        The Women’s Christian Temperance Union, to which we owe the failed experiment of prohibition, still exists. It claimed 5k members in 2012, down from 350k a century earlier.

        On the website it tells you how you join. You print out the temperance pledge, and mail it to Evanston IL along with $20.

        Only non-witches get due process.

          @jon-nyc Evanston, baby!

          It was a source of never-ending mockery when I went to college there.

          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

              I have learned that Madeleine Albright wrote a book with a mildly interesting title: Hell And Other Destinations.

                  From the preface of the book Information Wars by Richard Stengel: "In 2010, Eric Schmidt, the former CEO of Google, said we create as much information every two days -- about five exabytes -- as all the information created from the dawn of civilization until 2003."

                              No. Plaque is on your teeth. There might be a coprolite in a while though.

                                        Last Friday I bought some stuff at a convenience store/Shell station on Hatteras Island for $30.80.

                                        Today I was checking the VISA account and there were 2 charges for $30.80, one on Friday and one on Sunday.

                                        I called VISA to report a duplicate charge.

                                        I did buy fuel on Sunday, but I figured there was no way it was exactly $30.80 worth of fuel.

                                        I had a receipt from Friday but not Sunday because the fuel pump printer was broken.

                                        After reporting the duplicate to VISA I remembered that I had taken a picture of the pump because someone had put a Biden sticker on it.

                                        Now I am waiting on hold to tell VISA to forget about the dispute.

                                        So Mr. Biden saved the Blue Whale convenience store from the hassle of disputing the dispute.

                                        50f759a0-843a-4b31-a214-cadf994fb05f-image.png
