I can almost never get myself to honk and when I do, I almost always regret it.

The Charlotte airport has always been one of my least favorite airports. Unfortunate that it’s the one where I live.

When I took a Russian history class in college, the first day we discussed in detail the size and climate of Russia, since both have hugely impacted its history.

Wouldn’t at least some of those low income voters be retirees who are living off savings and a little social security income? I’d love to see this chart by “wealth” too to see if it has a similar distribution.

I recently mailed the DMV a paper application and a check for a new type of specialty license plate, thinking I might see it in a month. Received my plate less than a week later.

The one time I went to the Weenie Roast was when a group of German exchange students was visiting. They really did not understand how the Weenie Roast was supposed to be fun.

This is extra maddening because Dems could tie these other issues back to healthcare if they wanted to. Trans healthcare bans affect healthcare! Mass deportations include people who work as home health aides, people who work in nursing homes, people who do the cleaning and the laundry in hospitals!
