    I understand about Trump saying some things that weren't proper such as Miss Piggy, about news reporters, calling some Mexicans bad names etc I have also heard about Pence and LGBT conversion therapy, lawsuits, some 13 year old girl, etc However compared to Clinton crimes these seem minuscule to me. It is just bizarre to me the reaction to his election. I don't think Trump is even that socially conservative, fiscally yes. I am going plead stupidity and please someone play devils advocate so I can get a grasp on this crap

  • IT Crowd Absolutely the funniest series I have seen in decades

    I happened upon IT Crowd quite by accident one evening. While I was perusing my Netflix que, I saw a program that was recommended to me becase of my recent selections. I saw that IT Crowd was instant play so I gave it a try and have been hooked since. I absolutely love Moss, Roy and Jan. Jan applies at a job at Reynholm. The interviewer says I see you have computer experience on your resume. Jan replies indeed, I send email, i delete email, i receive email. I know about the mouse, the screen, etc. And he makes her...

    Realizing that simply posting at FR is akin to preaching to the choir, I took it upon myself to post on other sites. Apparently, it was too radical because I have been banned again. The first time, I thought it was simply a computer error, so I re-registered and I was able to post. Now, this morning, I realize I must have said something way off because the same thing has occurred. I guess a 54 year old female pharmacist, who goes to church regularly, donates to animal charities, belongs to the garden club, likes to travel, read biographies, but...
  • Movie Recommendation- Sophie Scholl The Final Days

    12/11/2008 6:58:53 AM PST · by mel · 55 replies · 1,037+ views
    Sophie Scholl was executed by guillotine by Third Reich for her Hitler resistance activities. She was found guilty of distributing leaflets at college and for this she was killed. This is a dramatization of that event, it is a movie that will not leave you and will have you thinking about it for days after viewing. I highly recommend this film.

    Here is the history of my frustration. A couple of years ago, a neighbor installed an iron gate in the alley behind my house. The alley is odd, in that it takes a 90 degree turn and goes by the side of this bit..er woman's house. So her driveway is really the alley and then she turns into her own drive. The house sits fairly close to the alley, but I have seen houses that sit just as close to city streets. At any rate, it didn't make that much difference because the gate was not locked. I understand that...

    6/2/02 | Dr. J Abkik
    This is a short report on Dr. Abkik's talk this morning.I wanted to try to relay it as close to his words as I could. Before 1917, this land was part of the Ottoman Empire. Some prominent Jews went to British and offered financial support in exchange for for help in establishing a homeland in Palestine. This was the birth of the Zionist movement. Zionist refers to political ideology and not religious. There are many Zionists who are atheists. Ben Guron never set foot in a synagogue. The Balfour agreement was signed but there was an interesting sentence that said...
