Why dont they just defend themselves with their sidearms? Oh, wait.....
It was a guy from Arborsite who lost power during a storm and when it came back on, his refrigerator sounded funny and had a burning smell.
Checked stuff out and found all regular outlets were 240v
I had something similar happen at a job site, big storm, went in to do some work owner says Ill just throw the main and everything will be dead. Nope, half the house was hot still , shorted in the box somehow. Talk about jumping out of your shorts when thew outlet you pull is still hot with the main off
Mark Twain
“There is no such thing as a new idea. It is impossible. We simply take a lot of old ideas and put them into a sort of mental kaleidoscope. We give them a turn and they make new and curious combinations. We keep on turning and making new combinations indefinitely; but they are the same old pieces of colored glass that have been in use through all the ages.”
“There is no original thought, only original composition of thoughts.”
Drunken Me - circa 1988 or so, probably after reading, and forgotten that I’d read that quote from Mark Twain!
It's a good thing you don't have to light beers, or we'd be out of matches.
Drunken me in my youth. Remember paper match books?

Much older.
Ecclesiastes 1:9
“The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.”
Out of context it sounds like the same thing but in context Ecclesiastes 1:9 has a different meaning than the intent of the Twain quote.
Twain is talking about nothing being new and everything "new" is just something old recycled or reconfigured, not meaningless.
The teacher in Ecclesiastes is elaborating on the idea that everything is meaningless.
I dont see that much difference in the end result, but its not worth arguing over.
Only that Twain is not opining everything is meaningless and bible quotes out of context often lose their meaning or take on meaning that was never there.
What is has been. What will be is no more than a forgotten year striking backward.

It seems you can celebrate any culture but not British (your own white culture).
Harrison Ford trying to explain the G-Spot to a befuddled George Lucas c. 1977.
