For small rodents like a mouse, consider a burial at sea, in the WC. or an afterlife in the waste to energy incinerator.

Ranch dressing instead of pizza sauce would be so Iowa.

So far we know that Priyanka’s NYC home is equipped with a large home theater, which she evidently doesn’t use and only has, because it is expected of her.  And now we know that her luxurious kitchen is also a Potemkin kitchen.  How many more rooms are there, going to waste in Priyanka’s apartment?

“Rattlesnakes don’t care how nice your house is or what kind [of] car you drive.” Clearly snake catchers don’t go out on dates very often.

Bernie was in the same situation in 2016.

After years of reading that putting on a CON is two years of a great deal of work, it is easy to imagine that impresarios putting them on, might not be sanguine about more workload and might be paranoid that they will end up with the work and responsibility regardless of promises to the contrary.  

These photos are in the public domain if published before 1923. If they were published after that year, then the copyright begins on January 1, 1978. The photographer legally owns the copyright, so, however the rights to his estate were transferred determine the current owner. But, were they published, even on a…

Harvard would have no rights, then, but I think, more likely, the photos were not copyrighted until the last century.  If they had been published before copyrighted, then the rights might not be legit.

This isn’t the same situation as an employee who violated social media policy. You have a public employee, possibly protected by a Union, who has been doxed and exposed by illegally acquired documents. It is doubtful that a school district can use that information to fire him. I mean, they can, but they might end up…

I am curious about when the photos were copyrighted, and about whether the copyright is legal. Obviously, if the photos were copyrighted, contemporaneously, then the copyright is expired. Although copyrights on photos probably was not possible back then. So, there has to be a more recent copyright. But, if the photos…

There was evidence that taking Mammograms at age forty actually had a negative health outcome for women, because so many false positives resulted in unnecessary treatments or surgeries. The medical profession wanted to start mammography years later, but women protested this, because they want unnecessary medical…

If you graduate from High School, “Career ready,” then College is a waste of money. A problem with community colleges is that they tend to prepare students for a relative few careers and minimally. The jobs they prepare students for are often jobs that are chosen less for demand in the labor market and more for…

Having worked in a crime lab, but in the distant past, I would say that if you are looking back decades ago, that stories like this are only the tip of the iceberg of bogus lab testing in routine and minor cases. What usually happens is that you have only a few technicians and a backlog of hundreds of cases. Any…

There are a great many nutritional supplements, medications, and medical devices on the market that predate FDA authority to review or regulate them, and many of which the FDA never had authority to regulate. Obviously San Francisco allowed dispensaries before legalization.   But, even with Marijuana legalized, where…

I used to sell a Camel brand, one of the Turkish flavors, I think.

Well, they are little cigars, and wraps, but not quite the same thing as a cigarette.  Banning those too has been periodically under consideration, particularly since most of the sales are legal as singles which are wrapped loosies and packages of up to three.  

They are taking away most vape flavors too, now!

What if there was a party in the room and some ladies used the sink as a urinal?  What if someone marinated their false teeth in the coffeemaker as people do?

She might have been trying to be heard by some of us older men who might have had problems hearing her usual voice, because our hearing can find certain higher frequencies more challenging. As she dealt with more aging male executives and bureaucrats in her career, perhaps she adjusted her voice to avoid the need to…

Clove cigarettes were banned by the FDA in 2009:
