02/06/2024 HOW OLD ARE YOU?   1 comment

How old are you? It’s a valid question that most people ask about a stranger when discussing them with a third-party, “He’s about 20 years old.”. People who are in their 20’s think people in their 30’s are old while people in their 30’s think people in their 50’s are old. It’s all relative and silly but we do it all the time without really thinking about it. In my case I think anyone younger than 60 is just a stupid kid and that should show you how really stupid it is to judge a person by their age. Today’s post is going to list some interesting accomplishments by the age of the person doing them. Using age as way to judge someone is just ridiculous as these examples will show you.

At the Age of 1

Mary, of the House of Stewart, became Queen of Scotland.

Brooke Shields was selected as the Ivory Snow baby.

At the Age of 2

Judy Garland launches her stage career.

Isabella II ascends to the Spanish throne.

At the Age of 3

Albert Einstein speaks for the first time.

Alice Liddell first meets Charles Dodgson (pen name of Lewis Carol) who later used her as inspiration to write Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.

At the Age of 4

Malcolm Little (who later changed his name to Malcolm X) watches as his family’s home was burned to the ground by members of the Ku Klux Klan.

Bob Hope emigrates from England to the United States

At the Age of 5

Devora Wilson, Mountain climber, scales a 4000-foot peak.

Christopher Robin Milne hears the first “Winnie the Pooh” story, with himself as the main character, made up by his father, A. A.

At the Age of 6

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart gives keyboard concerts across Europe.

Shirley Temple receives an honorary Oscar for her contribution to film.

Ron Howard stars as Opie in TV’s, The Andy Griffith Show.

At the Age of 7

Helen Keller, blind and deaf, master’s a vocabulary of 625 words.

Carol Brown, who travels more than an hour daily to attend a distantschool because as a black she is denied admission to the local all-white school, motivates her father to file a lawsuit, resulting in the landmark Brown V. Board of Education Supreme Court decision which finds public-schoolsegregation to be unconstitutional.

If you didn’t already know this, limericks in their own way are historical documents. In the past I reprinted a selection of World War II era limericks but how could I possibly forget the interesting limericks created by some of our famous cowboy historians. I knew I would find some bawdy limericks about our western heritage as written by bored saloon patrons or from a few bored bar maidens, or even a select few university scholars like Ray Allen Billington (Limericks, Historical and Hysterical). Try these on for size.

While Sue lay supine ‘neath a willow,

She was screwed by a large armadillo,

And remarked to the same,

As both of them came,

That the next time he might bring a pillow. 

🐎🐎🐎

When a lady returned from Big Moose,

Her husband exclaimed, “What the deuce,

I’m quite reconciled

To the call of the wild,

But where did you get the papoose?”

🐴🐴🐴

An Indian, who claims we can trust her,

Insists she was raped by George Custer.

Despite what he planned,

His three-inch last stand,

Was all Colonel Custer could muster.

🤠🤠🤠

Cowboys at the end of the Drive

Were so horny they scarce could survive.

So, the whores of Dodge City

Out of greed (not for pity)

Worked double shifts: from nine til five.

WHO DOESN’T LOVE HISTORY?

Have you ever been reading a book and all of a sudden WHAM, something grabs your attention. That happened to me last night at midnight as I was reading book five of the Dune series. I read this paragraph, and it just encapsulated how I feel about the current state of the country after years of Obama and Bidens leadership. I’ll also throw in the idiot WOKE generation as well since they’re just another arm of the liberal establishment trying desperately to turn the USA into a sad copy of any number of European countries verging on socialism. Here it is . . .

Most civilization is based on cowardice. It’s so easy to civilize by teaching cowardice. You water down the standards which would lead to bravery, you restrain the will. You regulate the appetites; you fence in the horizons. You make a law for every moment. You deny the existence of chaos. You teach even the children to breathe slowly. You tame.”

Frank Herbert
