Guy here, and I prefer feminine voices because I perceive them as more trustworthy.

Yeah, except the Star tried to stop their original reporter from pursuing the story. They only published after he resigned, kept working the story and published it elsewhere. The paper claims to have assigned another guy after the first one resigned, but the holes in its first report suggest that’s bogus and the paper

Am I alone in NOT considering the mom in Arkangel to be an unsympathetic character or bad mother? The point of the caesarean, I thought, was that SHE worried it meant she was inadequate, though the others assured her it wasn’t so. She used Arkangel only after being scared to death when her daughter wandered off while

My theory about Detroit drivers was that they figured it didn’t matter if they busted their cars because that just meant job security at the auto plant.

If Josh Gordon is Josh Gordon he’ll get suspended two games into next season for selling weed on the sidelines.

Just thinking how nice he lived long enough that the lead here could say “his husband” rather than “a close friend” or “an associate.”

Hanson was home field for my now-dead alma mater. Got to use the field once during a charity marathon touch football game. Seemed like a very large billiards table.

Yes, but it WAS a compromise between the Northern position (you don’t count slaveswhen allotting representation because you won’t let them vote) and the Southern (count all our slaves so we don’t end up so far outnumbered in the House).

It’s not unusual — see cattle mutilation / UFO scares — for initial exams to misidentify the causes of missing limbs or mutilation, especially when you’re talking about a body that’s been in the water for 10

1. Yes, Northwestern and Illinois have a rivalry.

The forefathers had laws like that. The Alien and Sedition Act. Its use against political rivals is well recorded. Also see the jailing of socialists for speaking out against US participation in World War I.

Identity Evropa, a white racist group that especially targets college students.

If the bartender had posted this, it would be bad but somewhat understandable. But the restaurant? Hey, if you think your workers deserve more money, here’s a tip: raise their wages. Posting this is hypocritical.

First set at 28, and then off and on for 30 years now. Worst was when an idiot radiologist could not recognize a stone and my doctor would therefore not refer me. (I hate HMOs.)

Badger, possum, whatever. They all come from South America.
