Silly question, but per this post it requires both ends to have a “telephone number.” I prefer FaceTime/FB Messenger because you can communicate via e-mail address instead. Not everyone has a “phone”; some folks use FT/Messenger on an iPod/iPad, e.g. A small quibble, I know...

Without reading the linked article (I’m far too busy filling in and reading comments!), my takeaway is that we should avoid the Cheesecake Factory under any circumstances. I’ve never eaten at one, and don’t intend to start now, despite a lifelong love of cheesecake itself. This place sounds like the chain version of…

I always hated this a-hole; knowing he’s also a Trump supporter almost makes me feel sorry for the dick. Almost, but not quite. I believe he’s just a very stupid human being. Hope he enjoys life at the car dealership.

What in the wide, wide world of sports does Bill’s alleged behavior have to do with his wife’s quest for the Presidency? Was she accused of holding the victims down? Please. I am getting damned sick and tired of people attacking her for anything he did or may have done. This is almost as big a “nothinburger” as the…

I understand the next Summer Games will be held in Aleppo or possibly South Sudan. Well-played, IOC.

In case of nuclear attack:

My first thought, too. “Just add water! Makes its own gravy in your mouth!!” I guess it really does pay to “RTFA.”

In all fairness, they were Trump brand Chinese flags.

Me too...of course, it was on the first three holes...

I swear I think most people watch car racing just for the crashes. To each his own...

I’ll put in a vote for the Rubbermaid storage containers. Ordered a set a few weeks ago (thanks, Lifehacker) and they are as advertised. The big one holds a carton of greens, and the small is great for half a tomato. Would buy again.

I have ever received voice mail messages from men with heavy Indian accents, claiming to be from the IRS. Don’t ever do business with a government agency over the telephone; do it in writing. Also, too, my landline is pretty much exclusively for scammers and solicitors. Caller ID, leave me a message, maybe I’ll call…

That’s like, your opinion, man. This is the Internet; I feel free to criticize your taste and sense of humor because they differ from mine.

He is an insecure little six-year old, hiding in the body of a 70-year old man. He overcompensates for this by telling the world how tough he is. Don’t hold your breath waiting for him to pick a fight with someone he knows he can’t intimidate. He’s a fraud.

tbh, I just drink it out of the (empty) jar sometimes. Made my sister-in-law very uneasy once...but she has a weak stomach as it is. I now commit this act only in the privacy of my own home. I’ll try your recipe!

My sister enjoys the occasional “pickleback.” I have never tried one, and wikipedia says it’s a shot of whisky (or whiskey, if you prefer), followed by a shot of pickle brine. I dunno...I’ll stick with it neat or on the rocks. Vodka has no flavor, so...drink up, Shriners!

Why do idiot fans think they are playing the game? If the foul is back a few rows, I have zero problems with an attempted catch. If there is a chance your player, or even the opposing team’s can make the play? Back off, Jack. You’re just there to watch. See Maier, Jeffrey or Bartman, Steve. And good for Votto for…

I appreciate the contributions he has made to the team, but it’s time for him to retire. He will make a fantastic hitting coach for some team; I wouldn’t be too surprised to see him working for the Yankees in that capacity soon. The current occupant of that job doesn’t seem to be getting it done.

“Run, runner!” My personal favorite part of the movie was Jenny Agutter wearing a very revealing dress. Gosh, she was a sexy woman. Bet she still is!

Indeed! There is no arguing with taste. And I HATE Gatorade. It’s made with HFCS, which I avoid not so much for health reasons, but that it tastes like crap. Overly sweet, with a fine chemical aftertaste. The stuff should be illegal. None in my fine pickle juice cocktail, though!
