There were a multitude of idiotic things said during Round 1 and 2 of the CNN Republican Debate, but something Santorum said just turned into a splinter under my skin and has bugged me all night. It just so happens to be in a section of debate about […]
When I saw this statistical meme going around on Facebook, which was posted by Mint Press News, I did not believe that the US has only seen 17 years of no combat, so I had to check it out for myself. Although the meme says "war," I’m sure […]
A trip down Toyland Memory Lane. Remember these? I played with the ’70’s toys, and remember the younger kids playing with the ’80’s toys while I discovered video games. Frogger was my favorite. I never did get into Pac Man nor Mario Brothers, though.
