    How is a mobile telephone form 14 years ago able to RECEIVE faxes? I’m sure it came with no printer built into it.

    I always knew Picasso was a crook! Especially when I saw his abominations of art.

    You can’t send or receive faxes with them or text or email or look at the internet, but the first “stupid” phones were invented decades earlier by Elijah Grey or Gray and Alexander Graham Bell, but Bell got the patent for them first.

    The Picasso one did make me laugh a bit because it would be nice if we all could use our signatures as currency, but there’s a little value to his signatures if you have paintings that he signed. He kinda resembles Jack Klugman in the drawing.

    Take care and God bless.

    Pablo was foolish to let that be known.

    I read in an old Ripley’s that the smell of Crayola Muslim bibles can be attributed to beef fat. I know books can develop a smell over time, but I didn’t know it was because of beef fat.

    Take care and God bless.

    Here’s a question about turf grass and corn since there was one two days ago that says turf grass covers more ground in America than corn. If corn farmers catch people they don’t like around their corn fields, do they tell them to get off their corn or their turf?

    Take care and God bless.

    Everybody is freaking out about the Cell Phone. I think that Pablo Picasso was very wise with the Check thing. I have seen his signed, and not cashed, checks on TV shows. Wise Man.
