For example, would Reagan have done better than TR during the early twentieth century? They were both great leaders, but would their skills transfer to different eras?But who was the best? I say William Henry Harrison - he wasn't around long enough to screw anything up!
