I can't find out what they're attracted to and I can't find their home. There's just a huge trail of them across the patio- one end disappears on one side of the house and the other goes into a crack. I've put out Amdro, but the ants ignore it.

The Cobb County Police Chief, Mike Register, said that he knew what was in Abbot's heart but what came out of his mouth was inexcusable". I agree. Many people didn't. Why is that?

He can't pardon them for crimes against the state. Ain't that great?

Right after Trump tweeted that Mattis said that diplomatic options were never over or something like that which sounded very much like a contradiction of what The Donald tweeted. So Mattis felt a strong need to restate what he said so that The Donald wouldn't get mad at him. Problem is what he said made no sense. It doesn't have to. As long as The Donald is satisfied that is all that matters. Whoopee! :( less

Exclude only those who are below the poverty line. How much more wall could that pay for? All?

Those who are kind don't lie or cheat or betray or harm or undermine or sabotage or insult or attack or collude or conspire or embarrass or humiliate or ridicule. Kindness includes many superb traits. How we treat one another matters. Of course POLS are fair target for everyone and EXCLUDED. They don't count. They are mostly always out for themselves and don't give a diddly about us. We return the favor by calling them out every time they screw up or screw us. Fair. All we do is just shine a light on them..spotlight...hotlight...microscope. SIGH less

However, this same college actively discriminated against my daughter because she has a disability.. and the discrimination wasn't based on her actual disability.. but on a perception of it.. They hadn't actually even met my daughter when the principle made the decision.. Now, see that's wrong.. I know it's wrong, everyone else knows it's wrong.. and it's not acceptable for the college to treat people that way... So that leaves me with what to do about it? I've (almost) made sure my daughter is ok now, she way more than meets the criteria for the course in EVERY way, but has decided not to do that course as she fears that the teacher will be horrible to her because of what happened... But I STILL feel it's wrong.. on many levels.. and me being me.. the injustice warrior I am feels that this cannot be swept to one side.. My feeling is that the college needs to face up to what they did.. to be made VERY aware that ... less

The DoDo Bird IS extinct but it far better represents the America of today, 2017, all things considered. Doesn't it? The DoDo Bird is a clumsy flightless extinct bird. When you call a human a DoDo Bird the dictionary says the following: "A dull-witted, slow-reacting person with old-fashioned conservative or outmoded ideas. A thing that is outmoded or obsolete". We are no longer Eagles but DoDo Birds. Whether we wish to admit it or not. less

Some are apologists for those who ridicule/poke fun at/demean/deride anything at any time because they insist it was "just a joke" "Sarcasm". At whose expense? For what purpose? To what end? Does it matter? It should. Does it?
