A god?



Ancient by still worthy?

I drove past a cop on the highway today doing 70 and everything was fine.

I didn't get pulled over or anything. I think a sky-being might have been protecting me, or maybe not. How about you?

I couldn't do it.

I went to our high school to watch a volleyball match and when they did the obligatory "please rise for our national anthem" I couldn't. I ain't doing that no more. Not until the orange smurf in the white house either apologizes for his racist crap or leaves. The KGB* installed this regime, it aint my government and I owe it no respect at all.


* yes I know it's the FSB. Whatever.

Folk song for todays event.

Get on board, little children
Get on board, little children
Get on board, little children
There's room for many-a-more.

I hear the train a comin'
I hear her close at hand
I hear those car wheels rumblin'
And rollin' through the land.

Get on board, little children
Get on board, little children
Get on board, little children
There's room for many-a-more.

The fare is cheap
And all can go.
The rich and poor are there
No second class upon this train
No difference in the fare.

A majority of those 60% want single-payer.
A huge majority of Democratic leaning voters want single payer.

Jill Stein, Susan Sarandon and Ralph Nader walked into a bar...

So what do you think, we should use a serial comma, or not use a serial comma?
