I keep the dials for our gas stove in a bowl beside it for that very reason. You are supposed to have to push the dials in to turn them but that has apparently worn out over 16 years.

Greene also attempted to slander activist Maulana Karenga, who created the seven-day holiday in 1966. Karenga, who was convicted of felonious assault and false imprisonment in 1971, has insisted he was targeted because of his work in Black nationalist politics.

According to Newsweek, Karenga currently serves as chair of the Africana Studies Department at California State University, Long Beach.

A chair

Well, la-di-da

Shouldn't that be AfricanX Studies? Transphobic, binary, cisnormatizing h8r....

Wow... loved the analysis. lucky indeed.

Angels Envy is not worth the name. But I'm glad he's helping with the relief efforts.

Xray came back negative and it's an ankle. probably won't affect his NFL prospects. Or so they say.

Altmeyer sure did a good job considering he's a true freshman - 19 years old. His last big game was in high school.

I suspect there is a lot more money to be made in Israel.

Drugs should only be apportioned by race, if a much higher efficacy can be established for a particular drug for a particular race.

Like someone who stole something is actually going to tell the IRS that.

@taiwan_girl understands irony.

I miss Oreo, my old border collie....

Where's the father?

Why can't she afford rent?

Why is she working multiple PT retail jobs, the lowest paid jobs (along with fast food) on the job chain?

There are reasons people fail, many of them government induced.

When I first started traveling, I have a "vaccination card" that I had to carry to be allowed into various countries. Has not been required for a super long time, but showing proof to have gotten certain shots is not new at all.

Somebody here, maybe Jolly posted a video where they had a "anti-police" activist be put in various "staged" scenarios that police see all the time. He came out of the exercise with a new perspective and appreciation of the work that police do.
