“Doctor said you gon’ DIE.”

2 quick corrections:

Get tickets in advance for Independence Hall. Also it’s a federally controlled facility so they do not allow weapons of any kind, i.e. pocketknives. It’s similar to TSA rules and you will have to walk through a metal detector. So if you carry a knife in your pocket on your keychain like I always do, leave it at your…

TL;DR

My favorite saltine recipe is rather complex:

Candyman is one of the very few horror movies I’ve seen in the theater and it scared the everloving bejeezus out of me. I haven’t watched it again to this day (or its sequel, which I hear is even scarier). However what set it apart from other horror movies for me was that it actually had a plotline, a good story, and…

I’d rather have the spiders. Centipedes are creepy as fuck.

IMO the biggest problem with black widows, by far, is that they tend to reside in places around your home like the garage, in the holes of bricks or cinder blocks, or under the stairs where if you *do* need to access those areas, the encounter tends to be (a) up-close, and (b) a surprise to both parties—hence the…

This white person knows what a Black and Mild is, but I wasn’t aware of its status as a “thing” in black culture.

My God, what is happening to the world when first I find myself agreeing with Lindsey Graham, then Mark Sanford, then RAND F!#@*$!~ PAUL. These are crazy times.

Osteen is a scamming con artist and this generation’s Jim Bakker (minus the suppressed homosexual activity, I imagine). My skin crawls every time I see someone I know quote him like he’s some sort of modern day Confucius.

Headline is slightly misleading - this is where you can see the next TOTAL solar eclipse. There are other solar eclipses happening, including an annular in 2023.

Middle ground: dress nicely in slacks and a polo or button-down. You can always remove a tie in-flight. I have stopped wearing jeans on airplanes because they are incredibly UNcomfortable in those tiny little seats. I also stopped wearing shorts for similar reasons. A pair of dress khakis makes the flight so much…

Pence is dangerous and terrifying. However, he’s terrifying in a conventional way, the evil we know. Trump is not. With Pence I worry about stuff like women’s rights, LGBTQ rights, and classic GOP suppression of minorities and poor people. But it’s stuff we could reverse over time. With Trump I worry about stuff…

That’s not self-awareness, that’s “my attorney instructed me to say”...

Most of these people give me a cold shudder, but...

Those aren’t categories of classification; they’re designations of Top Secret having additional restrictions. SCI, for instance. There’s also a particular TS clearance for nuclear information and for NATO information. But there is no “double top secret” or “black ops secret” or anything like that.

Yep. I’ve had some form of security clearance for over 20 years but in all that time, I’ve only viewed classified information once. And it was basically just to show me what classified material looks like. Classification can come for reasons as mundane as publishing a boring photograph could reveal who took it, or…

Are we really talking about this again? Someone has an obsession problem.

Is that...Pope?
