BOOM! Beat the Doubting Thomas's to the punch. ;-)
But we only have 10 11 or 12 years left right? 500 years? These guys must be climate deniers!
Theres just so much we can learn from nematodes.
Theyre getting ready to launch a spaceship to Mars.
With my luck, this will hit the market for only $20 a month in 2045.
When I’m in my late 80’s.
Hell, I’m not sure I’d be interested in it if it was for sale at that price now.
My life span will be eternal because of Jesus. Who wants to keep living in a failing mortal body?
I didn’t read the article but . . the secret is beer, right?

I figure I only have to make it until about 135 to get back what Ive paid into social security
And I bet every single one of those pathways is far far away from any abortion facility.
Hey, with a little luck, they get this stuff figured out in another 15-20 years. (I figure I am good for another 30, with a little luck.)
