Your potential is *definitely* *NOT* unlimited.
You should just be happy reaching the point of mediocrity.
Because your life is pointless and meaningless and pathetic.
The only people who respond to that moronic "unlimited potential" blathering gibberish are *slackers*.
And it never motivates them to become anything other than a pathetic fat-ass slob polluter.

Hidden Figures Way: Street in front of NASA headquarters renamed for pioneers

Hidden Figures Way: Street in front of NASA headquarters renamed for pioneers
The street outside of NASA's D.C. headquarters has been renamed "Hidden Figures Way" to honor African American women who overcame adversity.
NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine, left, U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, D.C. Council Chairman Phil Mendelson, and Margot Lee Shetterly, author of the book "Hidden Figures," unveil the "Hidden Figures Way" street sign at a dedication ceremony, Wednesday, June 12, 2019, at NASA headquarters in Washington, D.C. The designation honors Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan, Mary Jackson and all women who have dedicated their lives to contributing to the space program of the United States.
First a book, then a movie, and now NASA’s “Hidden Figures” are being honored with a street outside the government organization’s D.C. headquarters.
The 300 block of E Street SW on Wednesday was officially renamed “Hidden Figures Way” to honor women who, in the words of NASA's current administrator, “at the time were not celebrated.”
“Hidden Figures” is a 2016 novel written by Margot Lee Shetterly that was adapted into an Oscar-nominated film. Both focus on the lives of three African American women – Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan and Mary Jackson – who overcame racial and gender discrimination and “were essential to the success of early spaceflight.”

The sign for the street was unveiled in a ceremony at 3rd and E streets SW.
U.S. Sens. Ted Cruz, Ed Markey, John Thune and Bill Nelson in August introduced a bill to rename the street. The D.C. Council introduced a bill in September to rename the street and it was signed in January. Cruz was present for the unveiling, along with NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine, Shetterly and D.C. Council Chairman Phil Mendelson.
“Naming this street Hidden Figures Way serves to remind us, and everyone who walks here, who comes to this building, of the standard that was set by these women, with their commitment to science and their embodiment of the values of equality, justice and humanity,” Shetterly said during the ceremony.
“But, let it also remind us of the Hidden Figures way, which is to open our eyes to contribution of the people around us so that their names, too, are the ones that we remember at the end of the story.”
Members of Johnson, Jackson and Vaughan’s families also were present for Wednesday's ceremony.
“A street sign is a piece of metal, that’s under the wind, sun, rain, snow. But a street sign’s a lot more than that,” Cruz said.
“Because for years, and then decades, and then centuries, when little girls and little boys come to see NASA, they’re going to look up and see that sign, and they’re going to say ‘Hidden Figures? What’s that? What does that mean?’ And that, in turn, is going to prompt a story – a story about the unlimited human potential of all of us.”

REBOOT
So, sure. All you dullard dim-wits out there AT THIS MOMENT. All you can do is to resent me. You resent me like you resent your Boss.
That's all you can do.
This morning I am thinking again about my theory of why this is all happening the way it is.
You're too much of a dim-wit to see the big picture but I do see enough of it to understand more than before.
There's no profit motive to it in the long run.
That tells me the strategy is something about the future.
That's because of the disparate sources I discover EVERY DAMN TIME I READ A BOOK AND WATCH A TELEVISION PROGRAM.
There a long-term goal to it all.

LAKANTA: This is the Habak, the focal point of our lives. Strangers are not welcome here.
WESLEY: When I asked to come here, you said it would be
LAKANTA: You're not a stranger. I told you, I've seen you here before.
WESLEY: What are those figures?
LAKANTA: They are Mansara. Dolls that represent the different spirits that come to this place.
WESLEY: This one looks like a Klingon.
LAKANTA: Yes. Our culture is rooted in the past, but it's not limited to the past.
(He scatters sand around the fire)
LAKANTA: The spirits of the Klingon, the Vulcan, the Ferengi come to us just as the bear and the coyote and the parrot. There's no difference.
WESLEY: What should I do?
LAKANTA: Start the fire. Then sit and wait.
WESLEY: What am I waiting for?
LAKANTA: This is your journey, Wesley. I can open the door, but only you can go through it.
