From the NY Times, August 30, 1993:

Sounds like Barbra has reproduced the street section of The House on the Rock.

This is why we need unions: because individuals - including parents of working individuals - are not aware of their legal rights and are similarly unaware that making a phone call to the state Department of Labor will usually (iffy under Republican governors) get the situation resolved.

I’m thinking this would be a great group activity for a bunch of retired feminists.

This is why I’ve never understood why so many tea partiers don’t care about police brutality - your tax dollars are going to satisfy these huge verdicts! You hate taxes! You should hate police brutality!

My last two backup drives were Seagates. Both of them died after a bit more than a year of intermittent service. Same thing with my portable Seagate drive - I got a year out of it. So it’s not so much $150 for 4TB, it’s $150 for one year’s use. No deal.

Congratulations, you lucky person: you, too, can field tricky reference questions in your spare time!

THIS. Oh, the stories I could tell. But they’re retail, and not in food service. One guy was so notorious he not only earned his own nickname, I ended going home on my breaks because he used to come into the break room after me, PLUS my coworkers would phone me at home and warn me when he’d show up.

We’ve had certain coworkers try it where I work. Everyone objected strongly. Kids are noisy, sometimes smelly, disruptive, and spread contagious illnesses like wildfire. Also, in the interest of the kids, the majority of workplaces will expose them to stuff they really shouldn’t be exposed to: adult language and…

I returned to an article I’d read recently about Washington State agencies allowing parents to bring infants of up to six months to work with them.

My brother was asked out by his barber. He was having a really good time dating her, until the sixth date, when she smilingly delivered the ultimatum: “I really, really like you, but I can’t keep seeing you unless you are willing to accept Jesus into your heart.”

“It’s akin to the state flying a Confederate battle flag atop the King Center in Atlanta against the wishes of King supporters,” he added.

Palmer won’t face charges for shooting the lion, but one of his non-fans is facing charges for writing “Perv, Scum” on his office sign.

Dollars to donuts his parents are busily telling everyone he didn’t mean it, he’s not a danger, and this is all overblown. Like the parents of John David LaDue.

According to my coworker, your FB friend is wrong. It’s not elderberry syrup, it’s seaweed pills. Seaweed pills cure everything. They cured her seizure disorder when her doctors couldn’t do anything!

“I find her not genuine a lot of the time,” she told The Daily Mail. “When we’d go out, she was a completely different person in public than at home and I had a hard time with that. It’s like two different people.”

The fundiegelicals claim that being born again means that any time they choose to sin, all they have to do is tell Jesus they’re sorry and he’ll instantly forgive them.

No, they were Minnesotans. Our state motto should probably be “White food for white people” in honor of the bland Norwegian fare that most of us grew up on. In Scandinavian cookery, black pepper is SPICY.

The person who told me this (who works in our p-card office and thus oversees all this stuff) didn’t provide that detail. But when she told me the story, she was laughing incredulously while telling it. So they didn’t get away with it.

Yes, he would still be an American citizen. However, the birthers and other RWNJs have their own fantasy version of US law (and the Constitution) in which they claim that one has to be born within the US and/or both parents must be US citizens.
