Thanks Scooter; you learn something every day.

And if I recall correctly, Constant Comment is an orange flavored black tea made by Bigelow.

I won't celebrate the death of anyone (well, maybe Trump if it happens :D ), even anyone as asinine as Dobson, but I am certain he is now realizing what a waste he made of his life and talents and the horrible things he spawned. IMHO, this is the essence of what we call hell--not fire and brimstone,...

Maybe you can reduce murders by turning cities into armed camaps and having armed troops patrol them; you also could reduce traffic fatalities by banning driving. But is that really the sort of country you want to live in? If it is, perhaps you should consider changing your nom de plume to something...

The capital of the United States should have the lowest homicide rate in the country, not just for the sake of its residents, but for national pride, if nothing else. And you seriously think turning DC into an armed camp with military patrols enhances national pride? It makes me ashamed of the US, ...

This country is really screwed up in a lot of ways, and if something isn't done soon, we're not going to be leaving them much of anything worth having.

I agree; especially after Jan 20 of this year. Pretty much everything this country stands for is being perverted by our current president.

BP-- Have you paid any attention to the current controversy about public transit in Philly? Can't even figure out how to get kids to public school. I haven't heard too much of it, but what I have heard is that SEPTA (the mass transit organization) is cutting some service, including charter bus servi...

I have a number of friends who live in New York City who don't own cars, and have worked with NewYorkers who never had a drivers license. I am sure other cities are similar. In NYC, many people find cars unnecessary.

If he can't read Highway safety signs, what does that say about California's government? and if he wrecked a bridge with no consequences, what does that say about Arkansas? In any event, I would imagine he could read well enough to read the number 5 and understand "tons"; he did pass a written exam...

Are you saying that even though he passed the driver's tests and was licensed, being an "illegal immigrant" automatically made him a less skilled driver than a US citizen? sure that's exactly what he was saying because every illegal immigrant is the kind of person who made his own rules . You know,...

That's where I heard her before. Thanks Sue.

bon Oh well, I'll enjoy the savings while I'm getting it and put the extra cash toward the road tripping.

Enjoy! Bon voyage!

What’s happening there is what governors all over the country should be doing, but unfortunately, most of them don’t have the guts. They are too afraid of political consequences to do what needs to be done? Needs to be done? Sending in the troops (and not just national guard, regular military) to s...

I've been avoiding the spyware on principle (I don't really think I have much in my driving to worry about, but I just don't like being tracked, even if it will save me some money), but I imagine I may have to acquiesce at some point in the future when abstaining ceases to become an option. It's kin...

We can only hope.

BSG--not to pour any rain on your parade, and being an attorney I imagine you have done this (especially since you say the coverage hasn't changed), but be sure to carefully go through you policy in detail and see if they have changed/downgraded any coverage. It has been a while, but in the past whe...

Why is it that Southerners always have to be the bad guys in American literature? I don't know, Rhett Butler was a charming scoundrel and a pretty good (if pragmatic) guy. And Atticus Finch is probably one of the best good guys in more modern literature (and even in the more recent followup, he was...

The public cares a whole lot more about getting fucked up the ass by the billionaire class You really believe that? I think much of the public will willingly bend over for it if they think they can get a few scraps. I think there are amny who think the rich are special people who have special right...

And of course you had to run in and check on them periodically< :lol: Boy scouts taught me to think several moves ahead. :lol: ETA: I believe I mentioned this before, but many years ago I saw a play called "Good" on Broadway that resonates with how things are now. It was about a college professor in...

Pointless? Sure, but i would like to see more: Perhaps we should all be allowed to vote in any election held in D.C. Lib--please explain why, and why those in DC shouldn't have the same rights to elect a local government as in any other town or city. Or is it an "imperial capital" that permits us to...
