    Today

    On February 14, 1899, The U.S. Congress approved voting machines for use in federal elections.

    And, now they can be rigged with the help of:

    1946 - ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer) was unveiled in 1946. The device, which was built at the University of Pennsylvania, was the world's first general purpose electronic computer.

    Also, the U.S. Department of Commerce and Labor was established in 1903.

    QUITE A DAY FOR OUR ELECTIONS, HUH?

    Yes, nine years. And we'll probably be there longer.

    I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I intended to be.

    Every time I see Afghanistan on the news I'm struck by what a godforsaken looking place it is. Desolate. It must have strategic importance, because it sure doesn't look like the garden spot of Earth.
    Is it the nice central location?
    Do they have oil?
    Is it where the main portal to Hell opens up?

    You mean what is that. Some call Pluto a planet, others call it a planetoid. I call it just another doomed rock.

    But, was the question about Paris? You don't know Paris, axl? You must lead a normal life, if Paris is unknown to you. The post was for Celeb followers.

    That paris is a nobody, you should not know who she is. If you do, you should try and forget, preferably by doing some heavy philosophical studies or similar.

    Pluto on the other hand is a goofy lovable dog, right?
