Welcome back. I often think the Golden Era of Taobums is behind us, but reading about bears and Egyptian magic, I´m not sure if things have changed at all.

I often think the Golden Era of Taobums is behind us, but reading about bears and Egptian magic, I´m not sure if things have changed at all. If only we could find a panel of scientists and a video camera to film those bears DOING magic. Oh, and the bears will need to be naked to make sure they aren't faking anything. Although if memory serves we would also need to spend the next 10 pages of comments discussing which scientists, and how naked, which seems excessive. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

old3bob Posted October 2 agreed, and I wonder if Apech has done anything for his hairless/furless cousin besides turning up the furnace during cold winter days? (or sun block for sunny summer days) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or envy? -- those green/grey alien thingies that messed up their own genetics and lost their hair and a few other things couldn't bear looking at shiny-furred happy people? And what about not having to first kill other furry animals for their fur to stay warm and later not paying for the heaters in winter? They couldn't stand it... ) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am still here arguing with some old timers. Arguing with the same old things. I hope I'll never win.
