as one of the comments said, had the people who are housing her and financing the suit, used the $ to pay for her tuition instead, she would have been fine. i imagine she would have much better shot at student aid if she has no parental $ backing.

Wait until they get tired of supporting her and she claims the friend’s dad touched her inappropriately.... she has already claimed that against her own father.

It is good. They have 4 different sauces on the table so you can select what you want.

I always get pulled pork cause it’s less messy and less work for me.

They have cinnamon apples as a side dish, too.

Dave’s not here, man.

No, really, the only one anywhere near is in Erie.

Yeah, and if people fighting voter ID just spent the money to get the poor “disenfranchised” people IDs, they would be done by now.

But that doesn’t further the cause.

My grandson is here:

http://www.envisionexperience.com/explore-our-programs/careers-in-national-security

Not only did this require 2 plane tickets from Aiken, SC, he had to bring 5 days worth of “professional clothing” to participate. And Dad had to take a week’s vacation from work. Grandson’s a sophomore in HS.

This is the National Youth Leadership Forum for Careers in National Security, Intelligence, & Defense. And it’s held at the Pentagon which is why parents cannot come along. Luckily my grandson has a very good head on his shoulders (as do his father and mother). But, I still don’t trust my government.

Ironically, I had never heard of Smokey Bones till now.

And ...subsequently..now I am starving at the worst possible time!

Somehow that potato I’ve got baking, I surmise..will be less than satiating...

The left just keeps on singing
Their same old communist song,
A nice new verse here and there-
What could possibly go wrong?

The philosophy is superannuated-
Any claim to relevance is done
A socialist dump is a hellhole
Where nobody really has any fun

Except, of course the rulers-
Small wonder the liberals see
That example as their utopia
At the expense of you and me...

I don’t eat meat for breakfast-yogurt, a piece of fresh fruit and some sunflower kernels for me-

I got ashes on my way to deliver an invoice-which the customer actually paid half of-I split it with my compadre-it will buy us both groceries for the week-I’ve got a can of tuna, fresh eggs, an avocado, onions and tomatoes-smells like lunch to me...

I actually saw a liberal meme today blaming the current debt on decades of Conservatives wanting lower taxes - no mention of out of control spending

xsboy's interview is in Basking Ridge, NJ. i had never heard of it, but xshub looked it up this AM and we were astounded at the demographics-- 89.2% caucasian, and a median household income of $105K, 59.7% college educated or higher. Dang, we have no place like that around here!
