I didn't know what rooting a phone meant until you posted this...I thought it had something to do with pigs........I was wrong.... But i kinda sorta did learn a little bit about what rooting a phone means and does and the advantages.... The articles all said learn as much as you can before you start...or take the phone to someone who does that sort of stuff and let them do the rooting..... I managed to change the operating system in my old phone from Gingerbread to Ice Cream Sandwich.........Even a moron like me figured out how to do it after 3 or 4 tries.....Made all the difference in the world in the operation of the phone... Good luck BB........... Happy and Safe Rooting

I didn't read the original question and didn't realize that one of the coins landed heads...Remember I flunked... Maybe not reading was one of the reasons.............. Knowing that would automatically dismiss TT as an option.....I am indeed a moron.......... However, I do think it matters which coin landed heads.............. If the second coin landed heads then that opens the feasibility of three possibilities...HH, TH, HT.... In that scenario TH and HT are not the same....Therefore it clearly does depend on how we interpret the question.... So I say 33% probability the other coin - either first or second flipped coin - will be a head......... I think I flunked again.................. Except.............. From a ladyboy forum perspective the answer should always be HT - head and then tail............ But perhaps on occasion TH - tail and then head........ Either way it always depends on how much coin is in your pocket..............

I vote for TC's answer.............. I think his answer is spot on........... Hope I didn't doom you TC.......... I flunked both parametric and non-parametric statistics courses....... At least I was consistent........

Can We Auto-Correct Humanity?

Mine is funnier and faggier.....

You are missing one of the great novels of our time brother Watanabe..........A Pulitzer Prize winning novel... To Kill A Mockingbird was named by the or a British association of novelists as the one novel that everyone should read.... It is a slice of life in a small southern Alabama town during the great depression...It is also a brilliant coming of age tale...A tale of bigots and their bigotry and their undoing....A tale of false impressions and heroes...And so very much more......And of course it is a tale of the mockingbirds in their lives........And maybe in ours........ Truman Capote even makes an appearance under a fictive name of course...Truman and Harper Lee grew up together and were inseparable friends until Truman passed....She held his hand during much of his writing of In Cold Blood.......She had already published To Kill A Mockingbird...... The film is equally impressive as the novel and follows the novel closely....Gregory Peck who played Atticus Finch won an Oscar for his performance...Harper Lee was so impressed by Peck's ability to become Atticus that she gave him her father's pocket watch as a prop and a gift...The young girl who played Scout and who remained close to Gregory called him Atticus until his death...To her he was Atticus...And the black actor Brock Peters who played Tom Robinson gave the eulogy at Gregory's funeral......They had become very close friends..... To be honest I ain't too exicted to revisit that little Albama town now...I understand that Ms Lee has killed off the son Jem Finch and has turned Atticus into a card carrying bigot...I don't think I could abide by that in my old age...Knowing that Gregory truly was Atticus and Atticus truly was Gregory.............. I do highly recommend To Kill A Mockingbird as a novel and as a film......

Kelly.........She has a flat chest, 5 inches of joy and blue eyes..... Had a little cat once named Kelly...She was a little feisty thing...... Without any fear she took on people and dogs and cats of all sizes............ I called her, to my daughter's delight, SillyKellyJellyBelly........... Well, my daughter liked it anyway................. But I would truly enjoy making this Kelly purr............ Time to practice my Portuguese........... Para sugar dela bonita vara.............

Ken "The Snake" Stabler, who starred at Alabama before becoming a Super Bowl-winning quarterback with the Raiders, has died. He was 69. I have always disliked the Raiders.... But it was hard to dislike Kenny Stabler.... There well never been another quite like him....... Y'all turn down a glass for Kenny tonight.......

Works fine from beautiful downtown Arizona..........

I took those van trips to the border too many times......... Each trip more frightening than the last........ In Bangkok you can ride a big bus to the border for like money...... I did feel a lot safer lumbering along in a big bus while being passed left and right by the underpowered Toyota vans...... In this video that van driver is very very lucky...It truly ain't a fair contest between a 4,000 pound tin Toyota van and an 80,000 pound semi........

I just finished for the 3rd or 4th or 5th reading...My memory ain't what I thought or hoped it once was.......... B Is for Beer by Tom Robbins...... Also titled as a Children's Book for Grown-ups or A Grown-up Book for Children...Depending on whether you are right eyed or left eyed... A short 125 page very fun and very entertaining read........... And educational if you care to learn how beer is made and maybe the ultimate meaning of a tall, cold brew....... You must agree that the meaning is everything when it comes to beer...... But then again maybe you just like reading the words of the quirky, maverick and magical Tom Robbins.......

So many years and so may cheap Thai DVDs...... I had an entire drawer filled with DVDs from Thailand that wouldn't play in my DVD players or played so poorly that it was painful to watch them........ I finally went through them all the other day and sent them off to DVD heaven....Actually I just leave them on my community mail box for others to either enjoy to find their own frustration....They will all play on a computer....I just can't watch a film on a computer.... So slowly I have been replacing those few that I want to watch once again............... Today I bought a copy of Good Will Hunting at Target for $4.......... I truly forgot how great a story it is........... Not a perfect ending......................... But just maybe the ending is the perfect beginning......... And ain't that what we spend out lives longing for............ I feel so very sorry for those who are unable to find that joy in life or in a simple film........................ Maybe despite it all I am lucky............

And today Dustin kinda sorta agrees and doesn't agree with me... But clearly agrees with Route67 Who woulda thought ........ The Hollywood Reporter July 6, 2015 Dustin Hoffman: Cinema Is "Worst" it Has Been in 50 Years By Alex Ritman Two-time Oscar winner Dustin Hoffman has criticized the current state of cinema, saying it's at its lowest point in the half a century that he has been working. "I think right now, television is the best that's it ever been, and I think it's the worst that film has ever been - in the 50 years that I've been doing it, it's the worst," he said in an interview with U.K. newspaper The Independent. Hoffman's cinematic issues appear to stem from the increasing financial demands on directors to complete their films more quickly, pressures he says weren't there when he first started out in the industry. "It's hard to believe you can do good work for the little amount of money these days," he said. "We did The Graduate and that film still sustains. It had a wonderful script that they spent three years on, and an exceptional director with an exceptional cast and crew, but it was a small movie, four walls and actors, and yet it was 100 days of shooting." Having made his directorial debut in 2012 with Quartet, the British comedy-drama starring Maggie Smith and Billy Connelly, Hoffman added that he hadn't yet found another project to sink his teeth into. "I'm looking at everything that comes to me, I'm not getting much as far as directing is concerned," he said. "I don't think that has anything to do with whether you are good or not, it's just about whether your films make money or not."

Neither.............

The Bard also wrote, "...there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so." Was Willy telling us that everything is neutral and the folly of good or bad is created in our minds... No he was telling us what Thomas Gray would tell us again more than a century later, "Where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise." And when Willy wrote, "The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers," and had the moron Dick utter the line, was he damning lawyers...No, just the opposite...He was defending lawyers as the keepers of the laws...The laws that stand in the way of chaos..... That is not to say that today he would defend Hollywood marketing folks........... I have said it before and will likey say it again...Hollywood and the film industry is not in the business of making art...That it does on occasion is both a mystery and a miracle... Hollywood is in the business of making money...It always has been...Why that comes as a shock to folks I not know.... And that is not a "good or bad" or "kill are the marketing executives" thing...It is just "the way it is" thing........... Sometimes maybe we just have to accept the way it is..... Is art (in this instance films) a mirror of society???? Or does art/films shape society??? Who knows... What we do know is that things change...Everything is constantly changing...The world and everything in it is dynamic...We have to look inside ourselves to find those truths that remain constant...And it is only in those truths that the past lives on.... ...................................................... As an off topic aside...There is a marvelous little piece written by Yank anthropologist Laura Bohannan years ago titled Shakespeare In The Bush...Required reading for all young budding anthro students in the States way back when.....It teaches us Yanks what we know and most importantly, what we don't know about the Bard's Hamlet..... Now of course it can be found online... Give it a read......It is a short read and it is an entertaining read.........And perhaps it holds some truths even about today............ http://www.naturalhistorymag.com/picks-from-the-past/12476/shakespeare-in-the-bush

Kudos to Bill... Maybe Miss Saigon even dropped by his room and gave him a blow job as an award....After all he goes to sleep and wakes up next to Hillary...And that's damn scary..... His action lifted a corner of the burden but for many the burden remains...And it likely will remain until the last of the Vietnam era Yanks take their last breaths... It makes us sad...Not because we lost...But because we all know now and many knew then, that we didn't belong in Vietnam...It was never our war............ How many good people died and suffered and still suffer because of what our politicians forced our young men and women to do...... For many, the burden truly remains and no one has the cure.........

You have been a busy young man Sean....Good for you..........

Forever....I even walk with a lisp..............

A Very Very Happy Happy Birthday to Canada and to Sam and Rxpharm and all other Canadians here and everywhere........... Your country is nearly as old as me........................

The moron politicians who were obviously just posturing for votes are apparently giving up the fight...... GRETNA, La. — The country’s last major pockets of resistance to same-sex marriage were rapidly shrinking on Monday as officials in states across the South, citing the rule of law, softened their defiance and began offering marriage licenses to gay and lesbian couples. Here in a suburb of New Orleans, Alesia LeBoeuf’s hands were shaking moments after she and her partner, Celeste Autin, became the first same-sex couple to receive a marriage license in Louisiana. “I’m just speechless,” Ms. LeBoeuf said. “I never thought I’d see the day.” Louisiana was the last holdout, the only state where no same-sex licenses were issued on Friday after the Supreme Court ruled that gay men and lesbians had a constitutional right to marry. Over the weekend, Gov. Bobby Jindal, as he condemned the Supreme Court decision, said that Louisiana would comply when instructed to by a federal appellate court. Licensing offices across the state said they were waiting for orders. But Jon Gegenheimer, the clerk of Jefferson Parish, just outside New Orleans, decided to issue licenses on Monday morning. First in line were Ms. Autin, 53, and Ms. LeBoeuf, 54, sweethearts since high school and both employees of the clerk’s office. By the afternoon, at least nine parishes, including Orleans, East Baton Rouge, Caddo, St. Charles and St. James, had also begun issuing licenses to same-sex couples, according to Forum for Equality, a marriage-rights group that had sent a letter to parish clerks on Sunday warning that they could be liable for violating couples’ civil rights if they refused to provide licenses. “The dominoes are falling,” said the group’s executive director, SarahJane E. Brady. Marriages in Mississippi, which had been temporarily halted on Friday by an order from Attorney General Jim Hood, resumed in some cities on Monday after Mr. Hood clarified his statement and gave county clerks the right to make their own decisions. Calling the Supreme Court opinion “the law of the land,” Mr. Hood’s statement said, “If a clerk has issued or decides to issue a marriage license to a same-sex couple, there will be no adverse action taken by the attorney general.” He also warned that “a clerk who refuses to issue a marriage license to a same-sex couple could be sued by the denied couple and may face liability.” In Jackson, the Hinds County circuit clerk, Barbara Dunn, alerted marriage-equality supporters who had been waiting in the courthouse. The first licenses were issued, and four weddings took place by lunch. By late Monday afternoon, at least 45 counties in Mississippi were providing marriage licenses to same sex-couples, according to the Campaign for Southern Equality, a gay-rights group.

Not only the SCOTUS but New York gets in on the action as well....... NEW YORK — The Stonewall Inn, the Greenwich Village bar where resistance to a police raid sparked the modern gay rights movement, was made a city landmark Tuesday, the first time a site has been named primarily because of its significance to the LGBT history. "New York City's greatness lies in its inclusivity and diversity," Meenakshi Srinivasan, chairwoman of the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission, said before the unanimous vote. "The events at Stonewall were a turning point in the LGBT rights movement and in the history of our nation." Patrons fought back against a police raid on the Stonewall Inn on June 28, 1969, and the street protests that followed for several days are credited with galvanizing gay activism in New York and globally. The rebellion is commemorated with annual gay pride parades in hundreds of cities. http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/stonewall-inn-gets-landmark-status-a-nod-to-lgbt-history/ar-AAc16Vr#image=5

It's a barbaric practice......... And I doubt if it ever was a successful treatment for any disease........ But surely being gay is not a disease........ And it could be that there are equal numbers of ladyboys in Cambodia as in other Southeast Asian countries.... Maybe they are simply silent ladyboys......

The Restaurant Bar at the End of the Universe........... There had to have been some ladyboys there.............

The TV thread is here... http://www.ladyboyreview.com/forum/index.php?/topic/4336-favorite-drama-tv-series/page-12 But who gives a shit....These days there is so much cross-over with actors and directors and screenwriters...and and and.... I don't watch much modern day TV productions these days...In fact I don't watch any...But I did just watch a great old film Sleuth with Michael and Lawrence...There is a remake that it pretty good too with Michael and Judd.......We're all on a first name basis....... My favorite TV show and the only one I have DVD copies of except for like Shogun and Roots and Lonesome Dove...mini series... was Northern Exposure...I couldn't tell you exactly why..But maybe cause I was raised in a little town much like the fictive local of the TV series...Where everyone knew everyone......I do miss that...And perhaps I identify with some of the kooky folks...We had our share in my little town... I watched the famous cow fling episode the other night......Chris has his heart set on flinging a cow in some giant catapult contraption of his making...Only to have Ed tell him that it has already been done by Monty Python... Chris is devastated but finally comes to realize that it is not what you fling but "the fling" itself that is important.... You gotta love this stuff... Watching this episode always reminds me of the classic WKRP Thanksgiving day drop..................And that's another good memory.......

I usually use Kayak or Cheapair or Monondo....for inexpensive tickets but I will give this site a try.... Sometimes the least expensive is to go directly to the airline............... Looking for tickets for late October or early November....... Right now they are super cheap...On Kayak I found tickets from Phoenix to Bangkok for less than $900 flying on JAL.....That is a hard to beat price...... I will give them a try and let you know............
