Did anyone save the lists of who is complying and who is refusing the DEI vendetta? I thought I did but I guess not. Please share if you can? Thanks!

I have not had my printer hooked up in over a year. Ran out of ink, decided I didn't need it since retiring, but decided to print some coloring pages for the grands. I got the new laser print cartridge in, np. But I forgot how to load the paper! TGFT internet.

I agree.

I immediately block. I'm not here to shop for a financial advisor or whatever else.

I live in Iroquois County. There are quite a few theories as to where the word came from. The one your child is most likely referring to is where it's translated as "horrible man", but there are so many more guesses that it's hard to know.

First snow today at my house in IL and my 6 year old grandson loves it. Nana, not so much. I love winter, as long as I can watch it happening from the window or with someone else cleaning off the car and driving!

What can we do about it? Citizens United and the Reagan presidency with its tax breaks started the downward spiral but without having a real say in government I fear we're already screwed and just running over the rapids toward the waterfall trying to grab anything to save our lives.

Still not sleeping well, but more, at least. Trying to come up with ideas to combat the fake and/or click bait based media that the right seems to follow. You good?

Just send your address. I'm hungry! That sounds delicious!

Veterans Day program at our local high school (all the schools around bussed in students to sing, my 6 yr old g-son among them). Ryan Mustered gave a talk about giving thanks to our vets. He got so choked up, asking us to live a life of worth & to protect everyone in the days to come. So say we all.
