My family played spades, bones, uno, checkers and chess. All of them were games known to involve shouting.

Depends. We playing jokers? We playing deuces high? If this hand is for a straight game (no jokers, deuces low), that’s 7 books.

1. Missouri is not ‘southern’.

1. It’s pronounced cocola. All beverages are either drank or cocola. That is all there is to that.

When white folks got to north america, they came with disease into a multi-ethnic cross section of societies on the back end of a couple imperial collapses. People got sick and died at a rate of 70 to 90% depending on which estimates you use. Whole villages were wiped out AND the surviving expansionist native

Again, what makes this peninsula so important (besides imperial narrative) that more than a third of world’s

Absolutely. My point was that, given this situation in which someone was on a full out rampage, he lived at least partly because the police didn’t get there first. This dude here is alive because 1: unarmed folks subdued him, and 2: he’s not black or native.

Just a quick note that it might be in everyone’s best interest to not call the police first if mental illness is involved. When responders DON’T have guns, they might attempt to handle things without shooting.

There are no other versions. Other people have recorded songs by the same name and with the same lyrics, but Eartha Kitt is ALWAYS in a category by herself. There’s a reason that particular story line in Boomerang is believable.

You got a bunch of the best known, but you missed some of the best, to wit:
