Eh, my dad called my mom “mother” most of the time. He was a couple years older than her. Married in 1953, two weeks after they met. He proposed the day after they met. Together until he passed away in 2015 at 84.

“She could get a book deal for the tell-all that everyone would by dying to read.”

As I once overheard a neuroscience professor describe a lab monkey who’d been through a lot: “cortex like swiss cheese”.

“Ouch. I’d feel sorry for her, but she isn’t exactly being held against her will.”

Not sure how they’d go about collecting audio or signals from the tapped wire. Buried recorder? Re-broadcast to a listening station? Listener sitting in a

Now the Russians have a subterranean dung beetle who’s going to be our President.

It’s so annoying. I’d love to figure out a way to add gas tank capacity to my Juke. Even if that meant removing the rear seats.

If it’s up to the individual Scouts or their parents, it doesn’t seem so bad. Chances are most scouts who take part will have Trump-supporter parents, and will be there by choice.
