You are so right anon. I'm a 69 years old senile old guy who's been trying to make sense of what the heck is going on this Earth since the beginning of time. So since you are so knowledgeable, please inlight me instead of telling me I'm senile. Red pill me then. I didn't see any drops from you helping clear things out to a fellow anon.

 

And Theosophy is not one of my reseach goals. I have very specific goals I'm trying to reach. I know one thing you seem not to know anon = LIFE IS A LESSON YOU LEARN IT WHEN IT"S THROUGH. Meaning you never stop learning in life. And you better go check out the connection between Hitler and Edward VIII. See where it leads you.

If anons check out Meredith's twitter account, you will see she is wishing HIV Charlie Sheen a Happy birthday and she co-stared with Denise Richards.

 

We all know Sarah Silverman.

 

I was startled by what is on Alice Oswalt's arm. What the heck is that anons?

 

And at last: https://www.elitedaily.com/news/politics/patton-oswalts-daughters-letter-to-trump/1815019

 

"Shakespeare once wrote, "Brevity is the soul of wit," and a little girl named Alice seems to have mastered that concept (probably better than most adults, in fact).

 

 

 

On March 5, comedian Patton Oswalt, Alice's father, shared an image of his daughter holding a postcard she wrote to President Donald Trump.

 

The postcard has a simple, yet profound message for the president: "Calm down."

 

This might be the most accurate and relevant use of emojis in history.

 

Well played, Alice.

 

Someone accused Oswalt of brainwashing his daughter, but the comedian said she made the postcard while playing with friends"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miami_Biltmore_Hotel

 

"The Miami Biltmore Hotel is a luxury hotel in Coral Gables, Florida, United States. It was designed by Schultze and Weaver and was built in 1926 by John McEntee Bowman and George Merrick as part of the Biltmore hotel chain. When completed it became the tallest building in Florida at 315 feet (96 m)[3] holding the record until 1928 when the Dade County Courthouse was built. At one time the pool was the largest pool in the world and among the many attractions was swimming instructor (and later Tarzan actor) Johnny Weissmuller.[4] It served as a hospital during World War II and as a VA Hospital and campus of the University of Miami medical school until 1968. Abandoned for many years it became a hotel again in 1987.

 

It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1996."

 

"In 1925 land developer George E. Merrick joined forces with Biltmore hotel magnate John McEntee Bowman at the height of the Florida land boom to build "a great hotel…which would not only serve as a hostelry to the crowds which were thronging to Coral Gables but also would serve as a center of sports and fashion." In January 1926, ten months and $10 million later, the hotel debuted with a magnificent inaugural that brought people down from northern cities on trains marked "Miami Biltmore Specials."[citation needed]

 

Vistors included, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Ginger Rogers, Judy Garland, Bing Crosby, Al Capone and assorted Roosevelts and Vanderbilts as frequent guests. Franklin D. Roosevelt had a temporary White House office set up at the Hotel for when he vacationed on his fishing trips from Miami. There were many gala balls, aquatic shows by the grand pool and weddings were de rigueur as were world class golf tournaments.[citation needed]

 

Just months after the hotel opened, on September 18, the 1926 Miami Hurricane struck. While the hotel was undamaged, and actually provided shelter for over 2000 survivors, the disaster signaled the end of the Florida land boom.[5]

 

Merrick's Coral Gables company declared bankruptcy on April 13, 1929, and Merrick's stake in the hotel was bought out by his partner, John McEntee Bowman in November 1929 for $2,100,000.[5] Bowman resold the hotel in September 1931 to millionaire Henry Latham Doherty. The hotel made it through the early 1930s by hosting aquatic galas.[citation needed] As many as three thousand would come out on a Sunday afternoon to watch the synchronized swimmers, bathing beauties and alligator wrestling. Johnny Weissmuller, before he became known as the actor that played Tarzan, broke a world record at the pool"
