Trust me, that really happened.
Hi again,

I am very glad you said "Trust me" because I always trust people who say that. If they say "trust me" you know for sure you can trust them :)

Ok so seriously how do you know for sure it really happened ? You know how reliable the internet is :)

That does not make any sense. I stated something perfectly logical and reasonable, and thought that your estimation was also reasonable.

Maybe I am just too real :)
The point of my sarcastic joke, my friend, was to show you that while skepticism is a healthy attitude, one must also be cautious in its overuse or otherwise there's the very real possibility of getting one's reasoning stuck and never moving forward.

As is the case with the new pastime of Qanon. Discrediting all news is intended to trap the unwary into believing only what the liars want people to believe. Theres plenty of trustworthy and verifiable news available, unfortunately if that news threatens a person's fragile make believe world then it must be attacked, like the news that modern Zionist ideology is rooted in racial superiority and a divine right to territory (beliefs once also held by the Third Reich).

There are lots of archival records from the British government (who once administered Palestine) proving this, proving that the ideology predates World War 2, plenty of evidence, easy to get these days, but too uncomfortable for some.

Here, this is a ten year old news report in the Israeli newspaper Harretz, there's plenty more too for those truly interested.

IMO The anti-semitism is strong in this one. Plenty of evidence, easy to get these days, but too uncomfortable for some.

Police responded to alarm around time of $30 million L.A. heist, but thieves were undetected
Despite the officers’ presence at the property in the early hours of Easter Sunday — including around the time it is believed the sophisticated burglary was carried out — the criminals remained undetected, according to three law enforcement officials familiar with the investigation of the incident.

During at least one of the responses by a patrol car, GardaWorld was alerted, according to the officials, but the Montreal-based security services company did not register the intrusion.
These guys were good, not just lucky.

Hello again and thank you for the reply.

I am just not sure why you would want to 'show' me anything when I was sort of agreeing with you and already thought it was reasonable.
This remines me "a little" of a skit in Family Guy:
Joe: "Quagmire, do not get married".
Quagmire: "I am not getting married".
Joe: "Good, don't".
Quagmire: "I am already not getting married".
Joe: "Good, don't".
Quagmire: "Joe, you know you telling me not to get married has absolutely no effect on me because I am already doing what you are telling me to do".
Joe: "Good, don't".
:)

That's not exactly the same thing I know but maybe that illustrates the point a little.

I had a bad day today also. I drove miles up the mountain to do my civic duty and bring my old Li-ion cells to the hazardous waste drop off only to find that there was a big baseball game going on that had 100 cars backed up on the only access road to the waste drop off. I could not get in so had to turn around and come back home.
The problem is they only have these 'days' about once every three months, so I can't go again for another three months.
People won't put up with that they will throw them in the regular garbage, which defeats the purpose of having that kind of recycling program.
It's just a stupid place to visit anyway the whole area up there has other problems I won't get into right now.

Remember that land that mom bought in the desert 30 years ago?

I've driven thru Pahrump a few times, hot as hell in summer, cold and windy as hell in winter.

The radio legend was there.
