My parents never had it. My husband, who is older than I am, never had it. However, some older people associate people in my age group with participation trophies. I never got one, but then again, my friends and I just didn’t do participation.I‘ve never even seen a participation trophy in real life. Are those for real or are those just made up right-wing memes? less

My Cornish great-grandfather was a captain in the mines and my Slovenian great-grandparents were storekeepers. The immigrants faced hard work, poor living conditions, dangerous work, and discrimination. But 100 years later all these immigrants have assimilated and helped this county to thrive. https://www.mnopedia.org/immigration-iron-range-1880-1930

Goat grazing is one of the easiest ways to address the overgrowth that can lead to fires, as goats can eat weeds and a range of invasive brush that other animals cannot, Genevieve Church, executive director of nonprofit City Grazing, told Axios San Francisco co-author Megan Rose Dickey.
https://mail.yahoo.com/b/folders/1/messages/AOruqbg2ch0aZAZPaA5byK3jgBI?.src=ym&reason=myc&folderType=INBOX&offset=0&unblockNow=falseNot only is it environmentally friendly, you don't have to pay goats or give them perks or sign on bonuses. It's a heck of a lot less costly to do this than fight all those fires that are so destructive. less

It proposes an investment in the development of vertical-takeoff-and-landing vehicles. The creation of hives of industry sparked by cutting off imports from China. And a population surge by encouraging would-be-parents to get on with procreation. The part about encouraging would-be-parents to get on with procreation cracked me up - only Trump would include something like that in a contest. Cheers! less

The song features Trump reciting the Pledge of Allegiance, interspersed with a male prison choir singing The Star-Spangled Banner. The song ends with a chant of U-S-A - U-S-A - U-S-A!. Personally I think it is awful. Robert Maguire, research director for the watchdog Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, said “I have never been more repulsed by the mere existence of a song than one sung by a former president who tried to do a coup and a literal ‘choir’ of insurrectionists who tried to help him.” Cheers and happy weekend! less

So I took a new tablecloth out of the linen drawer and placed it on a kitchen chair. Then I took everything off the table and wiped it down. Then I put the old tablecloth back on the table and put all the stuff back on it. The silliest part was after my wife got up my feelings were a little hurt because she didn't thank me for putting on a new tablecloth. Took me a day to realise the reason she didn't thank me was because I didn't put the new one on the table. Cheers and happy weekend! less

Nothing like swift justice. May his wife and son rest in peace and his surviving child find some comfort knowing that justice has been served.

These words are used all the time, not just by a few people. Do you know what they mean?

I told them sure but they better let me get it down for them so they don't break it or get hurt. It was over 7 feet long and it took both of them to carry it home. They were pretty happy to have the biggest icicle in the hood. I really like those 2 kids because they are always having fun playing outside instead of in the house watching TV or playing video games. Cheers and happy weekend! less

At that time the train company's were saying it would cost then over 3 billion dollars to follow the new rules. And I think Trump saw it as a opportunity to make a few bucks so he held out his hand and told the train company's he would reverse the rule if they greased his palm. Cheers and happy weekend!
