If I become President, how long do I have to wait before I can ask what’s really in Area 51.

The alien thing is just a red herring. There’s nothing at Area 51 but an urn containing Paul’s ashes from when he died.

^ Speaking of US Presidential Elections, I’m working on my campaign for 2036.

2036, eh? By then, I’ll be 73. Add free prescription drugs for all over 70 to your list of campaign promises and I will vote for you – Hell, I’ll even adopt you to help you get started. I do like the idea of free alcohol. With that, you probably should widen the pavements for ease of staggering home from the pub.

Lovely stuff, I’m packing the bags. 

My free-prescription drugs will be for anyone over the age of 65 and will be means-tested, anyone who has a pension/earns under $60,000 gets it for free.

$60,000-$100,000 earners get medication for half-price.

Everyone else has to pay for it, unless there are special cases which shall be reviewed i.e. expensive medication/treatments costing in the $10,000s or $100,000s.

I will legalise marijuana in all states so long as there is a good amount of tax revenue to be gained from it and smoking is not done outside in public spaces i.e. parks/beaches or in public buildings.

I will also cut down a bit on the military/defense budget so I can help pump money into education and health, the two most important areas of any country’s economy, in my opinion.

 

The alien thing is just a red herring. There’s nothing at Area 51 but an urn containing Paul’s ashes from when he died.

It all makes sense now!

Yep – Area 50 is where Sophie Tucker was laid to rest earlier that year.

You get your presidential briefing as soon as your sworn in.

If no one is on the forum how do we know it remains where it is?

Does it take a squifty break?

 

If nobody knew would you tell them?

It has a fancy name but when you look at a object then look away you know it’s still their.

A great question – which I won’t answer here as the genie would just be widening the area of its rampage.

I know. You noticed I didn’t list any of my genies. a-hard-days-night-george-4

I put the question out there more for each of us to have something to think about than to respond to…but if someone is brave enough to list one or more, I’m sure we would all gawk.

No, you seem to be very confused; Ringo is the only acceptable answer to the query!!

@O Boogie, where did you get your first few avatars? Any particular story behind them? Just wondering…

The one I have? :O

It’s one of John & Paul – no story, they just look happy in that, so I put it up.

If someone exist who was the exact opposite of you, what would their personality be like?

Nay, I meant your first two or three avatars, when you first joined. (By the by, I like your current one the best.)

Lots of people exist like that – they seem to spend a lot of their time beheading people in hot sandy countries.
