You DO know that today is only 3-10-2018, right?  Care to share?

incapable of understanding, I see now. Did I say the date was the 12th, or did someone else? Forget it, hose head.

I tried to find the article
Mar 11, 2018 10:06AM PDT

you referred to with the DATE you referred to.........

Evidently you STILL don't want to share........ok.

Reread your original post...
Mar 11, 2018 10:04AM PDT

You posted on March 9, and referred to an article dated 3-12, so YES, you DID.......

I did not refer to "an article" with that date.
Mar 11, 2018 2:37PM PDT

Knee-jerk assumptions were made by the named recipient, not at all related to my OP or the article, which he still hasn't read.
Nor you. I asked what you found in The New Yorker of 3/10/2018, a date that seems to give you more pleasure than 3/12/2018. What did you find?
Ease off that trigger, flip the safety, drive over to the library in the next holler and read.

You did ask me to share.

Note the cover date. P. 31 top left is a casual [the magazine's term] about curling in America.
Nothing to do with JWs, psychic or otherwise.
Many weeklies have cover dates different from their appearance. As I said, I didn't cite an "article" of 3/12, but the issue. And, I didn't 'say' 3/12, the magazine did, on its cover; I was reading a friend's subscription copy at the time.

Paywall; you get three stories. Funny one on 'old men throwing rocks'.
Enjoy, hose head.

Is it hose head or hosehead?

BUT WAIT!!!

Y'all will love this. When I replied to the 'psychic JW post, I thought I was replying to JP Bill, the name I thought I saw as the respondent; it was just my OP. The respondent was Toni, as I should have known anyway from the knee-jerk hatred of my religion. That's why the "hose head" remark. Poor Bill, he'll never forgive me.
Hey, I'm old! Gimme a break! Happy

"I’m at the Paralympics, what could be better?" from a non-medal [not losing] athlete.
Did you read The New Yorker? 'I found a sport where they throw rocks on ice!'
